These look very well done. I'll have to put them in watch later. I hope they include other organizations that built nhb/mma foundations and history, not just UFC & Pride, eg: KOTC, ROTR, EliteXC, WEC, JMMA, Strikeforce, etc

He only mentions Pride and UFC but it's not really a documentary on the history of MMA per se but a documentary of how it evolved over time and how money and main stream adoption of the sport has changed it for us hardcores who pine for the ye old days...

i'm watching, but jesus christ writer/narrator guy, you majored in politics and economics. WE GET IT. stop mixing mma with depressing dumb shit you asshole.

****bonus edit. video 4, between 8.00 and 9.56, he does NOTHING but drone on about the 2008 crash. not a single mention of mma. this guy is quietly hoping to get picked up by some mainstream outlet. pretty annoying actually.

****edit two, awful. at 16.50 of vid4, he is banging on about Chael and Anderson- then changes the subject and starts talking about fucking Barak Obama. ok i have missed the point of the video, whatever it is.. weirdo. i have come this far so will watch the rest but this is stupid

and we all know exactly what that means, obviously. it may be worth noting that all of the implications unpacked themselves in my mind within 0.7 seconds.

*bonus edit, this has been a frustrating experience and i am not going to finish watching this rubbish video lol good day.

This kid does host a political podcast that basically leans towards what my wife and I consider the "dirtbag left". Not sure what that means but you know, it is what it is lol

That's the podcast. I've listened to a few minutes of an episode and I just couldn't do it.

Just watched the first two. This is far better than the propaganda in the historical sections of the UFC 25 series. Not as slickly produced, of course, but better written with a compelling frame. Best is the porn music during the section on jiujitsu.
