MFC’s former home was the ''River Cree Resort and Casino'' in Enoch, Alberta, Canada located just outside of Edmonton, Alberta. Their new home is the ''Mayfield Inn Trade and Conference Centre'' Edmonton, Alberta. In July 2011, MFC signed a five-year live TV deal with HDnet (now AXS TV) and in October 2011, MFC signed with TSN2. MFC hosts heavyweight fights but doesn't have a heavyweight championship due to the lack of heavyweights outside of the top promotions. MFC employs the Unified Rules of Mixed Martial Arts. All MFC bouts take place in a ring, with the exception of MFC 29 which, in accordance with the regulations utilized in Ontario which requires all mixed martial arts fights to be held in a cage structure, took place in a circular cage named "''The Ring''" by the winner of a "''Name the Cage''" fan contest.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=MFC stays in THE RING )〕 In 2012, MFC announced the re-launched its heavyweight division and the upcoming debut of a featherweight division.
