Mayhem Promotions is a mixed martial arts (MMA) promotions company dedicated to putting the fans and the fighters first. Our goal is to promote great events with great fighters and to become the organization that fighters in the Midwest want to fight for.

Backed by Combat Consulting LLC, a locally owned sanctioning body based in Chicago, and insured by Francis L. Dean & Associates, a locally owned sports insurance company based in Wheaton, IL. Mayhem Promotions is devoted to becoming the avenue for fighters to turn to in order to expand their career.

In the Midwest, MMA is mainly found underground with small shows and mediocre promotions. The few promotional companies located in the area do not treat their fighters with the respect they deserve. In the end, the fighters are forced to stay unappreciated because they have no other option. Mayhem Promotions wants that to change.

Founded by Jeff and Joe Albin, Mayhem Promotions was created when we realized an innovative MMA promotions company was desperately needed in the Chicagoland area. With new camps being formed regularly and the sport rapidly becoming more and more popular, we knew we had to seize the opportunity and launch a company that provides a different approach to the sport. Mayhem Promotions offers a fresh take on MMA because not only do we understand the fighters’ disciplines, we know first-hand what the fans want: evenly matched opponents, and as a result, quality bouts.

Together we make a great team. With Jeff’s expertise on the business side and Joe’s inside understanding of the sport, we are an invincible combination. Jeff has worked in sales and operations for the past ten years and knows the ins and outs of running a company and keeping it structured. Joe provides the knowledge of mixed martial arts and personally knows the hardships and experiences of the fighters. He is trained in both Jiujitsu and Karate as well as fought in the Golden Gloves here in Chicago.

We fell in love with an idea one year ago and have pushed forward ever since. Mayhem Promotions has established growing relationships with numerous training academies throughout the Midwest. The Mayhem Promotions name is already being recognized by fighters and camps that not only are we a diverse and original promotions company, but we exceed our competition on multiple levels. Mayhem Promotions is truly in business to promote quality fights, for both the fans and the fighters, and want nothing more than to be a genuine component of the sport’s growth.
