Anyone else hitting 10 years of MMA this year?

[GrantB13]

I've been watching MMA for a decade now. Not as long as some here, but I don't think my parents would've shown toddler-me UFC 1 if they were the type to watch it in the first place. Starting to feel like I understand the intricacies of the game that first year freshman still don't even know the names of. Kind of. Who else joins me for 10 years in 2020?

Loved it ever since....

I didnt' follow the sport as closely as I do now, but I started watching events and pirated fights in 02-03.

Haven't missed an event altogether since Frankie vs. Benson 1, my first live PPV. Just passed 8 years and still as balls deep as I've ever been

Been following it since the ultimate fighter season 1. I still have the finale recorded on a VHS tape in my room covered with cat litter. I went from not knowing wth a triangle choke was to becoming proficient with triangle chokes. How times change.

thanks for making us feel old ts.
i had to look back to figure it out.
dont remember which was the 1st card i watched.
but i do remember @Joshuaace giving a bunch of old pride tapes he gave me when i 1st started watching ufc.
his words and i quote. "oh ufc, yeah check this shit out. pride makes ufc guys look like pussies" handed me a giant box of his personal porn
even had a few tyson fights on the recorded tapes. "many of faps"
i was about 15 when he gave me that box. safe to say i have been a pretty hardcore fan for about 15 years.
also safe to say my pops is a pretty legit old dude.
thanks partner.
