IAceI Posted February 11, 2007 Report Share Posted February 11, 2007 Just to change the topic ever so slightly but I can't be bothered starting a new thread for something. I like UFC, I enjoy it, it's fun to watch but people say that UFC isn't as good as it was, and that PRIDE and K-1 are much better, however I'm looking to purchase some good UFC DVD's over the coming months so can someone give me a good idea on what to get? Just some things, I don't want to go back too long ago, so try to keep them relatively modern. I'm not interested in listening to Japanese commentators particularly, so no K-1 or PRIDE etc. I love Matt Hughes Any recommendations my fellow EWBers?

ACCBiggz Posted February 11, 2007 Report Share Posted February 11, 2007 K-1, I'm not a fan personally. As for UFC DVD's, I've been finding that their DVD's are not that great... so I'd suggest just getting the PPV's and watching live, although if you like Hughes, anything pre-66 should be good for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ACCBiggz Posted February 11, 2007 Report Share Posted February 11, 2007 (edited) You can buy older DVD's, but they take forever to release (I think UFC60, Hughes vs. Gracie was the latest release) and they end up cutting entrances and some other things from it, except for the Main Event, sometimes. I'd just say watch the PPV's live, but like I said, if you want more Hughes anything pre-66 should be pretty good. Or, you could pay a monthly subscription to UFC On Demand, and download some of the matches they have there. I think you can also buy individual fights, but I can't remember.

Thrilla Posted February 11, 2007 Report Share Posted February 11, 2007 If you want to get some UFC DVDs I'd suggest going for shows with some of the big main events like Ortiz/Liddell, Couture/Ortiz, Couture/Liddell as that way you'll get recognisible names in good fights in the main event and the undercard become more familiar to you, which will help you when buying future DVDs. Plus, if you really want you can start collecting the UFC DVDs from the very beginning as Silvervision are in the process of releasing every UFC event ever held. Be warned though the action isn't as fluid in those shows as it is these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IAceI Posted February 11, 2007 Report Share Posted February 11, 2007 For a Leafs fan, you really are quite the guy. Thanks for that, was way passed what I expected to be honest, I was looking in my MHV the other day and I think I saw 61 or 62 in there and most of them were down for around £12-15 mark I think, so it's not going to cost too much if I get one every month or so, and I think it's quite up to date for us being English at least. I'll look into what they have and then see if I can pick up your recommendations. Obviously just because I like Matt Hughes, doesn't mean I need to see him constantly, I want to appreciate them all. I also look to pick up the latest one when it's released because Cro Cop and Rampage seem scarily good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troy Maskell Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 Ugh, BitchCop in the UFC. words can not adaquetly express my disgust. Why can't he go back to Pride and take Ortiz with him? Nice to see the UFC's version of Barry Horowitz is up for another beatdown as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toe Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 That Cro Crop fight was pretty awesome too. He just seemed to be stalking his opponent, following him around the ring. Too bad there was no head kick for the highlight reel, but the fight sure was impressive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enter Blue Guy Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 (edited) I'm guessing Horowitz is Sinosic. As I said before, he's the UFC premier jobber. As for the Cro Cop hate, the only thing that has ever bothered me about the guy is when he gets late into a fight and his opponent seems to be winning... He tends to not want to engage, even resorting to running away. Actually, it's only happened twice, against Mark Hunt and Fedor, but his unwillingness to be aggressive and failure to engage was ridiculous. He literally turned around and ran away from Fedor. Firmly settling the question of who is the undisputed most feared man in MMA. Edited February 12, 2007 by Enter Blue Guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enter Blue Guy Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 (edited) So it's Cro Cop vs. Gabriel Gonzaga at UFC 70. With Arlovski and Kongo still rumored for the show, it's a strong possibility they'll go at it as well. Updated speculated card for UFN in April. UFC FIGHT NIGHT 9: APRIL 5, 2007 ON SPIKE TV The Palms in Las Vegas, Nevada Main Card Bouts (subject to change): -Joe Stevenson vs. Melvin Guillard -Kenny Florian vs. Dokonjonosuke Mishima -Antoni Hardonk vs. Frank Mir Preliminary Bouts (subject to change): -Wander Braga vs. Kurt Pellegrino -Kuniyoshi Hironaka vs. Jeff Joslin -Wilson Gouveia vs. Hector Ramirez -Naoyuki Kotani vs. Thiago Tavares -Roan Carneiro vs. Anthony Torres Main card airs live on Spike TV on Thursday, April 5 from 8:00 PM to 10:00 PM (ET/PT) as the lead-in to the premiere of The Ultimate Fighter 5 Edited February 16, 2007 by Enter Blue Guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACCBiggz Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 Just some more news to add: Nate Marquardt Granted Title Shot With Anderson Silva. It's about time he has been pushed up the ranks, although it won't draw well because only the Fight Night fans have seen him once against Salavarrey. Also, Leben vs. Starnes has been rumored to happen in May. Jake O'Brien will face Brandon Vera in Vera's last UFC match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why can't he go back to Pride and take Ortiz with him? I like you, Troy, to the extent I have to like someone associated with the Penguins, but I feel obligated to inform you that I'd hide somewhere for about a couple of months. Cro Cop hears and sees all, you know, and he'll probably boot your head off if he finds you. Seriously, though, what's with the Mirko hating?

ACCBiggz Posted February 19, 2007 Report Share Posted February 19, 2007 I was just curious as to why you hated him... and even though the running away thing is a no-no in my books, he's only been in that situation two times, against the #1 HW and Hunt (Who is overrated imo, but I like him). I didn't know if you had a logical reason to dislike him or what. Why dislike him as soon as he debuted anyway? In an un-related note Anderson Silva's PRIDE entrances are gold.
