Just like the title says, came across it on youtube. Couple I haven't seen.
My personal favourite is Choke. Rickson had a unique way of training/breathing.
Any others anyone recommend??

 
A few I haven't seen on there. Id add the following to it if anyone wants to check these out.

Renzo Gracie - Legacy
Ultimate Gracie
The Hurt Business
Conor McGregor - Notorious
The Striking Truth (GSP and David Lousieau Documentary)
Fedor - The Baddest Man On The Planet
BJ Penn - 90 Days
Alastair Overeem - Taking Over
Arte Suave - Jiu Jitsu Lifestyle Volume 1
 
Mos def seen Fedors. Love it. Haven't seen 90 days so will check it out. Sometimes you need reminding on how good some of the old legends are.

the guys voice in the Thread start is really Tommy Toe Hold? didnt know he did shit outside tommy toe hold show
 
Nice, there are still a few I have to watch.

I'll also recommend Pride Decade.
 
Miami Hustle featuring Jorge Masvidal is really good.

And Tales of the grind featuring Masvidal too.
 
I'm surprised no one has mentioned Fightville yet.

It's about a regional Louisiana fight org and the local fighters from Tim Credeur's gym trying to make it in the big show. One of which is a young Dustin Poirier. That doco made me a fan of his, as he had just broken into the WEC at the end of filming and he had just made his UFC debut when I watched it. We all know where he's at now.

It's a great insight into the trials and tribulations of making a local show happen, and of those who made it and those who didn't.
 
The Smashing Machine is by far the best one. Talk about sad and bleak... And then knowing where his career went after the end of that doc, it makes it all that much more sad.

Still, great film.
