Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - UFC fixed fight?
For those who haven't seen it, I won't spoil it here. This card features a fight that could have been fixed. Hopefully this won't be MMA's first steps toward copying the crooked boxing world.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - "He is thinking one thing and I'm doing the other, the fight can be over"
One of the many reasons that make MMA a great sport is how quickly things can change and the fact that favorites can go down in a jiffy. In this sense, UFC 69 was a great event, with several great fights and a couple of surprises. However, there are two things that gave me mixed feelings towards this DVD. First, there are a couple of undercard fights that are not good at all, and even more surprisingly, the fight between Sanchez and Koscheck, which I expected to be one of the best in the event, was ...

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - 4 Stars for Event-2 for DVD
Luke Cummo vs. Josh Haynes, Marcus Davis vs. Pete Spratt, Thales Leites vs. Pete Sell, Heath Herring vs. Brad Imes, Kendall Grove vs. Alan Belcher,
Yushin Okami vs. Mike Swick, Leonard Garcia vs. Roger Huerta, Josh Koscheck vs. Diego Sanchez, Georges St. Pierre vs. Matt Serra. This was a pretty decent lineup. A lot of good matches. Sure some were mismatches, but there is a big upset on the card, so anything can happen in the cage. Even the one sided matches are entertaining because of the ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - UFC DVDs reach a new low
- Breaks in between rounds are cut

- No prefight/postfight interview, except main event

- No replay of the KO... or analysis of something in slomo.

- No victory celebration from the winning fighter... everything is cut.

- Main Menu setup looks extremely cheap starting from UFC 69.

Honestly, I don't understand... usually the tendencies are, that the quality of a product gets better with time. Clearly not the case with UFC DVDs. The ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Amazing event
For those who were lucky to see the event live, I envy you. This event definately stands out from the past few as it had it all. It had knockouts, a darce choke, pillow fist punches from the mount, a leg lock, comedy on the microphone, and most importantly: the biggest upset in UFC history.

If there was a time for the saying "anything can happen in MMA", Matt Serra (11-1 underdog) proved it with his dynamite fists and knocking off and out George St. Pierre. Remember, George St. Pierre was ... Read More
