Overview
Ag. Fight is a Brazilian news agency founded in 2012. It describes itself as the first agency in Brazil dedicated exclusively to MMA. It is based in São Paulo and has staff reporters in Rio de Janeiro and Las Vegas, where many UFC events take place.
As an agency, it also supplies content to other outlets, including UOL, ESPN, BOL, MSN and IG. So some of what you read on those Brazilian sites comes straight from its newsroom, even when the agency's name is not front and center.
What you'll find
The site, agfight.com, publishes daily news on MMA, the UFC and boxing: fight announcements, results, interviews, photo galleries and videos. Content is available in Portuguese, English and Spanish, so readers outside Brazil can follow it too.
The agency also covers the Brazilian scene, including promotions such as Jungle Fight and Shooto Brasil. It posts videos on its YouTube channel, runs a podcast on Spotify and shares its stories on X (@AgFight) and Instagram (@ag.fight).
Why follow
With a reporter in Las Vegas, Ag. Fight covers major UFC events on site, with a focus on Brazilian fighters. You get their reactions, pre-fight interviews and results, which the agency's partner outlets often run afterward.
Its coverage of Jungle Fight and Shooto Brasil also helps you spot Brazilian prospects before they reach the bigger promotions. And because it operates as an agency, it publishes every day, with or without a major event. Having stories in three languages also makes it a practical source for English and Spanish speakers interested in the Brazilian scene.
MMA Official's take
Ag. Fight is for fans who follow Brazilian fighters and anyone who wants a daily UFC news source. If you do not read Portuguese, start with the English or Spanish versions of its stories on the same site.
To get more out of it, follow the MMA section during UFC fight weeks, then browse the Jungle Fight coverage to find the next names coming out of the Brazilian scene. Pair it with the YouTube channel for interviews you can watch rather than read, and the Spotify podcast if you would rather listen on the go.
