Discover strike fighting

Strike Fighting is a combination of the best elements of combat sports removing the grappling and choke outs.
Strikes can be with: fists, elbows, knees, feet, shins; basically, if you can hit someone with it, hit them with it!
It's hard, fast, and brutal. Hit everything but the ground.

Our fighters come from a diverse background of disciplines: MMA, Kickboxing, Muay Thai, Contact Karate and even Boxing. Regardless of your background, just stay inside the ropes.

"I'm a fan and what I see being done by private equity, multi-owner, and publicly traded fight organizations is destroying the sport and hurting careers. Additionally, with the politics of matchmaking, great fighters never have a good career, so I changed all that."
Josh Tolley - Chairman of the SFL
