Zedekiah Montanez is a perfect 4-0 to start his MMA career, and on Friday he’ll put that record to the test against Roberto Romero Hernandez. The Mexican fighter is coming off a first-round knockout of Carlos Tenorio via body punch at a Combate Global event last month and now will headline another excellent six-fight Combate Global card. You can stream the action live on Paramount+.
The main Combate Global fight card will also feature Cristian Barraza fighting for the third time in the last four months as he takes on Diego Silva in a 125-pound bout. Then, Melissa Amaya and Gisselle Garcia Villanueva will make their professional debuts in a women’s flyweight matchup. The Combate Global fight card begins at 10:30 p.m. ET, and you can catch all the action live on Paramount+.

Combate Global picks for Oct. 22 fight card in Miami
Before tuning into Friday’s fight card, you need to see the picks from SportsLine’s MMA insider Andrew Gombas. With more than 1,200 selections tracked by the third-party monitoring service Bet MMA, Gombas has shown a 10 percent return on investment for his followers. In 2020, $100 bettors who tailed his picks were up $9,200.
For Friday’s Combate Global fight card, Gombas is picking Diego Silva to knock out Cristian Barraza. As mentioned, this will be Barraza’s third Combate Global appearance since July and the first two didn’t go well for the Chilean fighter. Barraza lost a decision to Jesus Santos Aguilar in July and then he was submitted by Alejandro Gonzales last month.
“Diego Silva enters this fight having won three of his last four. He takes on submission specialist Cristian Barraza on Friday,” Gombas told SportsLine. “Barazza has won six pro fights, and five of those have come by submission. I believe Silva has the defensive grappling to keep this one on the feet and finish his opponent.”
