Did anyone watch this count down on SPIKE TV? It was on before the fight. What a bunch of garbage!

Two of the best fights in UFC History didn't even make the count down

Gary Goodrich vs Paul Herrera

http://www.metacafe.com/watch/347902/pride_gary_goodridge_vs_paul_herrera_k_1_mix_fight/



Don Fry vs a 400 lbs Thomas Ramirez (Still UFC's fastest Knock out)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y_jcSe4nCXk

Funny note about Ramirez boasted to be the Purto Rican bare knucles champion with close to 500 knock outs....ouch


Anyway, there's a bunch of crap wrong with this count down! Does anyone really think that ALL three fights of Lidell vs Ortiz or Couture belonged in the count down....Argghhh!!!

I didn't catch much, but I was wondering, did the Taktorov/Abbot UFC championship fight make the list?

No, the only Abbot fight was the one he lost against Fry.
I sort of thought the Abbot vs Worshing might have made it since its the only fight I've seen where the Winner "Tried" to throw the loser out of the Ring. Or maybe the fight where Abbot decked the Spectator walking into the Ring...lol

Man, talk about the early days. I appreciated those days, because it truly was mixed martial arts.

These days it almost all looks the same, like pit fighting.

Back in the early days, you could have a guy like Pat Smith fighting a guy like Anthony Macias.

Yeah, I loved them too...
That's when we all learned what works against what and how they over came dominate styles (such as Fry & Severums developing Ground & Pound to combat Gracie Ju Jit Su dominance) or Maurice Smith effective use of Leg Kicks to stop Coleman's wrestling dominance.

you may dissagree with the countdown, but it was fan voted. so you can say it was some stupid guys in the office that dont know what they are talkin about or that its soo wrong. the best fight was the voted number one and that was forrest and bonner. i didnt agre with where some of the fights fit. or that some were in there yes but you cant complain about it that bad, the fans voted it, if you didnt like it when they were previewing it you should of voted yourself.


and to deal with tito, even if he is someone you dont like he was a good fighter and the matches between them were good. and maybe yeah liddel made them a little bigger than what they would of been. but you cant knock the fights just cause you dont like him. i for one hate the guy and think is a ****ing tool. but doesnt mean the fights were not good

FarmBoy, People voted on what they voted because it's what they saw! Most people have only been watching the UFC since somewhere in the 80's (meaning UFC 80, 81, 82, etc..: Not 1980). I'd venture to say that 75% of the people that voted only saw a handful of the 1st 50 UFC's.

Oh and msmyka, thanks for having some taste: I can't believe people like lonetar that got off on watching Tito run away from Lidell as long as he could.
