3.0 out of 5 stars
good on paper, but a mediocre event., January 13, 2009
This review is from: UFC Classics, Vol. 12 (DVD)
UFC 12 was a night of firsts in mma. This was the first event in ufc history to be not hold at least an 8-man tournament. The ufc decided for this event to set up two four-man tournaments and finally institute weight classes, a 199 & under class and a 200 & above. It was somewhat pointless however as the two winners, Jerry Bohlander and a debuting Vitor Belfort, were seperated by less than 5 lbs. It was a night when a heavyweight title was also created. Dan Severn fought Mark Coleman, who took over the spot of don frye, in a battle of two of the biggest competitors the ufc had seen up until that point. It was a letdown however as Severn was submitted rather easily by Coleman in under three minutes.
