100,000 Fans. 40+ Fighters. Two States. One Night. One Team!

Two of the world’s biggest combat events unfolded on the same night in different states. REX Group delivered seamless protection at both, proving the depth and scale that sets us apart.

REX Group works alongside TKO Global Security to manage UFC fight weeks year-round. From hotel oversight to weigh-ins to fight night, it is a rhythm we know well. But on September 7, the demands reached another level. While one team was in San Antonio, TX securing UFC Noche, another was in Las Vegas, NV protecting one of the biggest boxing events in history.

UFC Noche – San Antonio

UFC events are a constant part of our calendar. UFC Noche in San Antonio was no different in scope. 24/7 hotel and office coverage, fighter movements to press events and workouts, and guest fighter appearances across the city. On fight night, our team came alongside the TKO Global Security Team and brought on local professionals to control octagon security, fighter walks, and venue movements.

Highlights

  • 8 core team for fight week operations
  • 18 guest fighter and card appearance details
  • Friday, Press Conference coverage with 12 professionals
  • Fight night: 8 core team plus 34 local professionals
  • Full coverage of octagon security and fighter walks

While UFC Noche was underway in Texas, our Las Vegas team was managing one of the largest boxing crowds in history.

Canelo vs Crawford – Las Vegas

Las Vegas brought a different scale. For an entire week, two close protection details remained with fighters day and night. Our teams secured hotels and offices, oversaw public workouts at the Fountainbleau host hotel, and managed red carpet arrivals. We worked with production crews from Netflix, ESPN, Ring Magazine and His Excellency, Turki Alalshikh. Press conferences drew crowds in the tens of thousands and streamed worldwide, requiring precision at every movement.

Fight night reached historic proportions: more than 70,000 fans in attendance. REX Group deployed 48 professionals with a 10-man core to control fighter movements, lock down the ring and technical areas, escort VIPs and guest fighters, and provide royal close protection for HE Turki Alalshikh.
