UFC's Fight Pass is a really cool service that I think most people use to watch terrible prelim fights. I know Bundt Cake has been going through, watching all of a dude's fights and reporting back on improvements (Or lack thereof), but sometimes it's fun to just watch cool poo poo. Fight Pass doesn't currently have any kind of playlist feature which is dumb, but I put a few together that I think are pretty rad. Also, the good thing about Fight Pass is that you don't have to worry about a video getting taken down (I assume :ohdear:

)

The Yves Edwards Collection - Yves "Thugjitsu Master" Edwards is a cool dude that's been fighting since before Michael McDonald was born, probably. Here are some of his more memorable moments.

vs Edson Berto, EliteXC Street Certified - This is one of my favorite finishes ever. I'm still not convinced that Yves obeys the laws of gravity if he doesn't feel like it.
vs Josh Thomson, UFC 49 - Another one of the most fantastic finishes in MMA, at least in terms of "holy hell how did that work?"
vs Jeremy Stephens, UFC on Fox - One of Yves' best displays of counter-striking. Such a beautiful KO.
vs Cody McKenzie, UFC Fight for the Troops - a drunk hobo gets belligerent in his quest for change and accosts Yves, who must use the jitsu part of Thugjitso to pacify the derelict.
vs Rafaello Oliveira, UFC Live 6 - Another good striking display out of Edwards, but it's also notable because Yamasaki lets a dude get murdered for not particular reason.
vs Rich Clementi, UFC 41 - Clementi ain't a bad grappler, but Yves had already faced Matt Serra and Caol Uno, so "No Love" was "No Threat". Edwards kickboxes him up a bit and then takes care of things in the third. Good fight.
vs Nick Gonzales, EliteXC Renegade - Yves was on a bit of a skid, having dropped 3 in a row to Joe Stevenson, Mike Brown and Jorge Masvidal, so here's a squash match. Gonzalez is an ok boxer, but his nonexistent ground game is no match for THUGJITSU.
vs Dokonjonosuke Mishima, PRIDE Bushido 7 - Do you like grappling? This is a pretty rad fight for that.

Splish-Splash, Blood Bath - JUST BLEED, BABY! BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD! :unsmigghh:

Jay Hieron vs Jonathan Goulet, UFC Fight Night - The fight Dana White has said is too bloody and would never be broadcast. Now it's on Fight Pass, yay!
Edwin DeWees vs Gideon Ray, TUF 4 episode 2 - Skip to 18:35 to see the start of the fight. DeWees employs the "bleed into opponent's face" tactic to great effect here.
Jon Madsen vs Abe Wagner, TUF 10 episode 1 - Skip to 25:20 for the fight. We got SUPPERWEIGHT action, featuring Rampage Jackson's expert coaching advice ("GET UP! SCORE POINTS! KNOCK HIM OUT!").
Stefan Struve vs Denis Stojnic, UFC 99 - More SUPPERWEIGHTS, this time featuring our favorite newborn giraffe doing what he does best: getting his rear end kicked in round one, then coming back to win in the second.
Cain Velasquez vs Antonio Silva, UFC 146 - Even more SUPPERWEIGHTS, execpt one of them is actually good. This results in most of Bigfoot Silva's face-blood making a rapid escape from his skull.
Joe Stevenson vs BJ Penn, UFC 80 - Before Renan Barao feasted upon the blood of newborns, BJ Penn ate up Joe Daddy's plasma.
Jeremy Stephens vs Estevan Payan, UFC 160 - Payan leaves a GIANT puddle of blood in the second round. Time to make carnage angels!
Josh Koscheck vs Chris Lytle, UFC 86 - Poor Chris Lytle, such a shame to suffer a blood-letting at the hands of a Fraggle.
Sean Sherk vs Kenny Florian, UFC 64 - HELLBOWS FOR DAYS
Mark Hunt vs Antonio Silva, UFC Fight Night - Even without the blood, you need to see this fight. It is fantastic and wonderful and all that is right in the world of this dumb sport.

