By Robert Stuff “IR a i ID IE IN” (Florida, USA) -

Ufc 98 was a good event , it wasnt really a stacked card , but , we got to see Rashad Defend his belt for the first time against the Dangerous Karate Master Lyoto Machida, everyone was wondering if rashad could adapt to machida’s style and finally give him a loss.
Also we finally see a matchup years in the making , Matt Hughes Vs. Matt Serra - Finally these 2 go at it , lots of talking took place before the match and it was really hyped up. Matt hughes wanted to shut serra up !

Overall the event wasnt too exciting , it did have alot of matches.
The Hughes and Serra Fight was rather boring for me, but alot of people were expecting what happened.

The Main Event Lyoto vs Evans was awesome ! it lived up to all the hype , i was just waiting for the counters and was trying to see if rashad could stop lyoto’s unique style , it builds up and then boom fireworks , i wont ruin it but it doesnt go the distance !

Historical Main Event Ushers in Machida Era!,

By Hmong Smith “GITS_2051″ (Fresno, California United States) -

If you want to own a piece of UFC history then buy this DVD. While it’s probably going to suck (in terms of extras and other reasons for owning this DVD), it is worth the price of purchase to own Machida vs. Rashad Evans.

UFC DVD’s are notorious for shortchanging those who want to re-experience watching the Pay-Per-Views–as that is NOT what you get on the DVD’s. What you get instead is a chopped up version of the event (sans fighter entrances and introductions). Even the fights that have the entrances (usually the main events and now and again the co-main event–though this was NOT the case on the UFC 94 DVD) all you get is some crappy music played over the actual songs that were played during the live events. Cheap UFC owners…

If you are a Machida fan and are hoping for some more insight, perhaps some behind-the-scenes video of him… if this is anything like the UFC 94 DVD, then you will get absolutely NOTHING! What a way to treat the champion of your marquee division. So, if you already have the Machida vs. Evans fight (if you ordered the Pay-Per-View and DVR’ed it) then you don’t need this stinking DVD.

Good event, but UFC usually puts out crappy DVD’s. You’ve been warned!
