The Golden Fighter Championship (GFC) is a Romanian kickboxing and Muay Thai promotion founded in 2015 and based in Timișoara, Romania, owned by Alin Fălcuşan.[1] It is the third largest kickboxing promotion in Romania, alongside fellow OSS Fighters.

It has featured fighters such as Bogdan Stoica, Andrei Stoica, Christian Baya, Amansio Paraschiv, Adrian Mitu, and Adrian Maxim, among others.

The Golden Fighter Championship and Pro TV, and its subsidiary Pro X announced a multi-year broadcast deal on 24 September 2019, effectively ending the promotion's Digi Sport partnership.[2] With the new TV deal and expansion in the country, the GFC has increased in popularity, and has achieved greater mainstream media coverage. The promotion also has a long-term contract with FightBox giving GFC a deal in other 60 countries.[3]

GFS has a partnership with Wu Lin Feng of China since 2017.[4] The GFC are also in partnership with the World Kickboxing and Karate Union (WKU).[5]
