Shark pond and electric fence?? Dude wanted to create the real life mortal kombat 😂😂😂😂

[@taekwondorian]

I just wanna say thank you to everyone involved in creating the UFC

[@Razear]

Imagine if that electric fence idea got greenlit...KOs, submissions, and human toast.

There is, it's name is Herb Dean

[@Ben-cl2co]

The story of how it started to where it is today is amazing. Allthough i really miss the old era. The different styles vs eachother is so cool. Now MMA is pretty much its own style.

[@job7973]

Good documentary, but you cut it short, could have at least said who won first tournament, and briefly say how UFC progressed from there.

[@JasonMcGarva]

You can watch the whole episode for free at the link in the first comment. I just watched it.

[@lizzkaayako2270]

@DagwoodDogwoggle Absolutely terrible? They worked well enough to take down his opponents.

[@farnstonellerby6539]

@DagwoodDogwoggle Whom did Royce try to take down, but couldn't? Your claims about the early UFCs stand factually incorrect.

[@farnstonellerby6539]

@DagwoodDogwoggle Stay on topic, lad. We're not discussing imaginary fights Royce never had against Severn, Couture, and Liddell. We're discussing whether or not Gracie's takedowns worked in his UFC fights. They did. Since they were clearly effective, they can't be "absolutely horrible," as you've claimed above.

[@rachelcohen4267]

@DagwoodDogwoggle You're speculating Severn *would* have beaten Royce in a rematch at UFC 5, and also stating that Couture and Liddell would have beaten Royce. Maybe they would have, but the thing is, those fights you're speculating about never happened. And had Severn had handled Gracie easily at UFC 4, Severn wouldn't have tapped out....i'm not sure if you're trolling or just a moron. I'm assuming the former, so... at least *try* harder to be convincing at it.

[@leonardogranic-flores1860]

Back when UFC was real.

[@25taylorkw]

What is that supposed to mean? The UFC fights of today are not scripted ( unless you got some receipts ). Sure you can say that the UFC does favor some fighters in some way like having the judges score the fight that goes the distance in favor for the more favorite fighter ( if the fight was close to call ), and having certain fighters not getting punished for feel drug test ( like Jon Jones with the whole picograms excuse ). But just because some fighters get favoritism based off of popularity, that does not mean the fighters still have a chance to win the fights.

I remember when Royce came back to the UFC and fought Matt Hughes under todays rules and Hughes dog walked Royce. I liked Hughes but it was a sad day for me because I had never seen Royce lose in the UFC. He lost bad that day. It’s a miracle he made it out of the octagon.

Everything starts from somewhere. No Need to be so arrogant!!

[@AnyoneCanSee]

New events, especially a completely new sport, take years to build up an audience. Do you think NBA was as big as it is from day one? No sport was massive from day one. You don't know what you are talking about. He had the "vision" to create it and make it successful. Building on that is more about finance and marketing than "vision". I doubt you have created anything.

[@josceola8979]

Oh shut up scrub

[@NotUrDJ]

​@@AnyoneCanSeenope u just don't know the history. Art was persistent on no holds barred fighting. It could never be big with those awful fights, would never get sanctioned. This was why art started another promotion cause he only wanted no holds barred fighting.

[@khanofkhans6546]

What does that matter? UFC of today is hugely different then the first UFC events. It's almost 2 completely different things. One was single style vs single style. Now it's guys training every element to be more complete as a fighter to have a better chance at winning. Without this original UFC we may not have had the UFC of the last 20 years.
