Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) use the slogan 'As Real As It Gets' and this DVD showcases why they chose that as their tag line - this is Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) action personified!

Over the years UFC has changed a little bit and they do have some rules now - believe it or not! However, back in the beginning there were no rules - at UFC 4 (16th Dec 1994) you'll see Keith Hackney repeatedly punch Joe Son in the groin, but I digress - that's another story for another time!

This DVD release features 23 of the most devastating knockouts in UFC history. These guys will use anything to knock their opponent out - punches, kicks and even elbows - this is not for the faint of heart but IS for those like their fighting brutal and barbaric.

One of the least attractive parts of MMA has always been the amount of time some fighters spend on the mat. While this is all part of the way MMA works itv can be a bit boring - this is where Ultimate Knockouts excels. It cuts out anything that may be construed as boring and goes straight to the bit we all want to see - the knockout!

One huge benefit of this DVD is the repeat viewing factor. How many times have you spent money on a DVD only to watch it once and then put it away to gather dust until you take it down to MVC along with another 15 'one time watch' DVDs to swap them for one and a half DVDs from the chart? Me too! I must have watched Ultimate Knockouts at least 10 times and if anything that's an under exaggeration! Every time I watch this DVD I marvel at what these guys through and some of the knockouts still shock me - however, it's one of the safest sports around when you look into injuries from MMA.

I don't want to spoil it for you but I'll give you my top 5 knockouts from this DVD, see if you agree:

5. Tank Abbott v Steve Nelmark
4. Carlos Newton v Matt Hughes
3. Gary Goodridge v Paul Herrera
2. BJ Penn v Caol Uno
1. Vitor Belfort v Vanderlei Silva

That's 5 very different fights that all result in the same thing - KNOCKOUT!

Extras Features:

This is a bit of a letdown - after watching some awesome MMA action you're in the mood to see more and you'd hope for a few hidden knockouts in the DVD extras - sorry, none here. It's interview after interview, which may be interesting to some, but when you're in the mood for action it's a bit of a letdown. Still, at least they made some effort; there are still a criminally large amount of DVDs on the market with no extras.

For more information on UFC I can recommend the following sites:
