Saw iceman knockout Tito around 06 and got hooked. I lose touch a bit during football season but once football ends I'm all over it. I don't post much in the threads on here but I have a pretty solid knowledge of it and have seen a ton of fights

Used to love watching classic pride fights when getting home from high school

Like most I think the over saturation is watering it down a bit. It used to be 1 huge ppv event a month and maybe a couple "fight for the troops" mixed in. Now there's so many cards I even forget sometimes. Also like most it's tough to see the greats get old...shogun, cro cop, wanderlei, rampage, couture, iceman etc...(it absolutely killed me when chuck started getting knocked out easily, that was my guy) however with the resurgence of heroes and villains (Conor, sage and others) it gives even casual fans a reason to watch which is good

I'm also a fan of the little guys so I loved when they absorbed WEC

I started watching when it first came about in the 90's. They would do tournament style where guys had to fight their way through multiple bouts to get to the final. I'm pretty sure there weren't weight classes at the beginning either which made it interesting. That was when Royce Gracie was beating everyone.

I've been watching on and off ever since but I've started getting more into it lately.
