Ragin Fighting Championship

OUR story

About Us

Veterans of the Industry

Ragin Fighting Championship was born from a passion for martial arts shared by a group of fighters and coaches, including those with UFC-level experience. Based in Acadiana, where so many MMA legends began their journeys, our mission is to create a grassroots movement to nurture and showcase the next generation of talent.

We’re an event promotion built for fighters, by fighters, serving as a springboard from local gyms to larger national stages. Our goal is to be a regional incubator, helping fighters fine-tune their skills and prepare for the next step in their careers. We provide a platform for local athletes to showcase their abilities in front of highly engaged crowds of 1,000+ fans, who cheer loudly with the hope of one day saying, “I saw them when…”

Our events are more than just fights—they’re a celebration of hard work, dedication, and heart. We aim to bring the community together in a family-friendly environment for a night of thrilling action and entertainment. Whether you’re out with family, friends, coworkers, or on a date night, you’ll have fun, meet new people, and feel great supporting regional athletes from right here in your community. Come join us as we build dreams, create memories, and leave it all in the cage.
