FIVE DECADES OF HISPANIC MEDIA & SPORTS EXPERIENCE
Spanish-language boxing, Golden Gloves and Los Angeles Thunderbirds Roller Games coverage from the historic Olympic Auditorium.
In 1985, Elias founded The Hollywood Channel, an independent Hollywood production company focused extensively on programming for U.S. Hispanic, Latin American and international audiences.
In 1988, he created Hablemos de Cine, which debuted on Univision and brought Hollywood movies, stars, interviews and entertainment directly to Hispanic television audiences.
In 2007, Elias joined UFC as Director of Spanish Productions, helping introduce and develop the UFC product for Hispanic television audiences.
The challenge wasn't simply translating fights.
MMA itself had to be explained.
Fighters had to be introduced.
Spanish MMA terminology had to be developed.
Play-by-play and color teams had to be identified and trained.
Programming had to be created between events.
In 2012, Elias joined King of the Cage as President, Hispanic Market, developing Spanish-language programming and Hispanic audience strategy.
In 2017, he was appointed COO and Vice President of Final Fight Championship, participating in the European promotion's expansion into the United States and its Las Vegas operations.
Today, that experience comes together through Elias Hispanic Sports Media.

THE DIFFERENCE
- We understand television.
- We understand production.
- We understand combat sports.
But most importantly:
WE UNDERSTAND THAT HISPANIC MARKET DEVELOPMENT BEGINS WITH THE AUDIENCE — NOT THE LANGUAGE BUTTON.
