The United States-based team MegaBots is providing people an opportunity to watch a giant-robot fight. Earlier, the team was created by two individuals challenged a Japanese robot, Kuratas, for a fight. The battle of robots will be the first in the history.

To make a robot capable of fighting Suidobashi heavy Industries' Kuratas robot, the US team is revamping its MegaBots Mark II or Mk. II. According to Gui Cavalcanti and Matt Oehrlein, co-founders of MegaBots, the process of revamping will need a huge amount of money. To raise about US$500,000, they have started a Kickstarter campaign.

Brinkley Warren, one of the co-founders of MegaBots, sent a letter to Tech Times in which Warren said the company's objective is not just to defect powerful Kuratas robot, but also to be the 'Stephen Colbert of fighting robots'.

According to Warren, Megabots' long-term objective is to start the first ever live action sports league in the history of mankind. "We're blending the technology of F1 with the fights of UFC, to create a new sport with millions of fans in stadiums around the world cheering on their favorite pilots and robots in epic robot battles", Warren said.

Warren said that league by the company will provide an opportunity to teams from around the world to fight for the ultimate. According to Warren, MegaBots has taken the fight seriously and it hoped Japanese team will do the same. The fight between MegaBots and Kuratas will happen next year.
