This reel of highlights from Ultimate Fighting Championships, tournaments in which men enter an octagonal ring and do battle by punching, wrestling, and kicking, begins by showing rotund Tank Abbot, who has since moved on to comparatively benign environs of World Championship Wrestling, being kicked to defeat by a much smaller opponent. Those sorts of surprises abound in Ultimate Fighting. The outcome is impossible to predict in a bout that may end, as one does on this video, with a flurry of punches followed by a knee delivered to a defensive opponent's lowered face, culminating by a final kick to the side of the head of the suddenly wobbly fighter. This sort of action will no doubt horrify boxing purists, and some of it will be too brutal for the tastes of those who prefer the cartoonish violence of professional wrestling. And while most of these matches feature fights between opponents who, rather than brawling mindlessly, cagily circle each other and choose their opportunity to strike, when the action does happen, it's vicious. Many of the matches draw blood, and it's not unusual for a man to suddenly pound his opponent unconscious. If you're a fan of the novel sport of Ultimate Fighting, you'll love this, but prepared to be shocked if you're not. --Robert J. McNamara

Summary: Some shortened fights but overall a good DVD
Comment: Now here are the fights in order on the disc. It starts with like 5 shortened(edited) fights and then shows you whole matches half way through.
HUGO DUORTE VS TANK ABBOT-great short fight, certainly one of the more memorabe endings.
MARK COLEMEN VS PETE WILLIAMS-they only show the overtime but I am glad I saw at least that portion.
VITOR BELFORT VS VANERLEI SILVA-quick match, you can guess why most likely.
JERRY BOHLANDER VS. TITO ORTIZ-they pick the fight up about 10 minutes into the round and pick show the rest of the fight into the overtime. Kinf of a borign match but you can see that Tito found the ground game early on in his career and stayed there. Also look for Ken Shamrock coaching Bohlander.
BAS RUTTEN VS. TSUYOSHI KOSAKA-they pick this one up about 9 minutes and 40 seconds into it. This is a real dissapointment as it would have been nice to see the entire fight.
TITO ORTIZ VS GUY MEZGER-big John Mcarthy, you gonna call this one or are you gonna let this guy die? Again Ken Shamrock was coaching Tito's opponent.
TRE TELLIGMAN VS PERDO RIZZO-part 1. This is where the DVD starts showing the fights in their entirety. This is a great short match.
FRANK SHAMROCK VS TITO ORTIZ-great match, if you haven't seen it I won't spoil it. I know that I was very pleased with the ending.
ROYCE ALGER VS EUGENE JACKSON-oh man what a great(fun) fight!
BRAD KOHLER VS STEVE JUDSON-you have got to see this just to see Kohler's arms. They are seriously the biggest pipes in the UFC.
YAMAMIYA VS EUGEN JACKSON-not a great fight but a good boxing match and a good ending.
PEDRO RIZZO VS TSUYOSHI KOSAKA-slow match but some viscious kicks from Rizzo.
So some of the fights are short, some are edited, all are worth watching.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Quite Horrible
Comment: Just terrible and not worth the money. The fights are horrible and the fighters have very little skill. Puchase PRIDE instead where the best fighters in the WORLD come to fight.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Steve Judson and Mark Coleman probably don't own this DVD
Comment: These are some great fights from the mid-stages of the UFC. The DVD takes you from UFC 17 through UFC 23, selecting some of the best fights to be revisited in this volume. Although the bulk of the footage is just from really good fights, there are a few legendary knockouts here.
We get to see Tito at the beginning stages of his rise. We see him here in UFC 18 & 19 - and we also get to see him getting his first taste of talent at the level of Frank Shamrock early in his career.
Pedro Rizzo makes a few appearances on this collection. His strikes are always blazing and precise. Eugene Jackson also has a few good fights included.
This is a good collection. There are certainly boring moments, but the action always picks up quickly. The knockouts of Mark Coleman and Steve Judson alone are worth the price of the DVD. These fights were previously only available on VHS - so they make a fine addition to your UFC and mixed martial arts collection.
