UTMA, or Unique & Talented Martial Artists, is a Lithuanian-based combat sports promotion that organizes professional kickboxing events in Lithuania.
History
UTMA was established to showcase local and regional kickboxers. It started on smaller venue shows and the promotion has expanded to larger arenas. UTMA frequently promotes events in Kaunas (including shows at Žalgirio Arena).
Events
UTMA events typically include a mix of professional kickboxing and other combat sports like Muay Thai, mixed martial arts and boxing. The events feature a main event, several co-main bouts, and an undercard showcasing rising talent.