Other playlists in the coming days: Muy Muay Thai, Submission Magicians, The Bubba McDaniel Death Reel. Feel free to make suggests or make your own list of poo poo for us to watch!

I just got fightpass a couple weeks ago and this was the first thing I looked for but I haven't found any fights I want to watch with audio or camera options.

I was watching through all the old UFCs in order before I got a subscription but now I can do it more conveniently so I might speed through it a little quicker. I'm up to and finished UFC 26 ULTIMATE FIELD OF DREAMS which was Kevin Randleman's first title defense against Pedro Rizzo after that fight got delayed when Randleman cracked his head backstage months earlier.

Here is a cool garbage fight from UFC 26 - Amaury Bitetti vs. Alex Andrade.

At this point in UFC history there was still a rule in effect that if you wore wrestling shoes you were not allowed to throw kicks. Andrade scores a knockdown in round 1 and follows it up with a kick to the head of Bitetti while he is down, earning his first warning from John McCarthy. The fight starts to go Andrade's way as he gets another knockdown and he is probably winning on the scorecards. Later in Round 1 Andrade throws a leg kick. McCarthy deducts a point, telling Andrade's corner "I'm not stupid, tell him to stop those kicks". Early in round 2 Andrade throws a head kick and is disqualified. Also :ortiz:

on commentary.

KICK OUT THE JAMS -- Leg kicks. Body kicks. Head kicks. You like kicks? I like kicks. Kickboxing is a cool sport and it turns out some kickboxers have also been really good UFC fighters. Savate, Muay Thai, karate... We got it all. And of course... MARK HUNTO DES!

Anthony Pettis vs. Benson Henderson -- WEC 53 -- The famous "showtime kick" off the wall.
Lyoto Machida vs. Randy Couture -- UFC 129 -- The famous "Crane kick" off Randy's face. SWEEP THE LEG JOHNNY!
Anderson Silva vs. Vitor Belfort -- UFC 126 -- Anderson hits an awesome kick on Belfort's jaw.
Georges St-Pierre vs. Matt Hughes -- UFC 65 -- GSP won the welterweight championship off Matt Hughes via TKO that involved a beautiful front-leg head kick.
Mirko Cro Cop vs. Wanderlei Silva -- PRIDE: Final Conflict Absolute -- One of PRIDE's best strikers takes on the Brazilian Axe Murderer. One of the greatest KOs from 2006.
Mark Hunt vs. Mirko Cro Cop -- PRIDE: Shockwave 2005 -- Arguably the best striker to ever strike people in striking history versus a former Croat special forces dude.
Junior Dos Santos vs. Mark Hunt -- UFC 160 -- Ends with a spinning hook kick. Okay, not the best kickboxing clinic out there, but it's an awesome fight.
Antoni Hardonk vs. Pat Barry -- UFC 104 -- Two great kickboxers face off against each other in the Octagon. This fight won Fight of the Night honors. Pat Barry
Gabriel Gonzaga vs. Mirko Cro Cop -- UFC 70 -- Considered to be one of the best head kick KOs in UFC history.
Randy Couture vs. Gabriel Gonzaga -- UFC 74 -- A losing effort for Gonzaga, but this fight is notable for the fact Gonzaga broke Randy's arm with a kick in this fight.
Forrest Griffin vs. Rich Franklin -- UFC 126 -- Griffin and Franklin are both well-known for their kickboxing skills. Griffin gets the better of Franklin in this contest.
Jose Aldo vs. Frankie Edgar -- UFC 156 -- Aldo is famous for his knees and kicks, especially his low roundhouse kicks. Unfortunately his title defense against Faber at WEC 48 doesn't seem to be on Fight Pass as an individual fight, although I found the entire show.
Dennis Siver vs. Nate Mohr -- UFC 93 -- Dennis Siver has not one but two finishes by spinning back kick on his record. This is the first of them.

