Prospect Fighting Championships or PFC is a Canadian combat sports promotion based in London, Ontario, Canada. [1] Established in 2013, it is the oldest active promotion in the province. It was formerly known as the Provincial Fighting Championship (Provincial FC) before rebranding in 2015. The PFC is one of the largest MMA promotions in Canada, thus it provides talent to the UFC as a feeder organization. [2] In 2023, the promotion signed a deal with Fite TV to stream events on their broadcast service. [3]

History

Founded in 2013, by Jamie Champion, the Provincial Fighting Championship held three events in the province of Ontario, before rebranding to Prospect Fighting Championships (PFC) in 2015. It started off by running amateur (PAFC) events in Ontario's blossoming MMA scene, as Mixed Martial Arts were considered illegal until 2010. [4] With the only mixed martial arts events occurring in the province before 2010, being hosted on native reservations. These communities possess their own athletic commission, so they were able to bypass provincial law. [5] The Prospect Fighting Championships uses a Hexagon as their cage and adheres to the Unified Rules of Mixed Martial Arts. The promotion offers a wide variety of weight classes to its athletes ranging from Atomweight to Super Heavyweight, this grants fighters of all weights the chance to compete and improve their skills.

The commentary team for the PFC is led by John Ramdeen, a veteran broadcaster in Canada's mixed martial arts community. He is joined by former mixed martial arts fighter, Robin Black, who acts as the promotions lead analyst and Reed Duthie, the PFC's play-by-play analyst. Following PFC 13, the ring announcer for the Prospect Fighting Championships was announced to be veteran voice, Keith Crawford. Pete "Mr. Throwdown" Treviño has formerly acted as the announcer for the promotion prior to 2022. The organization has also hosted three WAKO sanctioned kickboxing events and one MTO santioned muay thai event. Over the last decade the PFC has established itself as the premiere organization in Ontario, and has grown into one of the largest promotions in Canada. [6] Since its inception, the promotion has held 21 events, involving over 155 matches and 40 kickboxing or muay thai bouts. [7]

Provincial Fighting Championship

On Saturday, October 26, 2013. Provincial Fighting Championship held their inaugural event in London, Ontario, Canada. The promotion ran four events under the Provincial FC banner, before rebranding to Prospect Fighting Championships in 2015. [8]

Prospect Fighting Championships

On Saturday, August 29, 2015. Prospect Fighting Championships held its first event in London, Ontario, Canada. Since then the organization has hosted six AMMA events and three WAKO sanctioned kickboxing events before switching back to the professional MMA circuit. [10] Since the rebrand, it has held 16 events, all in Ontario. The promotion continues the use of a Hexagonal cage and operates under the Unified Rules of Mixed Martial Arts. The commentary team for the PFC is hosted by John Ramdeen, former mixed martial arts fighter, Robin Black and Reed Duthie. Keith Crawford acts as the official announcer for the Prospect Fighting Championships.

The company holds annual events in conjunction with London-based fundraiser, Showdown in the Downtown, to support fundraising to "fight" kidney disease. [11] In 2020, the promotion signed a deal with Fight Network streaming services. [12] With the COVID-19 lockdown in Ontario preventing live shows in late 2020–2021, the promotion hosted a virtual talk show on September 25, 2021. It featured former UFC fighter Brendan Schaub, the event resulted in over $300,000 being raised for local charities. In total the events have raised an accumulative 3 million dollars for charity.
