Customer Rating: Summary: The best of the early UFC gems... Comment: Remember these names... Fred Ettish and Scott Morris...
Some of the most severe beatings in MMA/NHB history occured at this second event of the Ultimate Fighting Championship, the organization that rocked the martial arts world... It was a 16 man tournament, and it is probably the best. This is the best of the early UFC events, and the one that initiated me into the world of mixed martial arts when it debuted. Style vs. Style at its best, before the dogma of style was destroyed forever...
As much as I enjoyed the show, I was disappointed that this update version did not include the first eight preliminary bouts. I was really wanting to see the Hammaker (Sambo) vs. (Pencat Silat) bout... no dice...
That's the only reason it gets a 4... It is still an absolute must for any martial arts fan. Customer Rating: Summary: Not for the squeamish Comment: UFC 2. An event like no other. The only 16-man tournament in the history of the event, and the most brutal, vicious sporting event I've seen in my life.
A hapless 18-year-old gets a harsh education on what "showing up" means. Robert Lucarelli takes a beatdown, doesn't tap out properly, and suffers a second beatdown. Minoki Ichihara sees his entire fighting style rendered useless by Royce Gracie. Then Patrick Smith gets a piece of Scott Morris, and it's not pretty. And of course, Remco Pardoel vs. Orlando "The Gladiator" Weit, which produced the first truly frightening moment of this young event.
Faces get smashed in, arms get wrenched, and blood flows freely. In the end, however, it comes down not to violence, but skill. That's the beauty of it.
Note: The DVD has three first round matches other than what was shown on the PPV, which had to be shortened due to time constraints. Customer Rating: Summary: Great DVD. video quality. Comment: I had these on video and the dvd's are the same quality with some interviews added. Just to clarify UFC classics 2 does contain the very last match of the first round. This is all that has ever been available as far as I know, including the video. Customer Rating: Summary: Not what I thought it would be Comment: I was very excited to see the original UFC's on DVD! I was disappointed with this one though, because the first round of fights are left off! The DVD starts off with the second round of fights. This is disappointing since this is the only UFC that had four rounds of fights!
