Titan FC inks UFC Fight Pass extension, adds combat jiu-jitsu, international expansion

Florida-based Titan FC will continue to call UFC Fight Pass its home, and the promotion is bringing a few new twists to the deal, as well.

“Five years ago when I acquired Titan FC, it was my vision that Titan would be a major global brand in MMA and one of the premiere leagues in the world,” Titan FC CEO Jeff Aronson stated. “Renewing our media rights deal with UFC Fight Pass is another step to making the vision of Titan FC being a global brand a reality.”

As further proof of the promotion’s plan to expand globally, the promotion also recently partnered with Kazakhstan’s Alem Fighters on a new deal that will see Titan FC promote live events in the Central Asian country, beginning with Titan FC 51 on Dec. 21 at Almaty Arena.

That card will also stream live on UFC Fight Pass at 9 a.m. ET.

“The growth of Titan FC is truly exciting and will continue into an exclusive partnership with Alem Fighters to develop talent and promote live events in Kazakhstan,” Titan FC COO Lex McMahon stated. “I recently spent time in Kazakhstan and was truly impressed by the warrior culture and national passion for combat sports. I’m excited to showcase Kazakhstan’s rising MMA stars to the world.”

Titan FC’s expansion plans not include moving outside U.S. borders but also outside MMA rules, as well. The organization plans to promote combat jiu-jitsu events, as well – a hybrid ruleset that focuses on grappling but allows for limited striking on the floor, as well.

“As a longtime jiu-jitsu practitioner and avid fan of all combat sports, I’ve been particularly intrigued with the growth of combat jiu-jitsu, so it’s both an exciting and logical brand extension for Titan FC,” Aronson stated.

The first combat jiu-jitsu is expected to debut in early 2019.

The lineup for Titan FC 51 includes:
