Lion Fight

Lion Fight, also known as Lion Fight Promotions, is an American professional Muay Thai promotion organization headquartered in Las Vegas, Nevada. The company was established in 2010 by Scott Kent, a former casino executive who became its owner and chief executive. Its business centers on promoting, producing, and distributing professional Muay Thai events, with fighters competing under the Lion Fight banner in the United States and abroad. The promotion developed as a dedicated platform for Muay Thai, a striking combat sport originating in Thailand and known for the use of punches, kicks, elbows, and knees. Rather than operating primarily as a gym, equipment company, or governing body, Lion Fight functions as an event promoter: it assembles fight cards, contracts athletes, stages live competitions, and works with media and distribution partners to reach audiences. Its events have included bouts involving internationally recognized Muay Thai competitors and have helped present the sport to viewers outside Thailand. Lion Fight's event footprint has extended beyond its Las Vegas base. Reference material describes events in seven countries, including the United States, Italy, Ireland, and Argentina, as well as appearances at a range of American venues. These have included casino properties such as the Hard Rock Casino and large public venues including the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. This combination of casino, arena, and international venues reflects the promotion's attempt to position Muay Thai as a professionally packaged live-sports product. The organization has used several broadcast and digital distribution arrangements over time. It was previously associated with AXS TV and CBS Sports Network, while current reference material identifies FITE as a platform on which Lion Fight is available. These relationships have provided routes for event programming beyond the in-venue audience and have supported the brand's visibility in the combat-sports media market. Lion Fight's positioning is that of a specialist, international Muay Thai event brand. Its identity is tied to the presentation of sanctioned professional fights, athlete matchups, championship-level competition, and televised or streamed fight cards. Public reference material does not provide a detailed account of its corporate ownership structure, financial performance, employee base, or current executive team beyond Scott Kent's association as owner and CEO. The organization is described as active, but the available material does not establish a complete current event schedule or a comprehensive list of all operating markets.

Lion Fight was established in 2010 in Las Vegas, Nevada, by Scott Kent, a former casino executive. From its beginning, the organization was structured as a professional Muay Thai promotion rather than as a general combat-sports company. Its core activity has been the organization of competitive Muay Thai events, including the recruitment and presentation of fighters, the staging of live cards, and the development of media distribution for those events. The promotion's Las Vegas base connected it with a market that has substantial experience in casino entertainment and televised combat sports. Its events have been held at venues in the United States ranging from casino properties, including the Hard Rock Casino, to major public venues such as the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. These venue choices have allowed the brand to present Muay Thai in both established entertainment settings and larger arena-style environments. Over time, Lion Fight expanded its reach outside the United States. Available reference material states that the promotion has hosted events across seven countries, specifically identifying Italy, Ireland, and Argentina among its international markets. This expansion gave the organization a role in connecting North American Muay Thai promotion with fighters and audiences in other regions, although the available sources do not provide a complete chronology of each overseas event or a full country-by-country schedule. Media distribution has been an important part of Lion Fight's development. The organization was previously partnered with AXS TV and CBS Sports Network, giving its events exposure through established American sports and entertainment television outlets. More recent reference material identifies FITE as a current availability platform. The change in distribution relationships illustrates the promotion's use of both traditional television and digital combat-sports distribution to reach viewers. Lion Fight remains associated with professional Muay Thai event promotion and is described in the available reference material as active. Publicly available information used for this dossier is limited regarding later corporate changes, detailed financial results, ownership arrangements beyond Scott Kent, and the promotion's complete recent event calendar. Consequently, its documented history is best understood through its founding, international event activity, venue strategy, and broadcast relationships rather than through a fully reported corporate chronology.
