Summary: Great Fights except.....
Comment: I just reciently purchased this video it is for most of the part a great video. One of my favorite fights was the Burnett fight he is a great fighter. There are alot of great fights except the pat miletich fights i really for the most part hate his fights but reciently his has been alright. The suprising main event was great even though it was very short. This video is well wourth the money.

Summary: Good fights!
Comment: From the previous reviews I thought this tape would blow me away. I end up expecting too much. Horn fight is good and furious while the fight between TK and William is ok, since both men (I heard it was an agreement between the 2 fighters) did not strike on the ground, it is mainly a ground grappling match, which is ok for me.
What I don't like is the fight between Miletich and Burnett. It is a extremely defensive fight by Miletich and it bore me to death, he spent 15 mins holding on to Mikey shorts or pulling him to the guard. I have no doubt he is a very good fighter judging from his defensive play in the guard, I just don't think a champ should win that way.
Pedro Rizzo fight is good but I was never impressed with Tank technique anyway, his asset is his agressiveness and heavy punch but he is too one dimensional for the Rock.
Frank Shamrock fights is ok but I don't think it was his best performance.
I will give it a 4 stars but I don't think it is as good as some recent Pride show, e.g. Pride 10

Summary: Great Card, Great Fights!
Comment: From it's beginning, the UFC has ushered in great fighters from Brazil. From Royce Gracie to Vitor Belfort, Brazil has provided the MMA scene with skilled individuals who changed the fighting world. This particular UFC would take place in Brazil, and would prove to be one of the most exciting cards to date.

The card was different from the get go. No tournaments meant no injuries, and subs. Individual fights just like a regular fight card would go. The truth is that todays fighters are far more skilled than ones of 5+ years ago, and we see more effort used in the opening rounds of tournaments thus more injuries occur. The first fight was between local product Ebeneezer Braga and Jeremy Horn. The fight would wind up being fast and exciting, with an incredible choke. Fight 2 would see Tsyoshi Kosaka battle Pete Williams,in a pancrase style of fight. Neither fighter wanted to hit each other while on the ground, but a few exchanges were made on their feet. The third fight would determine the UFC's first lightweight champion as Pat Miletich would battle Mikey Burnett. The fight would go the distance with a close decision. Really any fighter could have won this fight.

The last 3 fights would be the best fights and alone worth the tape itself. First Vitor Belfort would fight against fellow country-man Vanderlai Silva. Belfort had not been the same since his early fights, this was to be his time to show the world he was back. Vanderlai Silva was new to the UFC, but not to the MMA scene. He earned the fight after beating Mike Van Arsdale in a Brazilian event. This fight will blow you away! The following fight would pit "Tank" Abbott against Pedro Rizzo. Abbott was back to fight another Brazilian fighter and hopefully beat another one again. This time he went up against a smarter, tougher, and better fighter in Pedro Rizzo. This would mark the last we see of ol' Tank as he left MMA to join the WCW(PRO Wrestling). Finally he went were he truly belonged: The Circus. The main event would pit Middleweight Champion Frank Shamrock against the only person ever to beat him in a MMA fight. John Lober, a journeyman fighter actually beat Shamrock in his first MMA fight. While Shamrock was the favorite, this was a great way to finally put his only blemish away for good. Shamrock would display kicks, punches, and superior conditioning in this exciting fight.

The Brazilian crowd was rowdy, but not rude. They respect the fighters and the fight itself.

Summary: I wish every UFC was this good
Comment: Ultimate Brazil has only one fight that isn't that good. The rest are all very exciting. I liked watching Frank Shamrock fight. Pedro Rizzo and Vitor Belfort are also very impressive. If you like watching fights with intense grappling, you will like Ultimate Brazil. If you prefer more of a kickboxing type fight, you will like Ultimate Brazil. This would be a great event to get people to like UFC.
