One of the hottest gifts of the Holiday season for MMA fans will undoubtedly be the UFC: Ultimate Fight Collection 2011 Edition. The collection covers 170 fights on 20 discs with over 50 hours of content covering every event from July 2010 to June 2011 and will be released on November 8 at Best Buy and December 6 at all other retailers.
In addition to the fights, the collection will offer plenty of interesting behind the scenes footage, and a lot of “best of” footage with Joe Rogan among others.
The fine folks behind the release will be giving you, the Bloody Elbow reader some sneak peeks at some of the footage from the set.
Today we get a brief glimpse at some of the preparation footage while Georges St. Pierre got ready to face Jake Shields at UFC 129.
It’s an interesting throw back to just a few months ago to hear GSP say that he respected Jake Shields and did not want to take him lightly at all. That fight wasn’t pretty, but St. Pierre was put in a position where he was pushed much more than he had been in years.
