UFC's Ultimate 100: Greatest Fights DVD

Mamba · Nov 2, 2009

The "UFC's Ultimate 100: Greatest Fights," a collection of the MMA promotion's 100 greatest fights as decided on by a fan vote, will soon be available on DVD.

And unlike the five-part Spike TV series, which showed just clips of the 100 contests, the new DVD collection will offer all 100 fights in their entirety.

Anchor Bay Entertainment, the current distributor of UFC DVD's, today announced that the eight-DVD set will be available on Nov. 10 for a suggested retail price of $99.97.

Each set will be packaged in an individually numbered, limited-edition box set. A six-disc Blu-ray set will also be available for a suggested retail price $119.97.

"UFC's Ultimate 100: Greatest Fights" originally aired as a five-part series on Spike TV after a fan voting process determined the order of the contests. The series averaged 1.3 million viewers per episode.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, the 2005 clash between fan favorites Forrest Griffin and Stephan Bonnar on the finale of the original "The Ultimate Fighter" series landed in the top spot on the list. While not the most technical of octagon meetings, the bout – which aired live on Spike TV – is often referred to as the moment the UFC began its recent ascension to mainstream acceptance.

While the "UFC's Ultimate 100: Greatest Fights" series was widely well-received, it did not air without some criticism.

Although the list of fights spanned all 16 years of the UFC's history, some notable bouts were missing from the list of available options. For example, no bouts that featured Tito Ortiz or Frank Shamrock as winning fighters made it onto the list. That included UFC 22's title fight of Shamrock vs. Ortiz, which is arguably one of the biggest matchups not only in UFC history but also MMA history.
