  • In the beginning was great cause no one was a well rounded fighter. So you can expect more actions. Modern MMA now is kinda boring cause every one is so well trained.

  • with a record of 250-0 haha :D

  • Hated, hated, HATED Royce Gracie in the early days! He messed up everything a steady diet of Bruce Lee, Chuck Norris and Van Damme movies had taught me about fighting!!!! Now this is my nostalgia......

  • Welcome to macniiiiiiiickelss arena

  • Man, they had no idea what they were in for. I miss these raw brutal fights. The first 10 or 12 UFC events were so damn good!

  • @ChaosSpider - very helpful, cheers man.

  • thx for upload

  • Gerard Gordeau is a monster!!!

  • I wonder why there where no Judokas?

  • Give Teila Tuli (the sumo in the first fight of this video) credit, he wanted to continue fighting. That was funny when Pat Smith said "I'm oblivious to all pain" and he tapped due to the pain of a heel hook hahahahahahahahahha.

  • This video delivers!

  • 1:34 The Ultimate Fighting Challenge.

  • wow!

    

  • Whats with all of the boos at gracie?

  • @ColtonsRoom people were not expecting a ground fight. They probably thought they were here to see a Van Damme kickfest. Not a down and dirty ground fight.

  • @artfan101 Yea I see what your saying. I also noticed that it looked as if the guy that was about to raise the brazilian flag was told not to. Its seems strange now but I guess people were alot more close minded back then.

  • @ColtonsRoom Yeah, I didn't notice that, but I guess MMA and Brazilian JJ has done a lot to warm the reception of foreign fighters.

  • This is back when Ken was humble. I miss that Ken.

  • this in ring announcer sucks...does he rele have to say the fighter's last name twice like we didnt hear him the first time? this makes me appreciate bruce buffer even more

  • 8:12 hahahahhahaha

  • Back in 98 my old video store had every UFC VHS that had seen a release to that point. Strange enough it was Shamrock in the WWF that brought me to the UFC. Jim Ross mentioned 'ultimate fighting' one night on Raw and I remembered seeing the vids on the shelf. Been a fan ever since.

  • been looking for this for 2 days. i love you

  • shittt this is sooo awesomeeeee !!! no gloves dats fucking awesome

  • gotta love seeing Ken Shamrock get owned by Royce Gracie, arrogance was/is/always will be Ken's biggest enemy.

  • haha what a fuckin freak show. this is horrible but the fights are awesome!. im happy its evolved from this. If anyone hasnt seen the new sport that the creator of the UFC has come up with called XARM I suggest you check it out haha

  • sumo in mma is a joke, it does not translate

  • these were the times!

  • I love how bad the refs were back then, ken is tapping and the ref is just watching him

  • man i wish it was still like this

  • Kamekona!!!

  • at the end almost all the audience had left.

  • This was when UFC was awesome...no rules.......no weight class......no gloves.............the first 3 UFC's were the best!!!!

  • Bill wallece is the biggest Pussy NOTHING on Joe

  • 1:39 xD

  • Worst referee ever

  • now i am the UFC big fan,and i wasnt born when this happened

    im 17 :)

  • bellissimoooooooooooooooo!!!!!­XD XD XD W brasilll porraaaaa

  • oh my god... i'm getting older!!!! it's already 20 years ago??????

  • this was staged and the fighters poorly chosen, BJJ do good marketing

  • @WingChunHard no, bjj is the best martial art, thats why royce beat them all

  • @RedStarBelgradefan BJJ is a strong component of a well trained, well rounded fighter. Now, take Royce's balls out of your mouth and wipe your chin.

  • @sambomuaythaijack i am not even a fan of royce

  • @RedStarBelgradefan the whole event was set up to promote BJJ, its even boring to look at because most of fighters are realy bad and just throw bad punches... the boxer was right to stop before knock out because its very bad judgment to oppose those styles, id like to see royce against ali... BJJ is good but not the best, fighters are the best and eventualy royce got his ass whoped but japaneses... in no way thoses fighters are enough good to fight royce, this was cheap set up

  • @WingChunHard and then you see this guys fighting 'kung fu masters' wich look like jerks... and then if you fight a BJJ beginer, they will tell you its unfair... whos right when claim opponent is a master..? very subjective...

  • @WingChunHard Not staged. The Gracies obviously wanted to promote their art, but I honestly believe this was the best group of fighters who could be scrounged up. Very few martial artists were willing to compete in the UFC until after the first event went through and the promoters proved they could pull it off.

    Plus, if it really was staged, why would they invite a roided-up grappling specialist in Ken Shamrock to fight in the event?

