American MMA promotion LFA has found its new home.
Following the end of a multi-year agreement with UFC Fight Pass, LFA has inked a deal that will move its programming to Vice TV, as first reported by Ariel Helwani on Thursday.
The agreement will see LFA present 25 Friday-night events for the channel, with their first show airing on January 16 at 9 p.m. ET.
Over the past decade, LFA has established itself as one of the stronger developmental promotions for prospects in the U.S. Their shows have streamed exclusively on UFC Fight Pass since 2019.
LFA’s latest agreement with the platform wrapped up in late 2025 without a renewal, a somewhat shocking move considering the amount of content the promotion had been supplying UFC Fight Pass with. It left the promotion in a tough position, similar to when their deal with AXS TV had wrapped in 2019.
Many saw Vice TV as one of the few possible options for LFA following their departure from UFC Fight Pass last month. Along with its original documentary and reality programming, Vice TV has proven to have an appetite for acquiring combat sports rights as of late.
Last year, Vice TV struck deals to air events from BKB Bare Knuckle Boxing and international events from the PFL. They also maintain a presence in professional wrestling with Women of Wrestling (WOW) shows, and of course, their hit documentary series, Dark Side of the Ring.
