On UFC quick thoughts - Ultimate Fighting Championship

 As a person that enjoyed professional wrestling WWF, WCW/nWo and ECW during the 90's and early 00's (as well as still keeping an ear and eye on the scene) I became aware of "the real thing". As a teen and younger adult however real life combat violence wasn't entertaining to me.

In 2008 I played the demo of the UFC game on XBOX 360 and loved it. It was like the Wrestling games I loved mixed with the Street Fighter/Mortal Kombat/KI/Tekken/etc that I loved to play. I went out and bought a console and that game because of how much I enjoyed playing it...and I got good at it if I do say so myself...I haven't changed much as this year I bought a modern X series console along with the current offering #5.

As for "the real real thing" I grew to love of hate the fighters that were in the game. I caught McGregor fever earlier on, I loved the Diaz hype and I knew the focused guy whoms name I can't spell without looking up would defeat him. 

Austin Bashi is the man I am watching now.