Sad/Funny Comebacks & Upsets

Mark Coleman vs. Pete Williams (UFC 17) - The hammer is struck down emphatically in overtime of this plodding gas-fest. He is very tired.
Kazushi Sakuraba vs. Nino "Elvis" Schembri (PRIDE 25: Body Blow) - Saku is like a lion toying with his food, and what did you do, you blew it.
Robbie Lawler vs. Melvin Manhoef (Strikeforce: Miami) - An unrefined Lawler is in trouble for this entire fight.
Anderson Silva vs. Chael Sonnen (UFC 148) - Math teacher Rich Franklin poses a geometry riddle to successor Silva - What has no balls and one triangle?
Cung Le vs. Rich Franklin (UFC Fight Night Macau) - World record holder for most eggs destroyed with kicks faces an egghead math teacher, not really an upset.
Travis Browne vs. Alistair Overeem (UFC Fight Night: Shogun vs. Sonnen) - Like beating a dead horse.

Scott Smith is like the king of comebacks, also of sadness.

vs Pete Sell, TUF 4 Finale - From the Matt Brown School of Not Giving A gently caress About Liver Shots.

vs Benji Radach, Strikeforce: Shamrock vs Diaz - Both guys get dropped in the first, then Radach beats Smith up in the second. The third has more of Radach hurting Smith, until Scott obliterates Benji.

vs Cung Le, Strikeforce: Evolution - Cung Le basically kicks Scott around the entire fight. Scott gets dropped twice in the first round, once in the second, and then destroys Cung's nose in the third.

Watch both Weidman Silva fights. Ray Longo gets absolutely overjoyed watching Silva's leg break horribly.

Also, Miesha Ronda 2. Ronda's corner is unfortunately dominated by some dumbass Armenian guy who thinks Ronda is some elite striker, but on the ground you can hear Rener Gracie going nuts about everything and its fun.

The Best Celebrations

Stephan Bonnar vs Krzystof Soszynski II - UFC 116
http://www.ufc.tv/video/stephan-bonnar-vs-krzystof-soszynski-ufc-116

American hero Stephan Bonnar gets his grudge match against the villain from Here Comes The Boom. Finally putting it together for the first time in what seemed like forever and storming back to victory, Bonnar celebrates in the way only a dork who dreams about knocking out Mark Coleman with a spinning back kick can.

Renan Barao vs Eddie Wineland - UFC 165
http://www.ufc.tv/video/renan-barao-vs-eddie-wineland-ufc-165

Renan Barao, however, is someone who does more than dream of spinning kicking people unconscious--he does it. Its a shame he finally tasted defeat, because his celebrations were increasingly becoming a thing of beauty.

Jose Aldo vs Cub Swanson - WEC 41
http://www.ufc.tv/video/jose-aldo-vs-cub-swanson-wec-41

Renan's celebration mentor, Jose Aldo, is also keen to present the world a festive dance in the immediate aftermath of committing unspeakable acts of violence. The stuff of nightmares.

GERMAN SUPLEX TIME :siren:

I think the suplex, especially the German, is one of the key things that can unite all of PSP (except for the boxing dudes, unless Bernard Hopkins decides to become an even dirtier fighter), so here are some fights featuring BIG TIME THROWS

Kevin Randleman vs Fedor Emelianenko, PRIDE Critical Countdown 2004 - The kind of dangerous German that can only be found in Japan (Or I guess your average backyard indy wrestling fed). This probably helped add to that terrible bleep-blorp, fedor is an unfeeling russian cyborg stuff.

Dan Severn vs Anthony Macias, UFC 4 - Dan Severn and his mustache throw around a dude he outweighs by like 70 pounds because the early UFCs were AWESOME.

Rustam Khabilov vs Vinc Pichel, TUF 16 Finale - Hobby Lobby's debut, and GAT DAM if it wasn't spectacular.

Rory MacDonald vs Nate Diaz, UFC 129 - Look, Rory's a weirdo, but he's fighting a Diaz, so it's kind of a wash, right? Besides, he basically suplexed Nate back down to lightweight, which is best for all involved.

