The story of OKTAGON

OKTAGON MMA was founded in June 2016 by Pavol Neruda and Ondřej Novotný. The first event, OKTAGON 1, was held on December 10, 2016 at Královka Arena in Prague. The promotion is based in the Czech Republic and Slovakia.

OKTAGON also runs events in Germany, the United Kingdom, Austria and Poland. Germany hosted nine of the sixteen numbered events of 2026 through OKTAGON 97. On October 12, 2024, OKTAGON 62 drew 59,148 fans to Deutsche Bank Park in Frankfurt.

In January 2026, Krzysztof Jotko won the final of the one-million-euro Tipsport Gamechanger middleweight tournament by submitting Kerim Engizek at OKTAGON 82 in Düsseldorf. He took Engizek's middleweight title in July 2026 at OKTAGON 91.

Several OKTAGON champions have joined the UFC: Martin Buday in 2021, Losene Keita in 2025 and Lucia Szabová in 2026, who left unbeaten as bantamweight and flyweight champion. Martin Buday returned to OKTAGON after leaving the UFC and lost to Will Fleury at OKTAGON 81.
