Extreme Fighting 1 was just next f’n level sh*t!!!! I recorded the PPV on VHS and literally watched it sooooooo many times that by around 2002 the damn tape was so worn out, it squealed, flickered and was almost unwatchable lol. Absolute gold it was…. these Perretti interviews are like a time machine, taking me right back to that magical era. Thanks fellas, and absolutely love ya John! -John King (aka: your Godson 😉)

Yes! Classic Extreme fighting! Perretti!

Boys...... (Sean here, the mma/nhb fanatic), you've done it again........ Out done yourselves........., this will be epic once again, I'm shaking after reading the time stamps.....creator of mma, Mr. Perretti and his amazing Russian fighter. Can't wait to listen!!!

John Perretti is a legand.

Also keep in mind, Dave Bontempo was ESPN’s Boxing commentator back in the ‘90s. He was a big name.

🔥

I remember renting these tapes back in the day. All 4 events. I remember seeing the arrests by the cops as well

Mr T was part of the PPV

When you think it can’t get any better !

I'm fairly sure I used to see Keating at lots of local events in Georgia. Also, Mike Carlson, Mullinax.

I love this podcast. Every single episode is fucking killer. I used to love going to my local video store and renting Extreme Fighting. You guys also mentioned World Combat Championship, which was an interesting event. As a 1st Degree BJJ Black Belt who LOVES every grappling style, it would be a HUGE honor to train with Igor or John P. I would have loved to see Igor vs Rickson.....or Igor vs Sakuraba. You guys are killing it!!!!!!

Thanks!

I never realized UFC 7 was promoted as a (mixed martial arts) event. I thought they didn't start using said term until 1998.

So good 👍🏻

Anyone remember the “Jerry Springer Episode” with John Perretti, John Lewis, Igor Zinoviev and Ralph Gracie?

No filler (crypto ads) all killer.

2:10:05 its nice to hear from former law enforcement that they wrte open to this..i did a few years ago on n off its a hame changer

When Igor brought up the guy lying and telling everyone at the bathhouse that he trained Igor. I was secretly praying it was that handsome Bruce mention in his first interview 😂😅

John looks like Jesse Ventura and Devon Larratt had a kid. 😆

Ok so all due respect their were no rules! Head butts were aloud, how do you think I finished Tommy Glanville an hour earlier that night. Hell even holding the cage was legal. It was the stoppage and restart of the fight which was wrong. It was said in the rules meeting if the fight is stopped for a cut the fight is over the guy with the cut looses. P.S If you look closely I protest as the ref came over to me and says we are restarting the fight, I clearly go no it's over. Then they don't start me in the position I was in when they stopped the fight. I did train for those fights but understand I could have stayed all night on top and never gassed. Wrestlers are good at that. I got tired when they took that break and everything caught up to me. I had since then been in 30 minute fights. IVC 5.

the fraud, was it Skip Hall?
