To kickstart the sport (to coin a phrase) Mixed Martial Arts India (MMAI) is screening bouts at popular eating house Busaba.

The bar is promoting a series of new drinks for the occasion, called Power Punch, Warrior, India-KO and Low Kick.

Except for its debut week, when it will be held on Thursday, the fights will be screened every Wednesday at the Lower Parel branch of the restaurant until September 21 2011.

June 16-September 21, 7 p.m.-9 p.m., Busaba, Lower Parel, + 91 (0) 22 6747 8974; Mixed Martial Arts India Facebook Group
