 Since its debut event on January 18th, Royal MMA has exploded into one of the most dynamic and fast-growing fight organizations in the MMA world. Last weekend’s event officially marked a huge milestone, over 1,000 fights have now taken place inside the Royal cage.
The numbers speak for themselves:
That means nearly two-thirds of all Royal MMA fights finish inside the distance, a testament to the league’s strike-heavy, fan-friendly style. The organization also passed another landmark, having awarded a staggering $900,000 in performance bonuses across its events to date.
From Local Start-Up to Global Powerhouse
In less than a year, Royal MMA has hosted four major Pay-Per-View events, launched the acclaimed Super Heavy Series, and is currently midway through its first global “Commonwealth Clash 2025” tournament, featuring 20 elite fighters from across the world.
Each of these milestones has helped shape Royal MMA’s identity, a blend of spectacle, sportsmanship, and international flair. The promotion’s global partnerships, including Banzai Clothing as its official fight wear sponsor, have given it a signature look and feel that separates it from the pack.
The Faces of Royal MMA
No fighter embodies the promotion’s rise quite like Cam Aspinall, the undefeated heavyweight champion who has become the poster boy for Royal MMA. With 13 consecutive victories, all by KO or TKO, Aspinall not only holds the most wins in company history but also the record for most knockouts. His dominance has drawn comparisons to the early eras of modern heavyweight greats.
Meanwhile, Tyler Tea continues to redefine work ethic, having already fought 14 times this year, he’s quickly become one of the most active and beloved fighters on the roster.
Submission specialists have also made their mark, with Kratos DaGod leading the way for wins via tapout, proving that the art of grappling still thrives in a promotion often defined by heavy hands. And in contrast, gritty veteran Rickety Cricket has built his reputation as the division’s ironman, securing five wins by decision, often dragging opponents into deep waters few can survive.
The Spectacle of the Super Heavy Series
Royal MMA’s biggest night so far came during the Super Heavy Series Final, where an astonishing 16,524 fans packed the arena, setting a record for attendance and atmosphere. That event crowned King Kooljak as the undisputed titan of the Super Heavyweights, a fighter whose performances have since become must-watch affairs.
But if Royal’s management has its way, that attendance record won’t stand for long. Plans are already confirmed for a massive end-of-year event at Wombley Arena, with up to 93,607 tickets expected to go on sale, potentially shattering every previous attendance record in Royal history.
Legends and Legacy
Among the most respected names to ever grace the Royal cage is the now-retired Rory Curtis, a true pioneer of the organization. Curtis not only served as a cornerstone of the early divisions but also headlined the highest-rated event in Royal MMA history, which achieved an event rating of 395.62, a full 44 points higher than any other card.
That unforgettable night also marked a turning point in the company’s lore, as Curtis suffered the first loss of his career against Tout Petite Gigante, the current 145lb champion, who has since carved out her own championship legacy.
The Road Ahead
With more fighters joining the roster weekly, the Commonwealth Clash heating up, and the end-of-year Wombley super event already generating buzz, Royal MMA is showing no signs of slowing down.
What began as a small, ambitious project back in January has evolved into a global combat sports spectacle, drawing fighters from every continent and fans from every corner of the virtual world.
As Royal MMA pushes past its first thousand fights, the message is clear, this is only the beginning.
