Crypto Fight Night (CFN), the global crossover boxing tournament endorsed by the prestigious World Boxing Council, is making its Asia-Pacific debut at Singapore’s Marina Bay Sands on September 19th. Taking place alongside the world’s biggest crypto gathering, Token2049, this event marks CFN’s 6th tournament globally and its first in the APAC region.



The Singapore edition, known as CFN Off-Chain Singapore, promises to be one of the most electrifying nights in the world of crypto sports, with a roster of semi-pro boxers, MMA fighters, and celebrity challengers from the crypto world. Among the most anticipated matchups is the battle between popular Web3 influencer HedgedHog and an unannounced challenger.
In addition, MMA fighter Keith Berry, also known as NFT Kid, will be squaring off against Chento, adding to the adrenaline-filled night.
The event is backed by key sponsors including Ghaf Capital, Bonk, ApeX Protocol, and Trojan Trading. Carrying on its legacy of uniting the crypto and boxing worlds, CFN Off-Chain Singapore will host 12 matchups featuring 16 fighters, with a mix of both crypto personalities and local professional boxing talents.

Rahul Suri, co-founder & CEO of Crypto Fight Night, said:
“Crypto Fight Night has emerged as a celebration of the global crypto community, and we are proud to be expanding it to new arenas such as Singapore which boasts of a thriving crypto ecosystem. While we enable prominent contributors in the space to connect under one roof, we also want to make CFN accessible to the entire community, which is why we're broadcasting the proceedings for free through our streaming partners, ensuring that everyone can join in and be a part of something truly special.”

CFN's Global Expansion Reaches New Heights

CFN’s rise to prominence has been fueled by its pursuit of legitimacy in the boxing world. Endorsed by the World Boxing Council, CFN has set a new standard for crossover boxing events, blending the excitement of professional boxing with the vibrant, fast-paced world of cryptocurrency. The CFN Crypto Belt, one of the most coveted prizes in crossover boxing, will be on the line, making the competition even more intense.

The event will also serve as a curtain-raiser for CFN’s upcoming tournaments in the UAE, Hong Kong, and the U.S., as part of the brand’s ambitious plan to evolve into a year-round league format.

With over 2,000 guests expected in person and a projected 1.5 million viewers tuning in online, CFN Off-Chain Singapore is set to surpass the popularity of previous editions in London and Dubai.
