MMA outside of the UFC

Underground
1

....and outside of Bellator and WSOF as well.

I remember back in the day (when free time wasn't such a luxury) there were so many MMA organizations to follow and so many unique and exciting fighters to watch.

I remember watching PrideFC, Hero's, DEEP, Pancrase, Shooto, Bitetti Fight, Jungle Fights, IVC, KOTC, ZST, Rings etc.

I never see anyone talk about other MMA orgs anymore aside from the big dogs (UFC, Bellator, WSOF)....OneFC seems to be on the come up as well....are most of these orgs defunct???

Which ones are still active and are there any fighters from there making a buzz??? Phone Post 3.0

Alot are defunct. With the ufc expanding theyve swallowed up alot of the talent from the smaller shows. All the "name" fighters are in the big 4.

You still hear a little about other orgs like M1 just because they might have some prospect or something but thats it. Phone Post 3.0

I miss those days... Remember when HDnet covered even KOTC?

Now there are so many UFC, bellator, and WSOF events that its hard to keep up.

I miss the days of just waiting for cards that seemed like so far away. Phone Post 3.0

There are plenty of other orgs, you have Legacy, RFA, MFC on AXS, you have Invicta on Fight Pass, you have Titan FC on CBS SPorts.  You have OneFC, KSW, M1, Jungle FIghts, Deep, RUFF, RIng of Combat, CFFC, Tachi etc.

These orgs dont get talked about here cause nobody enjoys mma around here anymore, nobody is talking about anything but too many events and how UFC is dying and mma sucks.

Titan FC, RFA, Legacy FC and MFC are probably the next tier promotions in North America.

I remember when there would be 3 or 4 decent B level shows every weekend.

Not like that any more.

Every single week I post a thread highlighting non-UFC MMA, and even give links to watch it. It is ignored. The UG does not give a shit about non-UFC/Bellator MMA.

There are events running every single weekend all over the world
