Cage Fury Fighting Championships (CFFC) is an American mixed martial arts (MMA) promotion primarily operating in the Northeastern United States. Founded by Felix and Amy Martinez, they promoted their first shows in Atlantic City, New Jersey, launching the careers of fighters such as Kimbo Slice. The last-minute cancellation of its sixth event under the ownership of Felix and Amy Martinez in 2007 signaled its temporary demise; however, it resurfaced nearly four years later when Vineland, New Jersey native Robert Haydak Jr. purchased the organization and began promoting shows. Since then Haydak has re-invented the CFFC brand, bringing it to be considered one of the top Regional MMA Promotions in the United States.

CFFC launched the careers of several Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) fighters such as Aljamain Sterling, Paul Felder, George Sullivan, and Jimmie Rivera among others. They also played host to a number of other fighters that have appeared on the UFC roster such as Carmelo Marrero, Jim and Dan Miller, Nick Catone, Lyman Good, and Zach Makovsky.
