One Fighting Championship and AMC Live Group form Partnership in China

ONE Fighting Championship™ (ONE FC), Asia’s largest mixed martial arts (MMA) organization with a 90% market share, announced today that they have agreed to a blockbuster deal with world-renowned event promoter, AMC Live Group. This historical partnership marks the entry of ONE FC into China, the world's most populous country. ONE FC will be holding an unprecedented ten events a year in ten different cities across the country, starting with 4 events this year.


Not sure about all of you, but I'm actually pretty stoked that my fellow friends in China will be able to experience the wonderful world of MMA too, especially if it's in partnership with AMC Live Group. AMC Live Group is the premier event promotion in Asia. Since its establishment in 2009, AMC Live Group has expanded its business to encompass all components of live entertainment, from large-scale variety shows, fan clubs, signings, artist management and endorsements, corporate image planning and marketing, public relations, event planning and execution, choreography, ticketing and equipment leasing. The organization has successfully organized concerts and tours for international superstars such as Elton John, Faye Wong, Eason Chan, Jay Chou and Stefanie Sun.


ONE FC CEO Victor Cui stated, “This monumental agreement will redefine the sport of mixed martial arts forever! ONE Fighting Championship™ will become the first world class mixed martial arts organization ever to hold an event in mainland China. China is the birthplace of martial arts like Sanda, Wushu, and Kung Fu and there is a rich martial arts tradition. ONE FC will be available to over one billion people in China alone and will bring adrenaline-pumping mixed martial arts action to ten different cities across the country a year. The landscape of mixed martial arts will be changed forever as China welcomes ONE FC!”


AMC Live Group CEO, Adrian Leong, stated, “AMC Live Group is the organization of choice for live entertainment events across Asia. We have a world class stable of entertainment acts and are happy to add the most exciting sporting event in Asia, ONE Fighting Championship, to that illustrious group. We are very excited at the potential of mixed martial arts in China and believe that it will be a huge success given the track record of ONE FC.”
