The world’s largest mixed martial arts fight library is going to get a whole lot bigger in 2015.

UFC FIGHT PASS, the UFC’s digital streaming service, has obtained the rights to the fight archives of Cage Rage, Extreme Challenge MMA, the XFO, UCMMA, Hook N Shoot, TKO, King of the Cage and the Pancrase organizations.

UFC Fight Pass adds eight new libraries for 2015

The UFC FIGHT PASS library extension was announced earlier today in Las Vegas.

UFC’s Chief Content Officer Marshall Zelaznik said: “When we launched UFC FIGHT PASS one year ago, we said that it would keep getting better and better and would offer fight fans unrivaled value for money. We believe we’ve delivered on that promise yet again with this exciting announcement that these major fight libraries will be coming to FIGHT PASS.”

The new libraries will join those of the WEC, Strikeforce, WFA, PRIDE FC, EliteXC, Affliction, Invicta FC and of course UFC on UFCFIGHTPASS.com.

Zelaznik said fans will begin to see selected content from these new libraries added to the FIGHT PASS service in the spring, with content uploaded throughout 2015.

He said: “When we are finally done ingesting all these new libraries, we expect to be offering our members access to over 13,000 fights from all over the world and across and the entire history of our sport. That’s an astonishing 6,500 hours of archived fights on top of all the interviews, documentaries, original programming and live fights we have on UFC FIGHT PASS.”