Cheick Kongo vs Mirko Cro Cop, UFC 75 - The Legend of the Ball Hunter begins

Cheick Kongo vs Mostapha Al Turk, UFC 92 - The Legend Continues

What's crazy is that this is an understatement. Joe son, convicted gang rapist and torturer, is easily the worst person to ever compete in the ufc and/or play a bit part in a Mike Meyers
film. (Watch this fight with Hackney)

Two notes on this fight: It was from the first Fight for the Troops event raising money for Traumatic Brain Injury research, and one of the main reasons War Machine was released (there were many) was that he ducked a fight with Wolff saying that he was a killer.

That first fight for the troops card was vicious all the way through and a great watch

You forgot about Edson Barboza!

vs Mike Lullo, UFC 123 - The first Barboza Leg Kick TKO

Thanks everyone for all the links. I've signed up for the 7 day trial and I'm seriously contemplating paying for the service. I have a question about the above fight: Every time Barboza escapes to standing, or just knocks Lullo down with a leg kick, the ref steps between the fighters in order to give Lullo a lot of space and time to get up safely. Is this normal? It doesn't really seem right to me.

vainman: Nov 2, 2012; I find your lack of faith... disturbing

If the standing guy, Barbosa in this case, gestures that he doesn't want to go to the ground the ref will stand up the other guy to avoid a long break in the action.

Best celebration was Brad Pickett punching out Yves Jabouin and then galloping around the cage like an rear end in a top hat

I haven't seen that fight in a while so I don't remember the specifics but if you motion the guy up or step away and disengage the ref will stand the guy up, and he's allowed to get up without you attacking

You can of course try to stand up with the guy right in front of you but he's free to kick the poo poo out of you while you do it

Can someone please put together a list of awesome grappling (slick transitions, two guys just rolling around like monkeys, or one dude dancing all over the other) matches? Less interested in huge slams and more interested in the kind of stuff that one dude who isn't in the UFC does... what's his name, the guy who went to OneFC recently.

The dude you're thinking of is Ben Askren, and I can't make a list but off the top of my head but watch Demian Maia vs Jason Macdonald. Best grappling match I can recall happening in the UFC. Heck, All of Maia's early UFC fights are good if you want a pure BJJ styling.

Stephan Bonnar vs Kyle Kingsbury, UFC 139 - Bonnar styles all over Kingsbury and the dumb fans boo because they are stupid idiots.

Genki Sudo vs Leigh Remedios, UFC 38 - Genki Sudo has a fun as hell grappling game, and this this is probably one of the slickest RNCs.

David Mitchell vs TJ Waldburger, UFN 22 - This fight probably has the most submission attempts. It's fun and scrambley.

Alan Belcher vs Rouismar Palhares, UFC Fight Night - Everyone talks about how devastating Paul Harris is at leg locks. Alan Belcher shuts that poo poo DOWN.

Just a few to get started. I know there are a lot I'm forgetting, but my brain ain't working too hot at the moment.

Yeah, I know who some of the better pure grapplers are but the problem is of course, their fights don't always highlight their talents! Thanks for the tip. I've only watched one or two Maia fights - I remember his choke/crank on Rick Story being pretty awesome - but I feel like he's one of those fighters who everyone "knows" is the best BJJ guy out there but I haven't seen his best MMA BJJ. You know what I mean?

My favorite thing to see a grappler do is spin on their stomach on a turtled opponent. There's something about watching one guy "ride" another guy like that. Makes me feel funny. Our dumb gay sport indeed. Guard passes - like the ones GSP is famous for - are also awesome. I'm trying to develop an eye for all the tiny little subtle things that make grappling "work", i.e. like if your center of gravity is an inch over to the left or right all of a sudden you have total dominance. I like the Gracie breakdowns for this. Rogan is terrible in many ways, one of which is that he glosses over a lot of great grappling wisdom he could be sharing because it doesn't fit the pre-formed narrative he's desperately clinging to. I just watched a fight earlier today where he was screaming about how deep an RNC was, when it was very visibly across the front of the dude's chin. I would have appreciated an explanation of how the dude was able to keep his chin under the attacker's forearm but Joe was fully committed to selling a lie.

I rewatched the WEC 53 fight between Pettis and Bendo last night, first time I've watched it in years. Had a lot more fun grappling than I remembered.
