Have you ever watch the UFC ?
I watch probably every 5th fight now?  
back in the day, I grew up on the early matches.  Don Frye, tank Abott... when the sumo fought the little guy, and sumo got his nose broken in ten seconds lol... I think there would be 8 competitors and they'd fight 3 times every night?   Shit was the wild west back then.  I would get the videos from akron public library.  those were awesome.  I think they fought with actual fists?
the new stuff... eh, so polished, made for tv, weak.
