Most fights are lost before the walkout — they're lost because nobody could find you. A matchmaker had a slot at 71kg, southpaw, willing to travel, ten days out. You were exactly that. They rang someone else, because someone else was in a spreadsheet and you weren't.
DFC is that spreadsheet, done properly. Your profile is free, forever.
Not a bio and a photo. A structured record a matchmaker can filter on. Every field below is a real field in the DFC fighter record — this is what a promoter's search runs against.
| Group | What you fill in | Why a promoter cares |
|---|---|---|
| Identity | Name, nickname, nationality, gender, date of birth, photo, cover, socials | Poster art and promotion. Age brackets for sanctioning. |
| Physical | Weight class, height, reach, stance (orthodox / southpaw / switch) | Reach and stance are half of a good matchup. Southpaws are always in demand. |
| Record | Wins, losses, draws, no-contests, KOs, submissions | Finish rate, not just the W–L. A 6–4 with 5 KOs sells better than an 8–2 decision merchant. |
| Camp | Current gym, current coach, previous gyms | Who vouches for you. Also stops matchmakers pairing training partners. |
| Location | City, state, country, map position, max travel distance | The single biggest filter. "Who can be in Adelaide by Friday?" |
| Availability | Available / negotiating / booked / unavailable, plus your available-from and available-until dates | A matchmaker will not ring a fighter marked booked. Keep it current and you get the calls. |
| Terms | Preferred weight classes, preferred opponent styles, willing to travel, minimum purse | Filters out the offers that waste your time — and stops lowballing before it starts. |
| Control | Blocked opponents, comments on/off, Q&A on/off | Your profile, your boundaries. You can hide your purse floor from public view. |
Someone pulls out. The card has a hole in it. Historically that's a night of phone calls and a favour owed. On DFC it's a filtered search.
Filter: weight class, available now, within X km of the venue, purse floor under the slot's budget, not blocked, not a training partner. Ranked by how recently they competed and their finish rate. Minutes, not a night.
Style-vs-style, stance clash, reach differential, records within a competitive band, and both fighters' stated preferences. It suggests the fair fight — the one that doesn't get a promoter's licence looked at.
Same filters, weighted differently: momentum, recent reach, and the story — hometown derby, rematch, unbeaten vs unbeaten, southpaw puzzle. The fight people argue about in the comments.
It works in both directions. Promoters post open bout slots on their card — weight, date, purse, venue. You see them, and you apply directly. No manager required, no gatekeeper, no "we'll let you know." Every application is timestamped and every answer is on the record.
Combat sports rankings are famously political. Ours is arithmetic, and the arithmetic is published. Three inputs, all of them things you control:
Win ratio, weighted by how you finish. Activity counts — a fighter who competes three times a year outranks a same-record fighter who competed once.
This period against your last. Rising beats plateaued. It's why a 4–3 prospect on a three-fight run can pass a stalled 9–2.
Engagement rate against your audience size, decayed by how long since you were last active. Rate, not raw follower count — so a local fighter with a loyal 2,000 isn't buried by a dormant 200,000.
Fighters are the reason anyone opens this platform. Charging you to be visible would be backwards, so we don't. The platform is paid for by the people selling to the audience you bring — never by you.
Full pricing is published when we launch. The principle behind it won't change: the fighter comes first, fans only ever pay for what they choose to watch, and the businesses reaching your audience carry the cost.
When you do earn from a fight or a sponsorship through DFC, the money moves through your own connected payout account. We never hold your purse. We can't — the platform is built so funds don't sit with us.
Name, weight class, sport, city. That alone puts you in the search.
Wins, losses, draws, KOs, subs. Honestly — it gets checked against event results.
Travel radius, purse floor, available-from date. This is what stops time-wasting offers.
The single highest-value thing you can do. Matchmakers filter it first.
Built in Australia by one person, for the fighters who never got a call because they weren't on anybody's list.
