Not sure if this is a duplicate thread, but this show just started on CNBC.

Talking about the history of the sport right now with Dana White...

It's an hour long, so there's 55 minutes left.

Just an update, it's really recent, because they're discussing Couture leaving...

Sorry to keep spamming my own thread. The show is called 'Ultimate Fighting: From Bloodsport to Big Time'

I just watched a very distasteful bit where the guy from CNBC was in Randy Couture's gym being a total asshole to him, asking him things like "So by leaving, you're saying the UFC needs you more than you need the UFC"

Randy pretty much ignored the guy.

*edit*

There's torrents up for it, but only with a couple seeds.

Yeah that documentary is pretty old ..and pretty one sided in the views on there ..i think the tapout guys represented the sport well

Hopefully they talked to the smart one. Skyscrape:headscratch:

I liked Dana in the interview. He came off like he knows what he is doing.

They gave UFC the lowblow at the end, showing HBO's Lampley after the Mayweather/De La Hoya fight saying how MMA fighters will never have anywhere near the skill level those two fighters showed in that fight, then Bernard Hopkins (I think) calling MMA street/bar fighting, and not letting Dana defend MMA from the obvious ignorance and bias those two showed. And then there was the host's bias. The NFL is violent. Boxing is violent. Working for NBC, he is in no position to pass judgment on MMA's violence. You don't hear about death, paralysis, and/or brain damage in MMA like you do in NFL and boxing.
