This review is from: Ultimate Fighting Championship Vol. 2 - UFC Hits (DVD)

Love UFC and other MMA competitions. This is a great DVD for those people who do not want to buy each and every UFC out there. It covers the best fights between UFC 17 up to UFC Japan. The first 8 fights are cut and edited, so don't expect a lot of action (average showtime for each fight: 2 minutes). They go by pretty quickly. However, they are taken from some of the best fights ever, and reveal just how diverse a fighter needs to be in order to win UFC (unlike the first UFCs, where it would be kickboxer vs. grappler- now it is strictly MMA vs. MMA). The last 5 fights are unedited (nice length), and fantastic! Tito Ortiz vs. Frank Shamrock is one of, if not, the best. Eugene Jackson shows some great patience against a newcomer in UFC Japan, and in the very last fight, Rizzo vs. TK, both fighters try to prove once again why he is one of the best fighters of all time. Much more defense in this video than a lot of the earlier UFCs. This video does not have the violence and gore held in the previous videos. It is more likely to please those audience memebers who are intensely interested in MMA (like myself). However, the average guy on a few beers will most likely drool over this DVD as well. The interview with Bas Rutton is really cool, though the two "special" fights (where you can switch camera angles) are pretty lame. They come from the earliest of UFCs, and are over pretty quickly (although they are pretty intense, even for being strictly "one-discipline" fights). Overall, a great buy. The 13 (plus 2) fights are great, especially the last 5 unedited fights. Great selection of fighters, from the names (Tank, Tito, Rizzo) to the unknowns. Buy this DVD if you are a fan of MMA and UFC.

If you enjoyed watching UFC hits volume 1, i expect you will get a good time by watching this DVD. The fights on this DVD are somewhat different than the ones that can be seen on UFC hits 1. The other reviewers of this DVD also mentioned this. What i especially like about this DVD, is that most of the fights shown lasted longer than the fight on UFC hits 1. You can watch the complete match of Frank Shamrock vs. Tito Ortiz. That means more than 15 minutes of action. What an athlete Shamrock is. I am a great fan of the fighting style of Marco Ruas and for that reason find it great to see Pedro Rizzo representing the Ruas Vale Tudo style. Especially the match against the vicious 'Tank' Abbott in Ultimate Brazil.
There are som extra features on this dvd that are worth mentioning. The multi-angle kamera fight of Orlando Weit is one that you should not forget to watch.
Also the interview with Bas Rutten is quit interesting. He tells the viewer that in highschool he was't a popular guy at all and he had astma. A while ago he had a reunion and met his old classmates and they all turned out to be losers in a bad physical shape. He got the microphone and asks if there are persons who still wanted to fight with him. Great guy, Bas Rutten. Also a great fight can be seen on this dvd with this former King of Pancrase.
Interesting fights with KO's as well as submissions. A great DVD.

4.0 out of 5 stars A lot for your money, August 14, 2001

This review is from: Ultimate Fighting Championship Vol. 2 - UFC Hits (DVD)

If you watch Hits 1 & 2 back to back, it's like watching the evolution of MMA tournaments. The first DVD contains quick bloody brawls with lopsided matchups. As the DVD progresses, the opponents become more diverse and the fights become a lot more that simple brawls or 1 minute knockouts.

The fights in Hits 2 are far more technical and the opponents are more evenly matched. Some spectators might complain that these fights are boring compared to the ones in Hits 1, others may complain that the rules have changed for the worse, making "No Hold Barred" a thing of the past.

I think Hits 2 is equally enjoyable, just... different. There isn't the mad adrenaline we saw in the first... but there's a lot of strategy. The new breed of MMA fighters draw their talents and skills from a lot of tools, and althought the matches are quick, they take their time and utilize their enrgy more efficiently.

So, if you want the nasty fights, be sure to buy Hits 1. If you want to see strategy, get this one. If you're a big fan, you'll get both.
