The XFC showcases both male and female fighters, advocates young MMA fighters, and has produced stadium fight cards throughout the USA: Florida, Kentucky, Tennessee, Michigan, as well as in South America: Brazil, São Paulo, Campinas, & Araraquara.
Founded in 2006, the XFC had a vision to seek out, sign, and brand a new generation of Mixed Martial Arts Fighters - XFC Fighters. With the world’s fastest growing sport being only 20 years young, Xtreme Fighting Championships strive to bring you the most exciting and well rounded MMA fighters from around the globe. Priding themselves on blending the next generation of rising superstars, with some of today's top veteran'd fighters, the XFC believes the most talented MMA Fighters have yet to be paired against each other. Because of this belief, the organization’s popularity has grown exponentially ever since its inception.
In 2007, the promotion set a statewide record of attendance, drawing over 13,000 fans to the St. Pete Times Forum in Florida. Every XFC event held at the Forum since then has brought over 10,000 fans. In April 2009, XFC held its first televised fight card in Tennessee, aired on HDNet (now AXStv). Throughout 2008-2012, the promotion hosted 4-6 events per year and became one of the only MMA company's to travel and host shows throughout the USA and Internationally in Greece. In 2013 the XFC announced an International partnership taking them to South America, where they named Edward Jung as CEO, Myron Molotky as President, Jose Sanchez (Vice President), Eduardo Duarte (Matchmaker), Randy Szenas (Director of Operations), TJ Alcock (Director of Communications), & Brook Alcock (Director of Marketing). The promotion also announced a broadcast partnership with the largest open broadcaster in South America, Rede TV!.
Along with a new company structure, a renewed platform for the future of all XFC fighters was defined; The International Tournament & Super-Fight Series. In 2014 the Season I Series', televised on Rede TV! and streamed worldwide via the XFC website, shattered all prior network ratings. In mid 2014, the XFC announced content deals with several top broadcasters throughout the World; Terra TV, HBO America, & UOL.

In 2015, the XFC will be promoting events in N. America, South America, and expanding their relationships into Europe and Asia.
History
XFC 1: Dynamite
The organization's first stadium event was called XFC 1: Dynamite and was staged at the St. Pete Times Forum in Tampa, Florida on November 11, 2007. The show officially drew over 11,000 MMA fans, tripling the former record for attendance at an MMA event in the state of Florida.[1] XFC president John Prisco claims that the actual attendance number was closer to 13,000.[2]
XFC 2: Rage in the Cage
The XFC returned to the St. Pete Times forum on March 2, 2008, with a show called XFC 2: Rage in the Cage. Among the celebrities in attendance was former professional wrestling star Hulk Hogan, who watched his nephew David Bollea win his professional debut on the XFC undercard.[3] Bollea had issued a to boxer-versus-MMA fighter challenge to boxing champion Floyd Mayweather leading up to his fight.[4]
XFC 3: Battle in the Bluegrass
XFC 3: Battle in the Bluegrass event was the company's first show staged outside of Florida, taking place at the Rupp Arena in Lexington, Kentucky and drew 6,000 fans on Saturday, June 7; a small riot broke out after the main event, when local favorite Benny Stanley was choked out by Scott Porter in 13 seconds, leading to one arrest. Another known local Brad Chamberlain won via KO in the first round.[5] WNKY, Lexington's NBC News affiliate, reported that XFC set the Kentucky statewide record for MMA attendance with the promotion.[6]
XFC 4: Judgement in the Cage
XFC 4: Judgement in the Cage[7] returned to the St. Pete Times Forum in Tampa on June 28, 2008 and drew over 10,700 fans, at the time the second largest crowd for an MMA promotion in Florida history.[8]—trailing only XFC's first Dynamite for the overall Florida attendance record. John "Mulatto Mauler" Mahlow defeated Eben "The Big O" Oroz by unanimous decision for the XFC lightweight title in the main event, and in the undercard, the much-heralded Matt Juncal—a three-time high school state wrestling champion from nearby Brandon, Florida and a former college All American wrestler[9]—made his MMA debut, defeating the also-debuting Jeff Mansir by submission in the first round.
