“Following the successful Battle at Bragg event last year, we knew we wanted to feature more collegiate wrestling on UFC FIGHT PASS,” said Crowley Sullivan, Vice President and General Manager of UFC FIGHT PASS. “Some of the most notable UFC athletes have backgrounds in collegiate wrestling. We’re thrilled to expand our partnership with CFFC and shine a spotlight on these incredible athletes.”

"History has proven that wrestling is an incredible base for prospective mixed martial artists, and as a former college wrestler myself, as well as a wrestling coach for more than a decade, wrestling is also a lifelong passion of mine," said Rob Haydak, Chief Executive Officer, CFFC. "Before now, there's never been a direct connection between the wrestling world and the most powerful name in mixed martial arts, UFC, but that changes with this historic partnership. I'm incredibly excited to be a part of elevating the sport of wrestling to a much-deserved level by featuring these events on UFC FIGHT PASS with the top-quality production that CFFC is known for in the MMA industry."

Additional dates for the 2023-24 season will see the CFFC Match Day crew visit unique locations across the country, including soon-to-be-announced venues in the states of Iowa, Missouri, Nevada, New Jersey, North Carolina, Ohio, and Wyoming.
