Always enjoyed Boxing, Martial Arts and UFC etc. but only just recently started collecting the DVDs. If you've got a minute to recommend to me your
favorite UFC DVD ie number I'd be hella interested. There's just so many and I want to start a solid base for the collection before I just start going
through the numbers from the beginning.
So far I've only got UFC 140 (Jones vs Machida) and UFC 84 (Penn vs Sherk & Ortiz vs Machida)
Loved the Frank Mir vs Minotauro Nogueira on 140 , some real high level BJJ shit there.
Enjoy good striking but really enjoy the technical grapplers. Hit me up with your favorite UFC # if you can be fucked.

I don't have suggestions for best events, and I know this isn't what you're asking for, but I strongly recommend watching them from the start in
chronological order, including all Pride events and the RINGS 1999 & 2000 tournaments if possible.
watching the UFC by itself won't give you a accurate idea of who was at the top pre-2007. it's kind of cool to watch go from org to org and watch
them all in order - there's a real continuity about it.

Cheers lads, thanks for steering me in the right direction.
Isn't there a lot of talk about set ups and fuckery in Pride and other earlier formats? I kind of started with UFC because I assumed it was the most
trust worthy.

there was at least one fixed fight in Pride, which was Coleman vs Tanaka. that was niether here no there though because it had no title implications
and was purely for the Japanese pro-wrestling fan boys. it's not like they fixed a title fight.

I've seen a couple of weak matches that border on sketchy in Pride on youtube. But like you say it was probably the minority, and probably not major
matches. Will be checking some of the older stuff out.

The Nogueira vs Bob Sapp fight from Pride.
Oh and WEC 48 for a start too. I came up on the WEC events more than PRIDE. Those feels when Torres came out to Los Mandados, Faber coming out to
California Love, Mike Brown coming out to Free Bird etc.

i thought sonnen/jones should have been let go a little longer
not that it would have likely changed much but he seemed to be defending himself
but then i guess the toe factor would have come into play - did they ever show when exactly it happened?
bunch of bad endings really
big country is just a machine tho
So: Gary, the Mona Lisa. This is trash.
TRASH. How many tigers or skulls are in this painting?
THE ANSWER IS ZERO, WHICH IS THE garyEST NUMBER OF SKULLS OR TIGERS YOU CAN HAVE IN A PAINTING.

Yeah Sonnen stoppage was retarded, Jones is lucky though with his gnarly toe he wouldnt have made it into second round and Sonnen would have been new
champ.
those two eye poke endings aswell ;/

Vitor looks so fucking good right now,. WOW
I could watch a silverback gorilla snatch a great white shark out of the water and throw it like a spear through the side of a rampaging bull elephant
and I'd still think, Well, that was manly, but it wasn't Predator manly.
