Product Description

This DVD captivates and shocks fans with the all real, no-hold's-barred combat of the original UFC event. Extras inculde Royce Gracie and Ken Shamrock commentary, on-camera introduction by Gracie and Shamrock, interview, and multiangle bonus fights.

Amazon.com

The booming popularity of "Ultimate Fighting" and all the attendant superstar DVD compilations in constant release has sparked a lot of interest for new fans to work their way backwards in the history of the "sport." The tagline on the box is, "In the Beginning There Were No Rules." Not much has changed in Ultimate Fighting since these bouts were documented in 1994--there are still no rules, and the hits, chops, body blows and blood are more real than anything that tame-in-comparison professional wrestling has to offer. Ultimate Fighting usually involves matches that pit fighters with two completely different styles in an octagonal cage. There's no corner to escape to -- no escape at all, in fact. Legends in this collection include Royce Gracie who demonstrates his own brand of Jiu-Jitsu, and Ken Shamrock, whose specialty is something called Submission Fighting. This is raw, brutal stuff, which is exactly what makes it so exciting for hardcore UFC devotees. --Ted Fry

My dad, friend, and I went to this event. I did not know that this was on DVD, but we are on camera quite a few times and I enjoyed reliving it.

UFC 1 : The Beginning

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 23, 2008

Verified Purchase

UFC 1 is the first mega event that brought mixed martial arts to the American people and media. It took place on November 12, 1993 at Denver, Colorado and was touted as a MMA event that had " No rules, No scores, and No time limits". It featured different styles of martial arts and fighting against each other. It was broken into 4 fights with 8 fighters.

Fight 1 featured Gerard Gordeau (Savate) vs Teila Tuli (Sumo)
Fight 2 featured Kevin Rosier (kickboxing) vs Zane Frazier (Karate)
Fight 3 featured Royce Gracie (Jiu-Jitsu ) vs Art Jimmerson (Boxing)
Fight 4 featured Ken Shamrock (Shootfighting) vs Pat Smith (Tae Kwon Do)

The fights were entertaining, but very short. Seeing 410 pd Tuli rummble after Gerard was crazy, and seeing boxer Art Jimmerson try to fight Royce with one boxing on his left hand was ridiculous. The Royce/Jimmerson was the worst, with Jimmerson basically tapping after Gracie took him down and lied on him. The event champion earned $50,000, and went on to become a MMA household name.

The DVD is pretty bare as far as added features go. There are just the fights, plus 2 interviews with Ken Shamrock and Royce Gracie.

As other have recommended, this is a must DVD for MMA fans to see where it all started, and how far MMA has come today!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 4, 2006

Yes, don't let the CLASSICS part of the title fool you. This is not just another "Greatest Hits" DVD (of which there are already way too many). This is the entire first Ultimate Fighting Championship - UFC 1. It features such stars as Royce Gracie (currently making his comeback) and Ken Shamrock. Both men are legends in MMC. The quality is great. Like many other people I have been buying the old videos and burning my own DVDs. I'd much rather have the old UFCs in factory DVD. I can't imagine why they are not listing this in the UFC store online. When everyone catches on, this is going to sell like hotcakes. So far only UFC 1 and UFC 2 have been released, but surely they will go on to 3 and 4 all the way up to 38 when they see how well this sells. (39 and up are already available on DVD). Do not panic when your screen seems to jump all around during the introductions. It is just a special effect they tried. It stops when the fights begin. The announcers are the legendary football great Jim Brown and one of the greatest fighters of all time Mr. Superfoot Wallace who has done everything from PKA Karate to bodygaurding (and training) John Belushi.

This card was absolutely brutal. I saw it on ESPN+ and it got me to start watching a bunch of the original cards. There really were NO rules, and it shows....The announcers are no Joe Rogan...but they will sure give you a laugh..a lot of them.

Legends Are Born

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 25, 2006

Verified Purchase

This DVD captures the birth of what is soon to be a national phenomenon, the UFC. Royce Gracie emerges as an unassuming champion. His quiet confidence and almost eerily calm demeanor serve to mask the heart of a lion. To fans of the sport, it is great seeing Royce in his glory days again. The MMA game may have passed him by (some of which may be attributable to age), but in his prime he was a grappler without peer and it is a joy to watch.

The "no rules" format was at times, cruel and brutal. I still cannot fathom how groin shots were allowed. If all you know about the UFC is the current rules and format, it is well worth your while seeing these bouts with no time limits, rounds or rules.

I look forward to the release of all previously unreleased UFC events.

This dvd has got 2 be in your collection if u like MMA. Ufc1 is where it all started,Don't come in looking for 15 minute long fights u'll be sorely disappointed. What this dvd shows is that some styles just are fairly useless in a street fight, which ufc1 was (no rules!!) it gives u a chance to see guys that specialise in one single art..other than now where everybody is a grappler.... and it also shows royce gracie's american coming out party...trust me watch this dvd and see why this guy became feared and a legend!

I had UFC 1 and VHS video tape and was excited when I found this DVD, shame some fights are missing but still a must own product for any MMA or Gracie fan. Also I never noticed that is was in a different region than used in the UK so i can only play on the PC but I still would have bought it anyway :)

This was awesome, most had no gloves

Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on May 1, 2017

Verified Purchase

I remember watching this on pay per view when it first happened, there was a lot of hype about it. I watched this dvd last night and I forgot about how cheesy the graphics were back then....but it rivals 70s porn in cheesiness. This was awesome, most had no gloves, some of what the fighters wore to fight in was kind of ridiculous compared to nowadays, tournament style, headbutts were allowed, one guy was fighting with a broken hand and possibly a broken foot, he still bucked up and made it to the final against Royce. I loved it, one of my favorite parts was Royce Gracie's post fight interview, such sincerity, it was also great to see how much UFC and mma has evolved

記念すべきUFC第1回大会。ホイスグレイシーの戦いを見たくて購入。残念ながら、1回戦ではカットされている試合があります。総合格闘技の戦い方を知らない選手が、次々とグレイシーの蟻地獄にはまっていく様は観ていて圧巻。優勝した後もホイスの顔が傷も無くきれいなのが印象的。注意点としては、北米版なので日本の家庭用DVDプレイヤーでは視聴できません。私はPCでリージョンフリーのDVDドライブとリージョンフリーの再生ソフトを使用して視聴しました。
