Crazy to think there were people who went to ufc events and didn’t know what was going on. The commentator saying “what is a guard?” says how far the sport has gotten
I remember UFC 1 and the crowd booing because they didn't understand why combatants were tapping out. I was involved in martial arts in the 80s - Karate Wado Ryu, Kung Fu Pai Lum and kick boxing - and there was endless debates about which was the best. The UFC opened everyone's eyes. As Jim Brown the Co-commentator remarked - fighting is not what we thought it was!
These people paved the way, respect.
Remember going to the video store to get these fights lol. Blockbuster Video.
I was just thinking the same thing from boxing gym to blockbuster those where the days! Take care!
An active fighter in 2023 is 3 fights a year. Royce was out here getting 3 wins in a night.
I have this question why Royce never fought with sumo wrestlers like people who were because he simply couldn't take them down
@@athishkiran1260 oh he did
@@athishkiran1260 Akebono Taro
He was also fighting far lesser competition
Against fucking NOBODIES who can't fight lol
Even the kid Gracie drinking the Coca-Cola is dangerous😂😂😅😂
It is just crazy to think that these guys fought multiple opponents same night and had no idea who those opponents would be. Now we praise guys who will fight on few days notice when these guys fought without knowing their opponent but minutes before the fight
I agree. And there is no weight classification back then.
Early ufc was brutal
3 fights in 1 night respect to these warriors..
Chance one fight and they die for weeks or months 🤣
Lies again? Associate Professor School Hunk
Royce is the original rousimar. He doesn't let go when dudes tap
Because his family owns UFC at the time. It was a glorified infomercial for Gracie JJ
Imagine Mario Yamasaki in early ufc. The casualties would be endless
Mario “if he dies, he dies” Yamasaki
🤣Several years on and you people still giving Mario shit!🤣🤣🤣😂
old school ufc was the shit i miss the no holds barred tournament style
Please upload those 'UFC 25 Years in short' documentary videos! Congrats on 30 years UFC!
"We have a saying back home If your coming on COME ON!" I remember watching this back in the 90s and cracking up when this came on 😂😂😂😂😂😂
*The legend Big John froze when viewing a man who was on the brink of extinction. This is easily one of the most memorable videos on this channel.*
If you’re talking about Pat Smith and Scott Morris, then he didn’t freeze. The early shows were meant to only end in certain ways and he wasn’t supposed to stop fights except under specific situations.
Dummy
@@jordanterry6248he almost let him kill him good thing the guy on top had mercy and realized he was out bc big John was not coming to the rescue that night imagine if he woulda kept elbowing him the way he did he prolly would be dead lol
Rest In Peace, Jim Brown, Jeff Blatnick, Patrick Smith and Emmanuel Yarborough. 🙏
It’s so good to see where it all started, thank you!
Holy shit Severn was an animal.
I miss the Wild West days of the UFC
Keith Hackney is the original BMF, Beat a 6'8 650lb man and then viscously punched Joe Son in the balls 11 times in a row.
Legend
Bruh Keith Hackney was a Chad
😂😂😂😂
and he fought well against Gracie.
That tall long kickboxer dude that kicked the guys teeth into the 6th row was a mean sob that could fr fight too
@@sanperchannel9560 he gouged fighters eyes, caused a Japanese fight become blind.
for me the early UFC was so special, and will always be my fave era. i started watching in 1994 here in the UK and have been hooked ever since .
Yep. Ditto. Was 15 years old
Dude how crazy was dan severn vs oleg taktarov. Just 8 knee drops to the face in a row
@@ZafiraSteveSame man, was 14 and have been hooked ever since.
@@andrewsheppard2404 wish i would’ve been there live man
@@pjmack4351 I'm exactly the same I would normally save up and then buy a pride and a couple of UFC's if I could. I ended up liking pride more than the UFC after a while. During those dark cages pride was absolutely booming
I really hope they do the fans fav 30 fighters and have them all in the octagon like UFC 45
😂 I love the announcers:
“What is that, an arm lock?”
“Oh, yeah. And he’s gonna break his arm-and he did it.”
*they hug 3 seconds after*
😂😂😂 the commentator.." they really attached his arm,,with tape" ,,😅
What a success story over these 30y!! Congrats to this achievement and making MMA more legit, more entertaining.. more everything.
@@beaualoevv one day you’ll wake up and regret posting over 1000 comments on one TH-cam channel.