  • @ThePinkMan they certainly achieved their goal, and later show their skills with much better fighters, but still, i think some styles should not be in the same ring for different reasons, and those fights look like 'prepared brawl ' to define street fighting.. wich could be wrong for some people as we all have different taught... if you want to prepare for street fighting, better find the style wich complete yourself than listen to ufc... but it might be BJJ..!

  • @ThePinkMan the ken fight is cool, but all the others are not realy good match for royce, they are much better kickboxer, much better karate, much better wrestler... if people didnt want to get into it , theyre might be a reason like ' we dont think this define our goals and taught about martial arts..'

  • @WingChunHard Yes, but if you've read about the history of the UFC, you'd know that a number of renowned fighters were made offers to fight in the UFC but turned them down. WBA boxing champion James "Bonecrusher" Smith, for example, turned down an offer because he wanted more money. Maurice Smith turned down an offer because he wanted to learn grappling first (He eventually became UFC champ).

    I'll repeat what I wrote earlier: This was the best the UFC could do at the time.

  • @ThePinkMan yeah youre right that was the best at that time, its hard to find when you offer such a free fight, but its not right to claim you are or your style is the best, martial exchange should be done clean, with respect, UFC is a trend, we dont know the best because we dont know real war

  • @ThePinkMan I've read somewhere some fighters weren't allowed into the tournament, one of them was Gokor Chivichyan.

  • @WingChunHard what do you thik which martial art is the best if not bjj

  • @RedStarBelgradefan humanisim

  • @WingChunHard yeah try to win the ufc with that

  • 1:39 LOOOOOL

  • War Hoyce Gracie !!!

  • @RJay957 Royce

  • UFC 1 BJJ/gracie highlight reel?

  • It just seems surreal that this was damn near 20 years ago.

  • Didnt know patrick bateman was a fighter?

  • i rate royce gracie, i really do. He did alot for the sport of MMA. But what people dont know is that this tournaments was desighned for gracie to win and to prove that the smaller man is dangerous. People dont know that rouce and the organisers of this 1st ufc were very good friends. Still royce is a legend.

  • @officialDAMAGER Royce and Rorion (One of the founders of UFC) are brothers, not friends. Yes the UFC was designed to showcase the effectiveness of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, which showcases how a smaller man can use leverage to beat larger opponents but I don't understand why you hate him for it? Or is that you assume the whole event was rigged?

  • @MobyBrickFlicks no i didnt say i hate him, i said i rate him. I think the gracie family are one of the most important factors of why MMA is soo big today. i Just think its funny how it is always the case that important info is often left out, thanks for the correction tho

  • The epic first UFC, Classic. Telia tuli's teeth went flying. Gordeau even had some in his foot

  • this is real fighting royce gracie is the father of the ufc , no rules just like a real life or death street fight, now weight classes , rules , weight class, this pussies from now wouldnt last against royce in the real ufc no holds barred

  • @69elrudo Royce would be destroyed.

    I'm a HUGE fan of Royce but he isn't a mixed martial artist, he's a jiujitsu fighter.

    Fighters now have jiujitsu, kickboxing, boxing, sambo you name it.

    Royce wouldn't stand a chance

  • royce gracie is shameful. The best fighters do not light their skills for cash

  • i was there... UFC ONE...

    

  • @drgoodspd and how old are you now?

  • @Sowaigh in my 30's....

  • Those were the WORST representatives of their arts that I have seen in my whole life, with the only exception of Ken Shamrock. No wonder Gracie had a field day with the whole lot of them. I seriously think this was rigged.

  • @Tech5420 dude Gerard Gordeau was a Savate world champ and dutch karate champ for 8 consecutive years. He was 27-6 in Kickboxing. Teila Tuli was 57-27 in Sumo. Patrick Smith was 66-8 as a kickboxer. Zane Frasier was 17-2 as a kickboxer. Rosier was 66-8 with 66 ko's as a kickboxer. The reason why Royce won so easily was because everyone was a striker.

  • @JustChillzz You can give me all the numbers you want, that doesn't change the fact that these guys were a bunch of bunglers. Go watch the fight between Zane Frasier and Rosier, and tell me that wasn't just disgraceful.

  • @Tech5420 It was invented by Royces older brother Rorion Gracie...you do the math lol. Amazing talent regardless and they started something amazing. MMA

  • 1993 was a good year!

  • -the best time of UFC. with uniform,without sponsors everywhere.

  • Great show of heart by the boxer there, that submission looked like it was tearing his limbs apart and he still refused to tap.
