    The show was pretty good. It seems that they wanted to shed some positive light on mma but from a 3rd party stance.

    Just got to watch it on tivo. I cannot believe the positive press MMA is getting these days. This was well made and definately educated many about MMA.

    It sucks for Enoch getting the fight stopped. I hate whenever fights get stopped by cuts, and I hate fighters who bank on fights getting stopped by cuts (Kenny Florian).

    Cuts are part of MMA/Boxing, it happens & it is a smart MMA fighter who can use their elbows & such to their advantage.

    IMO, if a fighter can use elbows efficiently to create cuts then I don't see anything wrong with that. It's not necessarily my favorite way to see a fight end but it's part of the game.

    Yep, another potentially good fight cut short by a weak elbow...

    I hear ya.
    Hilarious how some people still think fights are supposed to go the entire length and be decided by judges.
    Guess the wwe and whatever wrestling league groupies are used to see elbows that don't damage the opponent. Yea wwe!!

    I guess no fighter ever should end the fight by KO/TKO or whatever.

    I liked the 1st episode better. The husband was really annoying...

    Thoughts on Urijah Faber's hot sports opinion that "American fans suck!"???

    He has a point I think...not that ALL American fans suck but the fans at the venues suck in general. It's still a drunken redneck-like environment for the most part...

    MSNBC's Warrior NationSECAUCUS , N.J. - January 31, 2007 -

    On February 10th, the 4th installment of MSNBC's "Warrior Nation," takes viewers behind the scenes at UFC 66, the legendary O ORTIZ v CHUCK LIDDELL match up. Ortiz and Liddell, long time rivals, and UFC champions, granted MSNBC exclusive access during the lead up to this epic event. Viewers will see the fighters at home, while they are training, and mentally preparing for the fight of a lifetime. Warrior Nation followed the fighters for the month leading up to the fight and gained inside access at their homes, and in the gym.

    The show follows the two from San Luis Obispo and Big Bear, CA as they head to the fight at MGM Grand, in Las Vegas . Dana White, the president of the UFC, is also prominently featured. Over 1 million Americans subscribed to watch UFC 66 on Pay Per View.

    As the reigning UFC World Light Heavyweight Champion, Chuck 'The Iceman' Liddell is 37-years-old and has dominated the UFC light heavyweight division, knocking out his last six opponents. The challenger is #1 contender 'Huntington Beach Bad Boy' o Ortiz. At 32-years-old, o lost his championship belt to Randy Couture in 2003 and was defeated by Liddell in 2004.

    But he has won five consecutive fights and wants to regain his championship le by defeating Liddell. Episode Four also features up-and-coming fighters, Steve Byrnes and Logan Clark, who earned their shot to debut for the UFC at UFC Fight Night at Miramar Marine Corps Air Station. A former marine Sergeant stationed in Iraq , Steve Byrnes currently trains in Hawaii and works at a local nightclub. Steve's opponent is Logan Clark, a 21-year-old college student from Minnesota.

    Both fighters are undefeated and feel the pressures of fighting in the UFC for the first time.

    Yea, I've been waiting for the last episode...it got bumped back a week due to bad ratings (that's what they get for running 2 episodes about women's MMA for the most part!!)...

    I'll be watching the last one though...
