The weight division system of KOTC is divided up in accordance with the Unified Rules of Mixed Martial Arts, but with some variations. KOTC has chosen to name its 145-pound division "Bantamweight" (instead of Featherweight), its 135-pound division "Flyweight" (instead of Bantamweight) and its 125-pound division "Light Flyweight" (instead of Flyweight). KOTC also takes advantage of the rarely used Super Heavyweight division for fighters exceeding the 265-pound weight limit of the Heavyweight division.
In addition to these variances, KOTC also employs two exclusive weight classes that are not specified within the Unified Rules of Mixed Martial Arts: a 165-pound "Light Welterweight" division and a 235-pound "Cruiserweight" division.