XFC 5: Return of the Giant
The main event of XFC's fifth show, XFC 5: Return of the Giant, which took place on September 13, 2008 at the St. Pete Times Forum, featured the MMA comeback of Gan McGee.[10] McGee, who stands six-foot, 10-inches tall and is known as "The Giant," had last fought on American soil during a UFC Pay-Per-View, when he battled heavyweight champion Tim Sylvia for UFC's world title. The fight ended up being highly controversial; Sylvia defeated McGee, but tested positive for steroids in a post-fight drug test. Sylvia was suspended by the Nevada Boxing Commission for six-months and was stripped of his title,[11] but McGee was never granted a rematch, nor was the loss expunged from his record. McGee faced Johnathan Ivey, a 250-pound brawler who stated that McGee "should've stayed retired.[12]"
Ivey failed to deliver on his pre-fight promise: a record-setting 11,200 fans watched McGee defeat Ivey by second round knockout.[13]
XFC 6: Clash of the Continents
On December 5, 2008, XFC closed out the year with its sixth promotion, XFC 6: Clash of the Continents, returning once again to the St. Pete Times Forum. The show featured a heavyweight showdown in the main event, with the top-ranked heavyweight in Africa, South African heavyweight champion Rico Hattingh, against undefeated American heavyweight Chad Corvin.[14] Also on the card was the MMA debut of four-time world female boxing champion of Chevelle Hallback, in the XFC's first-ever female cage fight.[15]
Hallback won by TKO in the first round,[16] and Corvin beat Hattingh, knocking out the South African heavyweight champion.[17]
Among the celebrities in attendance were Linda Hogan, her young boyfriend, and her son Nick Hogan. When the three were introduced to the crowd, the audience booed loudly. Video of the Hogans getting booed at the XFC event aired on E!, TMZ, and celebrity websites like Perez Hilton.[18]
XFC 7: School of Hard Knox
XFC made history on February 20, 2009 when it produced the first-ever professional MMA show in Tennessee state history;[19] the Tennessee state legislature had legalized MMA only months earlier.[20] At XFC 7: School of Hard Knox, former University of Tennessee football player Ovince St. Preux knocked out CT Turner with a kick to the head[21] and Chad Corvin stayed undefeated by stopping the then-6-0 Scott Barrett in the first round.[22]
XFC 8: Regional Conflict
XFC 8 was set in Knoxville on the night of April 25, 2009. Jarrod Card defeated Bruce Connors by unanimous decision in the main event of the evening to claim the XFC featherweight title. Light heavyweight prospect Ovince St. Preux, who has gone on to compete in Strikeforce, submitted his opponent, Ombey Mobley, via calf slicer. Chris Barnett made his pro debut
XFC 9: Evolution
XFC 9 was held in Tampa Bay on September 5, 2009. The card was headlined by a fight between Jon Koppenhaver and Florida native Mikey Gomez. Koppenhaver won the bout via technical knockout early in the third round.
XFC 10: Night of Champions
Remaining in Tampa Bay, XFC hosted their tenth event on March 19, 2010. Jarrod Card submitted Jason Wood with a rear naked choke to retain the XFC featherweight title in the feature bout. Junior Assuncao caught John Mahlow in a guillotine choke in the first round of their bout to capture the XFC lightweight title.
XFC 11: The Next Generation
Tampa Bay saw the eleventh XFC event on July 9, 2010. In the feature bout, Micah Miller knocked out former top ranked Florida featherweight Bruce Connors inside of one round. Miller connected with a knee from the Thai plum and threw a flurry of punches, ending with a left jab.
XFC 12: Mayhem
XFC 12 took place on October 10, 2010 a non sanctioned bout in Kyrenia, Cyprus. In the feature bout, XFC Featherweight Champion Jarrod Card submitted Tony Hervey with a rear naked choke in a 150 lb. catchweight bout. Meanwhile, highly ranked welterweight prospect Joe Ray stopped Gerardo Julio Gallegos in the first round do to a cut over the eye in their bout.
XFC 13: Unstoppable
XFC returned to Tampa Bay for their thirteenth event, which occurred on December 3, 2010. A featherweight title bout between Jarrod Card and Luis Palomino headlined the card. The bout went all five rounds, with Palomino winning a unanimous decision. Chris Barnett defeated Mario Rinaldi by TKO in the second round of their bout, while prospect Joe Ray dropped a split decision to South African Jeremy Smith.[23]
