So stoked man. I have had a really long day at work (still going) yet I am so happy I get to watch this tonight. You're awesome and made my day.

Bravo! Just finished watching the whole thing and it was entertaining and informative. Wanderlei is one scary looking dude with a beard. Don Frye part was awesome and had no idea Takayama was paralyzed, heartwarming moment when Frye visited him. I enjoyed watching Dana enter Chuck Liddel....into pride part. I appreciate the time you put into this and can't wait for part III. In the meantime enjoy your fame and money! Thank you!

Had me actually laughing my ass off and I learned a lot too. Christ when Frye went to the hospital I had tears. Other parts I had goosebumps. I’ll say it again- you have a gift sir. Thanks.

Absolutely fucking brilliant. A complete rollercoaster of all emotions. Thank you for creating everything that you have, I truly feel that your content is the pinnacle of MMA history documentation.

You killed it once again! My 8 year old loved all the video game, Simpson and japanimation references. He didn’t quite comprehend the Yakuza references though! Looking forward to the next one.

🤣 I had to explain to him what steroids are. We compared the physiques of Don Frye and Sakuraba.

Billy Blatts renditions, 2nd hand CTE, bipedal roid factories, honorary mustaches, cats barking, yakuza fat stacks and Gs in Gis I’d expect nothing less form the Axe murderer’s era. As globally savage as it was excess in global swole….pure Pride. You smashed it Napoleon, the nuggets you keep finding in that deep dark rabbit hole. Can’t wait for the next one…..
