UFC Beyond the Glory.

An amazing documentary from 2005. They've never put it on Fight Pass. Doubt you'd find it online now.

After discovering PRIDE,i'd see every month Sam Goody would stock a new event on DVD at their shops,and like clockwork i was always looking for them and would buy them on sight. What was fuckin stupid was the early UFC dvds were such trash. They didnt even list the entire card on the back of the DVD (PRIDE always did) and they would have this long unskippable intro before you could watch the fights,and sometimes you couldnt even skip rounds. Id still buy them all wether I knew who was fighting on it or not,cos I was that into it.

Anyway,after awhile PRIDE got more popular,and they put out even better quality 2dvd set content,but you would have to wait a YEAR after the event for it to come out on DVD,so id VHS all the current events until they came out on DVD.

So when you were a diehard in this fashion,dying to get your hands on MMA any fuckin way you could,when people today say they wish their was less MMA,just BAM hit em right in the fuckin mouth.

I love the information about how you had to collect stuff. I had the same issues.

Back then I really looked forward to UFC, Pride & had to wait so long for the events. Less fighters on the rosters, so we had to hang out. I'm with you bro. People bitch about too much (saturated) MMA & when we have a break, they say there's not enough. If they grew up & collected in the early days, they'd have a greater appreciation today.

Here's something you all might like to see since this may have only been released here?

A mate wanted to buy a UFC Undisputed game & they sold (here in Australia) a metal box set with the tin, UFC 110 and the game as well. We both put in. He got the game & I got the tin box & UFC 110. I now store UFC 100 & 110 in the metal box. The bottom picture is the tin opened up, so that you can see both sides. Had to by UFC 100 from USA

Here's my k-1,l Heros, Dream collection:

 

[Bluesbreaker]

I've never heard of Astra over the years, so that would be very rare indeed. Can't even find much about it. You picked a winner my friend, good work. You got a pick of the cover at all?

Aoki would be a great instructional, since he was a submission specialist from what I've seen of him.

It's in storage, so had to search Google like crazy for the cover. It may have been this, but I don't remember if this is the exact one.

I tried to find the Aoki DVD cover too, but none of them rang any bells.

 

[JakePaulMMA]

All the Super Brawl events, autographed (by me). Willing to sell.

 

[KID Yamamoto]

I will happily buy K-1 Max DVD'd from any of you lol. Hell if you have good quality of the events and fights that would be fine too! Much love

 

[Bos Docken]

Anyone have the Mario Sperry instructional???? That was sheer greatness.

They were indeed great, and full of technique that is surprisingly still relevant in MMA.

I don't have the DVDs, but I have the content on compressed MPEG files. Remember those?

I thought the videos were out-of-print, but apparently World Martial Arts remastered and re-released the whole set.

@Van Daz finally came around to making a pic. I made it in a bit of a rush, so didn't neatly straighten out the stacks.

Left are a couple of early It's Showtime dvds, center are a bunch of Too Hot To Handle dvds, and right are early K-1 dvds (probably not very rare)
