Ultimate Fighting videos allow you to watch your favorite fight nights in your own home again and again. UFC fights are rarely rebroadcast in their entirety, so buying an official copy is often the only way to relive a fight. It's easy to buy Ultimate Fighting videos, but you can spend lots of money if you aren't careful.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Make a list of your favorite fights or UFC fighters and research which events they fought in. You only need to know the UFC event number to make finding the video very easy.

  2. Step 2

    Check your favorite movie store to see if it has any Ultimate Fighting videos in stock. Large chain stores are starting to carry some of the most popular DVDs, so you might be able to buy one locally.

  3. Step 3

    Shop at the official UFC store if you are looking for obscure match ups or can't find videos in stores. UFC Fight Club members can often get a discount when they buy Ultimate Fighting videos direct from the web store (see Resources below).

  4. Step 4

    Pay attention to the region coding of any UFC DVD you want to buy. Almost all new videos are region-free, but some of the older ones aren't.

  5. Step 5

    Check out some of the special features that are on the Ultimate Fighting videos. You can often view the fights from camera angles that are different from those used for the official broadcast.

  6. Step 6

    Get a UFC instructional video featuring your favorite fighters to learn more about their styles and training habits. Even if you don't practice a martial art, these videos can be illuminating and give you a few useful fitness tips.

Tips & Warnings
  • Some fighters are featured in DVDs that show highlights from their UFC careers along with interviews and special features.
  • You can buy a few select fights on VHS tapes if you don't have a DVD player.
  • UFC videos are often available at events, but they are sometimes more expensive than if you buy them online.
  • The Fight Club membership costs roughly the price of three DVDs, so only get one if you plan to buy event tickets or lots of merchandise.
  • Some UFC events were larger than others, so a more expensive two-disc set is made available.
  • Never enter your personal information to make an online purchase if you don't have a secure connection to the website. Larger retailers often have a phone number you can use to order if you can't establish a secure connection.
