Since its inception in 2019, Matrix Fight Night (MFN) has become the largest Mixed-Martial Arts promotion in India. The promotion has organized 11 editions across India and UAE and hosted some of the top MMA stars from across the world. In the first two episodes of MFN Podcast, co-founders Krishna Shroff and Ayesha Shroff, a mother-daughter team, talked about the journey of conceptualizing the promotion and the challenges faced during their journey. The Shroff family’s decision to venture into MMA was a difficult one, given that cricket, football, and kabaddi are more popular among sports fans in the country. But their passion for the sport and the belief in promoting Indian fighters on a global platform kept them going. Despite the hurdles, Matrix Fight Night has established itself as the synonym for MMA in India.