I was the opposite When I first seen it I was expecting it to be like it is today with wheel kicks flying knees and spinning elbows I was super disappointed I thought martial arts doesn’t work they just roll around on the ground, I didn’t understand jiu jitsu I thought these big guys getting beat by Royce were just giving up cause they were puffed out
Its obviously more legit but is it more exciting? Watching these old clips was more exciting than their last PPV
@@Glassbarbecue_ good point, but I still believe that overall it is more entertaining. Fights as such have way better matchmaking -> more likely to get some back&forth battles and thrillers. The production overall around the fights is 1000x better and the social media content is great isn't it ? This like UFC embedded, slow motions..it's the full package imo :)
@@beaualoevv one day you will wake up and regret doing all of this, your cats must love you.
Now we need 1995
RIP Jim Brown
Dave Severn vs Oleg was awesome
0:58 WOW that is where John Cena learned the stfu
Congratulations and Happy Birthday year, UFC!
Been checking you out since 2017. Love you!
Best mixed martial arts organization of all time
This is real fighting, we should take it back to this
How shit was John McCarthey back then? Guys were tapping for their life and Big John just stood and watched like he didn't know what tapping was.
Dude the ref at UfC 1 was terrible about that.
Definitely no early stoppages back then 😅
Happy 30 Years of the UFC,and Happy 10 Years of me being a huge fans of UFC.
Cheers!
0:01 the first recorded power slap fight
awe I wanted to see the one boxing glove 🥊
That was in UFC 1, was covered in the 1993 video on this channel
Uncle Dana , we want Ngannou vs Jones , even if it is in the ufc or outside.. make this fight happen
Yes! Right on and agree!
Dana tried to get it made. Ngannou didn’t want it.
@@domoshea4104 agree , but now it's the perfect time
@@user-qe3eu7hn1l how is it the prefect time when he’s been released from the UFC & signed with PFL? There’s absolutely no chance of this fight happening.
Once in a lifetime! Now.
Royce Gracie's team got a similar vibe to Charles Oliveria's team
nah the Gracie family is a bunch of pompous pricks and they basically rigged this whole event so Royce would win
OG UFC was real life Bloodsport.
Mario Yamasaki watches these and wonders why Royce lets go of his submissions so early.
Man we need a tournament like these. This shit was so cool. Can you imagen? with all the stars of today
idk feels like the old fighters were built different
Btw i miss the old ufc theme song that was defo fight music 😅
Imagine being a random Nebraska police officer and being able to say you won one of the very first UFC tournaments
I would pay to see a fighting championship with old rules (the few old rules). This is the closest to a real combat.
idk who would sanction fights with nutshots and strikes to the back of the head tho.. it's a good thing that they implemented some more rules
The only rules were no eye gouging and no fishhooking
@@TheSeptuagint and bite?
They have rules for a reason though, you would get some horrific injuries and deaths with no rules in the modern sport.
Royce Gracie and Charles Oliveira could be related
And Tony Robbins looks like their giant long lost brother
I was thinking that too when he walked out. Looked like young olives
That sequence at 2:39 is disturbing. UFC was so vicious back in the days.
Besides the first couples elbows that might have been called as 12-6, everything else is still legal today.
Great compilation 👍
Back in the VHS and renting movies from the video store days 🤔
they should’ve been doing these since january as mini episodes every month
It really was a unique and special time in the early years. I know so much has been reshaped and the format drastically changed since then but it got me thinking could there still not be some cup like one night competitions once in a while also? An 8 or 16 man last man standing tournament using the current rules but with specially adapted rounds would be epic?
There are last man standing tournaments still happening, it's just mostly Striking Combat Sports like Kickboxing, Muay Thai or Lethwei.
I haven't seen or heard of any MMA tournaments of this kind in today's era - but who knows what the future will bring.
Love these!
Royce Gracie should have been DQ'd for not releasing the arm bar when he tapped.
That's right...no need to fracture the forearm of this poor guy...😐
Damn Gracie was super dirty holding on to every sub after the ref stopped it, smh
Those guys were ready to go to war with multiple opponents in one night. You’ll be lucky if you can get ALJAMAINE STERLING to fight twice a year 😂😂😂
That it BS. Aljo is suuper active look it up! Don’t believe the narrative out there.
Royce's entrance in the first one was brilliant. Walked out in a Gi tfat was so new you could still see the creases from the package. He stood awkwardly and in no way looked like he was a threat. The only guy not fooled was Bill 'superfoot' Wallace. He tells his co-host, he tells Jim Brown. Royce strangely posted up threw a weird punch or two, maybe a basic front kick. His opponents saw that snd moved on him. Then they lost
Keith Hackney was the shit. That dude had some really really good stand-up. Shame he didn't get to showcase it. Sharp ass feint game too
“All of these highlights- just beg the question; how good is Conor McGregor really?” - Chael watching this, probably
These ‘probably’ quotes you post aren’t going down too well.
