Summary
Active Club, a far-right fight club with links to neo-Nazi groups, has collaborated with a Scandinavian organisation designated as a terrorist organisation by the US Treasury Department.
The group sent members to Sweden to take part in a mixed martial arts event with other affiliated fight clubs from across Europe.
At least one American participant’s identity has not been confirmed but the groups they are part of are core components of the Active Club network.
The founder of Active Club, Robert Rundo, created the event’s propagandistic media arm, Media 2 Rise, in collaboration with known neo-Nazi Allen Michael Goff.
Tvåsaxe, the hosts of the event, are aligned with the Nordic Resistance Movement (NRM), a neo-Nazi group designated as a terrorist organisation in the summer of 2024 by the US State Department.
