RKENA, a newly formed mixed martial arts organization from Georgia, officially steps onto the regional sports scene with a bold vision: to elevate MMA culture across Georgia and the Caucasus and to create a true development pathway for fighters aiming for the global stage.
Founded in 2025, RKENA carries a name rooted in the Georgian language and an idea born entirely in Georgia. The organization launches with the support of Setanta Sports, the region’s largest sports media network, operating in 14 countries and delivering world-class sports coverage to millions of fans every year.
As the driving force behind RKENA, Setanta Sports strengthens the project with unmatched media reach and storytelling power, ensuring that MMA receives the visibility and platform it deserves.
Our Mission: Building the Next Generation of Fighters
RKENA’s core mission is to discover new talent and prepare them for international competition.
Despite the presence of countless passionate martial artists in the region, many lack the pathway and structured support needed to break through globally. RKENA aims to change that.
The organization will focus on:
- Developing a competitive platform for emerging fighters
- Creating a sustainable ecosystem that nurtures MMA culture
- Supporting fighters as they take their first steps toward the world’s top promotions
Through systematic, long-term development, RKENA intends not only to grow across Georgia and the region but also to guide its fighters toward international recognition.
RKENA Fight Nights – A New Stage for Regional MMA
RKENA will launch with a series of Fight Night events, initially taking place in Georgia.
The long-term goal is to expand these events beyond the country’s borders and establish a strong international footprint.
More details about the inaugural event will be announced soon — and the organization promises that the first reveal will spark significant interest among fans.
All RKENA events will be available live and exclusive on setantasports.com.
A New Vision Captured in Video
RKENA’s philosophy is powerfully expressed in the organization’s new brand video — a visual statement showcasing the rise of a new force in Georgian sport.
The video captures the identity, values, and ambition behind the project with remarkable clarity, offering a first glimpse of what RKENA represents.
