## Direct answer

Ultimate Fighting Bots is a remote-piloted humanoid combat property built around online control, permanent teams and creator distribution. It is not an autonomous league.

## Classification

- **Record status**: Active league
- **Entity kind**: sports-league
- **Field role**: core
- **Competition class**: Remote-piloted humanoid entertainment league
- **Control mode**: Online gamepad
- **Hardware field**: Unitree + Booster

## History

UFB launched its first season in 2025 and describes a continuing season format. Its affiliated creator roster is distribution infrastructure, not a list of official UFB social accounts.

## Format

Pilots control commercial humanoid platforms through a game interface. The official site describes four permanent teams and season competition, while a complete fight rulebook remains unpublished.

## Broadcast

UFB’s distinctive layer is creator-led distribution. Project H separates owned UFB channels from affiliated or roster accounts and does not treat creator reach as league-owned audience.

## Verification boundary

Season identity, dates, team concept and pilot-led control are official-site claims. Scoring, stoppage and appeals remain source gaps.

## Rules status

**Season format confirmed · fight rules absent.** UFB publishes season and team structure, but the public hackathon rules are not the sporting contract for robot fights.

- **Control**: Remote game interface — Human pilot in the loop
- **Structure**: Four permanent teams — Official Season 2 presentation
