President & Founder of the World X-impact Federation (WXF)
Welcome to WXF ! [New Born Global MMA in WXF]
Hello to all MMA fans around the world who love martial arts. This is Lee Gak Soo, the Founder and Honorary President of the World X-impact Federation (WXF).
It is a great honor to introduce the new vision and bold initiatives of WXF to our global community today.
Martial arts, which have evolved alongside human civilization, are far more than mere physical activities—they are profound cultural legacies that embody the spirit, traditions, and historical identity of each nation. From the East’s Taekwondo, Judo, and Kung Fu, to the West’s Boxing, Wrestling, and Sambo, and even to the indigenous fighting arts of Latin America and Africa—martial arts across the world are timeless expressions of the human spirit.
Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) is the most innovative evolution of combat sports, blending the strengths of diverse martial traditions into one unified, modern discipline. Far beyond simple rule integration, MMA demands patience, discipline, courage, and self-mastery. Today, it has grown into a global mega-sport with over 700 million fans worldwide.
At WXF, we uphold the essence of MMA while striving to inherit and elevate the values of martial arts in accordance with the spirit of the new era. Our federation is committed to discovering promising athletes from around the world, building a structured development system, and establishing a global platform where national champions and Olympic or international medalists can demonstrate their skills with pride and dignity in the MMA arena.
WXF is not merely a sports organization.
We aim to become a central platform for sports diplomacy, fostering harmony and peace through athletic exchange among nations. Furthermore, we are charting a strategic roadmap to make MMA an official Olympic sport, transforming it into a true global stage that realizes the dreams of martial artists everywhere.
