DEADLOCK Sumn Gonna Happen #42
The start of a revolution!
On this month's edition of SGH, we take a look back at the very first UFC event. In the early days of UFC, it is unbelievable that this shit wasn't illegal. Tournament style, no weight classes. The only rules were no biting, and no eye gouging. Everything else is somehow allowed, which makes for one of the most insane nights of fighting we've ever laid our eyes on.

It said it’s been taken down?
getting this on ALL the videos. using firefox
For some reason it's a Thanksgiving tradition for me to rewatch this
KILL ME...or maybe not, brother. Maybe somebody already did, dude.
jim brown just randomly saying "kill me" at the end is the funniest fucking thing ever holy fuck
🤤🤤🤤
I actually do taekwondo so I got excited when I saw the taekwondo guy...and then I saw he was up against Shamrock and knew it was fucking over lmao Also apparently Patrick Smith was a kid diddler...fuck that guy
RIP Teila Tuli ❤️ you were a beast for trying to push that neo-Nazi's shit in and getting your teeth knocked out.
I've seen this like 4 times now and every time I forget about Jim Brown yelling "KILL ME" at the end, and I just die laughing
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LJCAYVhMMGI Cool roundtable UFC did with a lot of the competitors in this PPV.
Not gonna comment on Gordeu's character otherwise But I will say, from the research I did, it seems like he is Not in fact a nazi. The salute he does is apparently the traditional salute used in savate, which just unfortunately rlly looks like the other thing. And hes actually part jewish!
And the alleged "swastika" tattoo is actually a buddhist tattoo he got during his time in Japan
these early shows were so wild, but it was crazy how much of a farce they were. the gracies basically set them up. A lot of the fighters complained that the padding on the mat made it hard to throw effective kicks.
bro that royce guy stinks
I wasn’t initially interested in watching this but I’m half an hour in and good lord my sides legitimately hurt from laughing so much. This rules.
If I remember correctly, the reason the kickboxer, Frazier, went to the hospital wasnt from the fight, but the entrance. They had dry ice to create the fog and he inhaled it.
Oh god, I can't imagine that helped in the fight
Helio Gracie was 80 years old then
Pulse saying "The racist can't win" when Royce Gracie won the fuckin tournament is insane lmao
This was insane lol. Royce Gracie didn't break a sweat.
Good shit guys, been such a long fuckin time since I've seen this show! I bought the first two or three UFC shows in a VHS box set at Media Play in 1997.
Kevin Rosier had big GUNTHER vibes in that first fight lmao
More of this pls but also but with how much it gets mentioned I’d love to see y’all do some PRIDE if you haven’t already
Hey I lowkey want the to SGH UFC 100 lol
also fuck brian kilmeade, future Fox News host.
fun fact: teila tuli later became an actor also starred in hawaii five-0 reboot.
8 shots to the back of the head followed by a head stomp is my new finish.
Tank once threw someone outside the cage
in retrospect, "I THINK I'M JIMMY RAVE" when shamrock sinks in a heel hook is insane
More UFC please. This was fantastic
KILL ME
If they want to watch another old school UFC I recommend UFC 8. Ken vs Kimo in the main and Don Frye is in the tournament.
Please god let them get to UFC 4, the joe son match will be amazing to hear their reactions
PRIDE NEVER DIIIIEEEEEEE
WE def need more UFC events in SGH or even fights in Watch This. SGH is always top tier, but this is the hardest I've laughed in a good long while
This is literally Street Fighter lmfao
Gerard Gordeau is famous for being a huge piece of shit. He intentionally gouged Yuki Nakai's eye so bad that it permanently blinded him. Gerard outweighed Nakai by almost 100 pounds if I remember correctly. Nakai still won the fight cuz he's a beast
and Nakai still does grappling with the one eye. truly a guy bein a dude
Patrick smith was charged with rape of a minor in 1999 fuck him
Y’all know the first guy shamrock beat was a pedo? Look it up, fuck that guy
Keep this shit going boys, more of this please.
UFC tier PLEASE
Art Jimmerson is a hell of a name.
I was rooting for Art Jimmerson until I saw that corny “one glove” bullshit
Old-school UFC is best UFC so stoked yall are watching this
This was unbelievable. Please just do all the UFCs until they start regulating
I bet this ref has no training
I'm not an MMA guy, but I love the boys so I probably won't actually be watching this, but it'll definitely be background noise while I'm playing Spider Man 2 because I'm sure this will be hilarious
It was the best SGH theyve ever done
360 n*zi salute first match in is CRAZY
streets need that UFC 2
Only thing crazier than this was ufc 2 where they unbanned nut shots
I would legitimately pay MORE on the Patreon if it meant UFC watchalongs seperate from SGH. This is fucking insane, loved every second of it.
Kill me
That 360 no scope Sieg Heil was insane
I looked up that Gerard Gordeu guy, he legit has a swastika tattooed on his arm, wtf
Hell yeah we need more early UFC and throw some Pride in there too.
This is no joke one of, if not my favorite, SGH to date. This is fucking top tier
Best SGH to date, I need MOAR of this, GIVE ME WHAT I WANT But legit, if y’all are picking and choosing UFCs to watch, either do UFC 2, or skip to UFC 4, Dan Severn’s debut
now we gotta do UFC 2 no way cant follow that up
I rented this shit from Hollywood Video, the memories have come flooding back. We need more early UFC SGH's.
