DVD Reviews of UFC 102: Couture vs. NogueiraDVD Review: Legends and Portland Make For Excitement! Summary: 5 Stars
If people were to doubt this event, then I'd advise them to think again. Yep, Minotauro Nogueira fell short against Frank Mir, WITH a staph infection, but he's still Main Event material. And yes, Randy Couture got whooped by Brock Lesnar. He's still a legend, and he still put a cut or two on Brock's face before it was all said and done. Now these two legends meet for a 3 round war. Couture has held the UFC belt in Heavyweight and Light Heavyweight divisions. Nogueira has held the belt in the UFC and Pride. I was looking forward to this Main Event, not realizing what a war it would be.
Keith Jardine and Thiago Silva, two sluggers. Both coming off of disappointing losses. Jardine fought one of his greatest losses in UFC 96, coming up short against Rampage Jackson. Thiago Silva experienced not only his first loss, but his first loss by KO against Lyoto Machida in UFC 94. Who's tougher? Who has it in them to make that next step?
A Portland, Oregon event, that's UFC 102. 2 DVD's, with 11 fights total. I will list those 11 fights below.
Disk 1: Preliminary Card
Marcus Aurelio vs. Evan Dunham: This may have been Aurelio's last chance to stay in the organization. Evan Dunham is from Eugene, Oregon, and made his debut by shutting up Per Eklund in UFC 95. This is a great scrap, and goes to a split decision.
Nick Catone vs. Mark Munoz: Both of these guys are coming off of losses. Catone lost to Tim Credeur, and Matt Hamill showed Munoz what a head kick is! These guys fought well, and this went to a split decision as well.
Tim Hague vs. Todd Duffee: This is a 7 second KO, UFC record!
Justin McCully vs. Mike Russow: Both guys looking for the finish, preferably the submission, but one guy dominates the whole fight. This wasn't the most exciting, and one guy couldn't see straight, but a unanimous decision was awarded for the dominating performance.
Gabriel Gonzaga vs. Chris Tuchscherer: This 1st round TKO could be considered controversial. A vicious kick to the cup, and the man still wants to continue fighting. That's one tough dude. But the winner got the TKO anyway in the 1st round.
Ed Herman vs. Aaron Simpson. TUF 3 runner-up Short Fuse, out of Portland Oregon, taking on a no nonsense fighter in the A-Train. A rough injury decides a quick injury TKO in the 2nd, but a great fight for both guys!
Disk 2: Main Card
Brandon Vera vs. Krzysztof Soszynski: The Polish Experiment is looking forward to this opportunity, while Vera wants to let him know THE TRUTH about taking this fight. Not too bad, and goes to a unanimous decision.
Nate Marquardt vs. Demian Maia: I didn't think this one would end so quickly, but it did, KO in 21 seconds!
Chris Leben vs. Jake Rosholt: Leben is back! And he wants to dominate in front of his home crowd. But, Jake Rosholt wants to win as well. And a submission is just what happens in the 3rd round.
Keith Jardine vs. Thiago Silva. Well, sometimes it doesn't take much, and somebody gets the KO in the 1st round.
Randy Couture vs. Antonio Rodrigo "Minotauro" Nogueira: What a fight! This was a great fight that went to a unanimous decision, and proved that both fighters deserved being in this Main Event!
I enjoyed this. Some may have expected more. But you get 11 fights, and some great special features on both DVDs. ENJOY!
