UFC 50 - Decent Event but I consider it a rental
UFC 50: The War of '04
Although the main event was supposed to be a rivalry match between Tito Ortiz and Guy Mezger, Mezger was forced to pull out due to a medical problem. Enter Canadian Patrick Cote, a young Canadian fighter making his UFC debut. Imagine thinking you are the first undercard fighter of the night, and then being thrown into the spotlight, and fighting for the title in the Main Event.
Two fighters stepped up and fought opponents on very short notice. Travis Lutter was the second fighter, Lutter filled Cotes spot against Marvin Eastman.
The fight card is as follows:
Light Heavyweight Championship Bout
Tito Ortiz vs. Patrick Côté
(Props to Cote for stepping up)
Middleweight Bout
Rich Franklin vs. Jorge Rivera
WW Championship Bout
Matt Hughes vs George St.Pierre
(For the Vacant WW Title)
Undercard
Light Heavyweight Bout
Travis Lutter vs. Marvin Eastman
(Props to Lutter for also stepping up)
Middleweight Bout
Ivan Salaverry vs. Tony Fryklund
Middleweight Bout
Evan Tanner vs. Robbie Lawler
Welterweight Bout
Frank Trigg vs. Renato Verissimo
Final Verdict:
3/5
Rent or Buy: Unless you collect UFC DVDs, this event is a one viewing needed DVD. Although the Cote/Ortiz fight was decent, the fact that no rivalry was settled makes this a 3/5. However, the Hughes/St. Pierre fight was great. If I could, I'd give this DVD a 3.5/5.
