Movie Reviews of Ultimate Fighting Championship Classics Collection, Vol. 1-4
Movie Review: UFC in the 1990's
Summary: 5 Stars
I still remember when I first purchased UFC 3 on VHS in the 90's. It was so fresh, underground, and controversial. There were allot fewer rules and no weight classes, and the fighters were masters of their own disciplines. I liked seeing a master of jiu jitsu face off against a master of kickboxing. Today nobody really has a single discipline (they are all mixed martial artist). That is really the huge difference that you will see. The old tournaments featured men, who had dedicated their life to their craft and were true masters of their discipline. Case in point, Royce Gracie is better at Jiu Jitsu than any current MMA fighter, but he also isn't as well rounded as todays fighters, who are well versed in multiple fighting styles.
I also liked how these original tournaments addressed age old questions, such as which fighting discipline is the best, or can a David really beat a Goliath? I also like the classic way the tournament was run. 8 fighters began and winning fighters would advance to the next round to face each other until only one man was left standing as champion.
Yes, I agree that today's fighters are probably better than the ones you will see in these old tournaments, but these guys laid the ground work.