You had to be an animal to compete in the old UFC, imagine taking multiple fights in a night
brings back some awesome memories
Dang it was dope back then!!
Ive been watching UFC since '94. It was when Royce Gracie was still fighting. Kimo, Dan Severn, Ken Shamrock. Real MMA artists! When it started like the Tough Man contest. No dramatic build ups. Just best of the best against the greatest UFC fighter Royce Gracie! I loved watching him fight, and win!
The UFC's journey,is just one of the great journeys!! MMA/UFC is the greatest story in the history of sports,from where it was,to where it's is today!!
Royce was a savage.
splet fag wrong
Старая школа👊
Круто 💪....за один вечер по три боя проводили😉
5:02 Love how Gracie was holding on to the choke even after John stopped it
As soon as the ref touches you shouldn't you know to stop what you're doing?
That looked deliberate
The rules were pretty loose back then. He probably didn't want to risk them restarting the match if he let go too early
@@ffbear8078 Surely Royce could see him tapping. Surely he knew the ref was stopping the fight from there.
@Mr.Wolfchamp 1999 yeah tbf rewatched it and you right those holds were just long
Royce's Grace was mean holding into that guy's arm until he broke it. That is just mean. If any Fighter tried this right now in the UFC. Dana would expell that fighter from the UFC and third career would be ruined.
@@ffbear8078 You were right the first time. In one of the matches from UFC 1 Royce’s opponent blatantly tapped, Royce let go, but for so,e reason the ref let them carry on again. Ever since then Royce made extra sure with every submission.
They should bring back the old trunks , they can wear those sponsor, unique even more better on ea games, and for the fighters
The founding fathers right there! 💯
Remember there was time ufc 90 was a thing!!!!! I saw it live
Now were at ufc 290....
Damn i feel old haha😂
Royce took one look at Harold Howard bouncing around looking fresh and said Fuckkkkk that
😂
2:45 I think that's the most brutal and gory knockout I've ever seen in my life..
Another similar one is Gary Goodridge's crucifiix KO. It reminds me a bit of this one in that the opponent is just so helpless
@@CompleteProducer84 I like ko Pardoel vs Wiet also. 8 elbows to the head
Harold Howard is a legend
He’s coming in with Sumoooooo and JUdooooo lol
I slowed the video down at 8:30 and it appears to me that the guy by the gate out side of the cage actually opens the cage door rather than it accidentally being opened by the fighters. He then appears to tell commands to one of the fighters so I'm assuming he wanted his fighter in a better position so he forced the reset. Idk could be totally wrong and way too high
I thought you were crazy at first, but after reviewing it, you might actually be right.
I have to say it's a bit disgusting watching royce holding onto submissions way past of the ref calling the fight.
Bring back the old days of no holds barred. That sh*t looked brutal. 😅
Royce would not let go of the submission on all his finishes. Dirty
Why doesn't Gracie ever let go when the opponent taps?
God the refs were fucking blind for like the first ten minutes of the video. “Oh he broke his arm” fool was only tapping for 10 seconds😂
Back then nobody gave a fuck if he broke your arm, the fight goes on untill you are buried in Shadow Realm
"all of those Gracies are deadly. Trust me. The one drinking the Coca Cola right now? You dont want it." 3:47
😂🤣😆
9:35 damn John. How times have changed
Glad that weight classes were introduced 😅
3:27 Such a great stoppage by the ref
Nice 🙄🙄
That was cool, the game came along way!!
Time flies🎉
I love hearing the old commentary whenever 90% of them have no idea what's going on
Big John has come a long way lol those were some laaaaaate stopages
UFC in 1994 was the Wild West.
0:12 aljo in ONE championship
joyful childhood memories
the glazing on royce is crazy
18:53 Royce Gracie vs Dan Severn "The Beast"
Imagine Mario Yamasaki in that era 😵
Early UFC aesthetics had soul, now it looks very corporate and bland. They need to have the 30 years logo for all events.
20:42 Is that Al Snow in Severn's corner ??
Good video
Mike Tyson is Dan Severn was having a conversation😂
個人還是比較喜歡看早期的UFC比賽
Gracie was the real OG of BJJ.
Last fight Royce went on a 15 min single round fight thats insane
pay the fighters more- it's embarrassing having fighters post-fight beg for performance bonuses to feed their families. fighters are getting paid 12k to show in the biggest mma organization in the world.
2:52 Vini Jr looks scary in that one 😮
