Yeah, those things were fantastic.
That type of stuff is one of the biggest reasons I like being an MMA fan right now. The sport's getting big, but it's not too big that it's totally inaccessible. It's pretty easy to run into fighters in restaurants, hotel lobbies, weigh-ins, etc. And no other sport has its commishioner-type taking a camera around and giving a glimpse into the inner-workings of everything. This sort of accessibility won't last forever, but it's fun to enjoy while it does.
