Broadcast coverage
JACK MMA is broadcast on Chinese television for free.

JCK MMA is available via streaming on UFC Fight Pass.

Events are held weekly on every Saturday night at 7 pm (7 am in US ET).

Format
The promotion's format is similar to that of the Professional Fighters League in that it has a seasonal, tournament-style format. There are 32 fighters per weight class. Each fighter is guaranteed to have five fights per season to determine the rankings. For each division, the top ranked fighters will compete against each other in a playoff finale. The winner will be awarded a cash prize of ¥1 million RMB (US$150,000).

Starting from the 2022 season, former winners and veterans of JCK MMA get a shorted route to the finals where they take part in the JCK Super Round. Six fighters in each division will face each other three times to obtain a ranking and the bottom two are eliminated.

Currently there are divisions from flyweight to welterweight for men. Additional divisions from middleweight to heavyweight as well as female divisions are also being added.

Rules
JCK MMA uses the Unified Rules of Mixed Martial Arts.
