The North American Fighting Championship (NAFC) was an influential boxing and mixed martial arts (MMA) promotion company, established in 2010 by Duke Roufus and his business partner Scott Joffe.[1]
Based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and working in conjunction with the Roufusport system, NAFC served as a successful fighter pipeline to major promotions like the UFC, PFL, and Bellator. Notable NAFC competitors include Sergio Pettis, Ricky Glenn, Chico Camus, and Sam Alvey.[2]
Following Roufus' sudden passing in October, 2025, it was announced that NAFC would be ending all operations, its final event taking place a month prior on September 6, 2025.[3][4]
