URKL Shanghai event set for September 19 at Baoshangymnasium
URKL brings its humanoid robot fighting tour to Shanghai on September 19, featuring T800 robots competing in a five-round scoring format.
URKL, the Ultimate Robot Knock-out Legend, announced a Shanghai stop in its city tour series for September 19 at the Baoshangymnasium basketball hall. The venue will host two sessions—afternoon and evening—each accommodating 3,000 to 5,000 spectators. This marks URKL's first public event after its Shenzhen debut, where the league reported reaching 2 billion impressions across platforms.
The Shanghai card features T800 full-size humanoid robots fighting in an octagon. The robots perform punching, kicking, dodging, and rising from knockdowns autonomously. Matches use a five-round scoring system, with each round lasting five minutes and judged by professional referees.
The event pairs the robot fights with Shanghai-specific entertainment. Featured bouts include matchups billed as the "White Eagle," a robot known for flying kicks and taunting dances from a previous event, and a new opponent called "Golden Flash." Organizers will air promotional footage of robots at Shanghai landmarks, stage a human-robot opening dance, and hold what they describe as the first human-AI DJ interaction on stage together.
The Shanghai event serves as the first stop in URKL's planned national city tour following the Shenzhen launch.
