    It's way harder to develop a connection with one guy rather than a team, city, or organization.

    The way Pac went down reminded me of this:

    This, btw, is still the most brutal ending to a fight I've seen.

    I love the UFC. I've ordered a couple of PPV's, but I usually go to a sports bar to watch those.

    MMA for kids is something I can't support, however. Too brutal.

    That's why I'll already miss Fedor Emelianenko. He was the Michael Jordan of MMA (and unfortunately, watching him fight in his mid-30's was also like watching Jordan play for the Wizards).

    However, Fedor's prime was before UFC really had legs, so the US audience never had the same exposure to him that they have to guys like Lesnar, dos Santos, or Silva.

    I watched the first UFC PPVs from 93-96 with my dad, then I got back into it around 2002 until 2009. I probably watched every PPV during those years. Matt Hughes, BJ Penn, Tito Ortiz, Shamrock, Couture, etc, etc. I remember when Gracie came back and lost to Hughes. I saw the rise of St. Pierre and Silva. Good shit.
