4.0 out of 5 stars UFC 4, February 5, 2003

By

This review is from: Ultimate Fighting Championship 4 [VHS] (VHS Tape)

UFC 4 saw the return of the enigmatic ROYCE GRACIE. After a vicious match in UFC 3 with KIMO, Gracie was forced to throw in the towel before the match started. And now he returns to the Octagon for some new challengers and some new fighters.

Gracie was awesome in this one as usual. He walked over RON "THE BLACK DRAGON" VAN CLEEF in about 2 minutes. Van Cleef is also the oldest fighter to fight in the Octagon at 52 (at the time). Gracie had some trouble against The Giant Killer KEITH HACKNEY, who defeated 600+ lbs of Sumo wrestler EMMANUEL YARBROUGH in UFC 3. But to get to Gracie, Hackney had his hands full with Judo wrestler JOE SON.

In my opinion, this was one of my favorite matches of this particular UFC. Trust me, Hackney gets Son to tap in a "Different way". It's very brutal. Hackney also did what very few fighters have done against Gracie and that's stay on your feet.

And who could forget the debut of DAN "THE BEAST" SEVERN. Severn was awesome in this one and he had 2 very quick and very brutal matches against ANTHONY MACIAS, Thai Kickboxing and MARCUS BOSSETT, Karate.

The biggest disappointment of this one is that reigning UFC 3 Champ STEVE JENNUM diesn't even get to defend his title. He fights one fight and gets hurt. A bit on the weak side and from there, I'm with the critics as well (Jennum should not have won UFC 3). Plus his opponent MELVIN BOWEN made boxers around the world look bad. Anyway check out this one for Gracie, Hackney and Severn. Those 3 make this one worth it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Worth it., January 27, 2002

This took place during a good period during the UFC...Gracie was at the top of his game and Severn was in his early UFC years. Obviously they are the highlights of this tape, as Severn debuts here and just destroys everything in his path (the Severn vs. Macias fight includes one of the most memorable moments in UFC history...you'll know it when you see it). Gracie does well, although he has a B.S. first match which basically made it so he only had to fight two real fights to get into the finals. The Severn vs. Gracie final is a little long but very entertaining. Severn had Gracie's number here but Gracie wins on what many people consider a fluke (which may be true, since Gracie never had a rematch with him after this fight). Well worth your money.

5.0 out of 5 stars UFC IV: A new Chapter!, July 9, 2000

This review is from: Ultimate Fighting Championship 4 [VHS] (VHS Tape)

There were more bloody, rock em'-sock em', and terrible mismatches, but UFCIV saw a new chapter in the whole package. For the first time "real" announcers announced, and we saw more preparation used by the fighters. This marked as the last UFC with the no time-limit rules, as Royce Gracie used everything to regain his title. A super card, with great techical and some nut-shot fights. A true classic, and to ths day remains my favorite UFC!
