Summary: Interesting matches, a bit expensive.
Comment: I bought this for the Royler vs. Joao Roque match and, to that extent, I was not disappointed. Everything else left me feeling a bit cheated; specifically, as was previously mentioned, the quality of the production.

Summary: Disappointing
Comment: I was surprised at how boring much of the dvd turned out to be. Also, the behind the scenes material was amateurish.

Jean Jac Machado looked great. That's one thing I can say for the dvd. I am a big fan of Renzo Gracie but I didn't see much here. I really can't recommend this dvd.

Summary: Not the best of the Best of ADCCs
Comment: This first side of this DVD contains several fights from the earlier Abu Dhabi events. Royler vs. Joao Roque is an excellent match. Jean Jaques Machado vs. Caol Uno is also really fun to watch. Ricardo Arona vs. Kareem Barkaleev is crazy. Other matches aren't quite as interesting, but still pretty good.

The other side of the DVD contains about 40 minutes of 'behind the scenes' footage from the 2003 Abu Dhabi event (in Brazil). It's kind of cool to watch, but could be edited and presented much better.

If you have the other two Best of ADCC DVDs, you'll know what to expect from this one. If not, get the other two first ...