I miss Hollywood Video 🥲
the jab leg kick combo being used in ufc 1 is like if the mongolians had hellfire missles
Kill me Jim Brown style
its awesome how many fights here are the martial arts equivalent of hydrogen bomb vs. coughing baby
Man, they missed the boat not having Gracie do a Hulk Hogan promo about "That stinky german dude, Gerard" and doing a USA promo. Great SGH, boys!!!
K I L L M E
Gerard does the salute before the second round but it's mainly off camera until they cut back to him and you see him doing it. He would go on to purposely permanently blind an opponent of his during their fight against eachother, show no remorse for it and iirc lost that fight.
KILL ME
I don’t think anyone brought this up and haven’t read the comments but before UFC 1, the sumo from the first fight was in NJPW in a stable with Tatsumi Fujinami. He also lost 4 teeth because of the kick.
This was the greatest SGH ever via knockout.
This was fuckin crazy. Please more MMA stuff.
Dude, please keep this up. I've seen all the early UFC and you guys will absolutely love it if you were into this. There's A LOT of crazy shit, like a dude stuck in a crucifix pin position getting elbowed to death in the head.
dude, how did i never know that Royce was pronounced with an H sound. i feel like a fraudulent UFC fan
It's very much a Brazilian Portuguese thing. Both the (E) & (I) specially when next to an (R) make it silent.
3 matches in and I agree. UFC every week.
Yo Extra UFC SGH every week please.
KILL ME
KILL ME
that was absolutely insane haha homie from forgetting sarah marshall was GOUSHING
I know the phrase "these crackas are crazy" went through the mind of Jim Brown while watching this
bro did a four post massacre of Nazi salutes, that's fuckin crazy lmao
a like $12 UFC tier would go crazy, this shit was fun would love to see more
if there’s one thing i didn’t expect it was seeing a fucking nazi salute 10 minutes in
Dude, that was insane. I need more of this lol. Y’all need to watch all the early UFC’s before the rules were added because this was unhinged.
This shit was fucking crazy. It’s great that Shamrock finally becomes The Guy a few shows after this, I know that it is a real combat sport (or is it………..) but goddamn the fucking Gracies had too much of a hold on it
i need to see you guys watch PRIDE shows now
i've seen this show before but seeing it with the boys hooting and screeching made me realize how barbaric this shit was. great content
Gerard "4 Salutes" Gordeau
UFC and PRIDE Retro would be uber based.
I would like to see some peak PRIDE or Pancrase in the mix here since the floodgates are open for MMA events now.
This was Great. I hope you guys do another 1 of these someday
first time ever watching ufc and what the fuck
Kill Me
Definitely should keep going. The first bunch of shows until they got rules were fucking crazy. Liddell and Rampage were peak UFC time, but they have nothing on punching a man in the dick and balls so many times that he taps out.
Honestly I wouldn't mind if SGH was just watching old UFC PPVs, maybe also get some classic PRIDE in there too, those early PRIDE cards, with many more Gracies, Kimo Leopoldo, Kazushi Sakuraba, Nobuhiko Takada (in some worked fights, some shoot)
holy shit, didn't see this coming! Gonna be so much fun
Not so fun fact about the racist gerad guy, dude has a swastika on his arm and once purposefully eye gouged an opponent in '95, leaving them blinded in the right eye
Fun fact around Ken Shamrock: He actually wrestled before becoming a MMA fighter, wrestling under the name Vince Torelli. He was also not allowed to wear wrestling boots and maintains that he'd have won the tournament if he was allowed to.
There's always something special when the boys watch some MMA
For Gerard Gordeau from Wikipedia: In an unrelated matter, Gordeau's debut caused a minor controversy because he appeared to do a Roman salute before the match, gaining him accusations of being a neo-nazi, but it was explained that he was actually doing the traditional savate salute. In fact, Gordeau had a Jewish ethnic background through his father, a Jewish man from France. His grandfather was also shot at the Amersfoort concentration camp for being part of the Dutch resistance
Why’d he have a swastika tattoo?
I've heard legends about this show, it's time to finally experience it
Dude as soon as I saw Kevin's crazy Ishii stance I knew he was gonna be awesome. He mauled that poor dude. The headstomps at the end blow my mind. I know he went for your eyes but holy shit.
This is awesome. What a crazy show.
this rules! the boys should do more UFC SGH
Would love to see them jump forward and do UFC 100
Time to watch Royce Gracie punk out the whole ufc
PRIDE NEVER DIE
Ohhhh here it goes
throwing this shit on as soon at 294 is over
Teila Tuli is an actor
This show is a fucking all timer. The commentator burping out the name of the building is goated
YEAH
JIMMERSON
YESSSS BOYS I WAS LITERALLY COUNTING DOWN THE DAYS FOR THIS
Time to watch someone die!!!
I hope my kickboxing hero Patrick Smith goes far in this tournament
The pedophile? Lmaoo he touched a 14 year oldie
I THINK IM ART JIMMERSON
OH MYYYY
Bring me back to Spike TV days with Mike Goldberg
The need for the DPW superfight division intensifies.
S-GEEEEE-HAITCHHH
ITS MY FIRST SGH UPLOAD DAY LETS GOOOOOO
DPW DPW DPW
