I would have loved to see Igor vs Wandy though, that would have been a sick fight
Thats true. He didn't exactly end on a high note, but I will always remember him as KOing dudes like a crazy man. I have this IFC: Kiev event I got for $1 that he's in, I think I might do one of these retro things with that, although I havn't watched it so it wouldn't really be retro...

Yeah, maybe Igor did leave at the right time. He had some success after Mirko killed him, dropping down and completely out grappling Yuki Kondo. He lost to Overeem and Nakamura, but it's not like he was all broken down in those fights.

I'll have to watch some Nick Nutter, as he sounds like one of those fun obscure fighters from way back. Have you seen his 25 minute fight with Igor, Robb?
I've seen it, Igor comes off a long fight, then has to face a reletivly fresh Nick Nutter in the Finals, Igor gets possesed by the spirit of Big Nog, taking some major punishment, Like the fight should have been stopped because Nutter really whomped him. Igor refused to die and Nutter tapped while on top of Igor in a very odd ending to a pretty brutal fight. Nutter either tapped because he broke his hand, fatigue, a cut or a combination of the three, but Igor was in it to the death.

Here is the fight.....

There's alot of stuff on youtube and Dailymotion, just search stuff like WVC, IVC, Mecca Vale Tudo, IFC. add words like MMA or Vale Tudo to you're search if you don't get what you are looking for. Fightfinder is always a good tool to use if you want to find some old NHB fights.

If you want to order entire cards on DVD then check out this site. They have all the Japanese and Brazilian promotions as well as alot of other US promotions. Just take a look around the site, they have so much good stuff. The DVD's are good quality and they ship reletivly fast.
