The Golden Fighter Championship (GFC) is a Romanian kickboxing, Muay Thai and mixed martial arts (MMA) promotion founded in 2015 and based in Timișoara, Romania, owned by Alin Fălcuşan.[1] It is the third largest kickboxing promotion in Romania, alongside fellow OSS Fighters.
The Golden Fighter Championship and Pro TV, and its subsidiary Pro X announced a multi-year broadcast deal on 24 September 2019, effectively ending the promotion's Digi Sport partnership.[2] With the new TV deal and expansion in the country, the GFC has increased in popularity, and has achieved greater mainstream media coverage. The promotion also has a long-term contract with FightBox giving GFC a deal in other 60 countries.[3]
GFS has a partnership with Wu Lin Feng of China since 2017.[4] The GFC are also in partnership with the World Kickboxing and Karate Union (WKU). In April 2024, GFC entered into an official partnership with K-1.[5] [6]
Each GFC event contains several fights. Traditionally, every event starts off with an opening fight followed by other fights, with the last fight being known as the main event.
