The Ultimate Mixed Martial Artist is presented in three sections:

Your Mentors: Shawn Tompkins, Forrest Griffin, Shawn Yarborough, and Anuwat Kaewsamrit.
Part Two: Striking to Takedown and Takedown Defense

Your Mentors: Jon Fitch, Greg Jackson, Forrest Griffin, Shawn Tompkins, Anderson Silva, Karo Parisyan, Erin Toughill, and Dave Camarillo.
Part Three: The Clinch
