UFC 10: The Tournament

The UFC was forced to relocate to Alabama after Rhode Island regulators challenged its license. In court, a judge ruled the event could only proceed under professional wrestling rules and rejected claims that the WWF was scripted, saying he had watched it for 20 years and believed it was real. After a wrestling license was denied, the move became final. The night marked Bruce Buffer’s first UFC event and was headlined by Mark Coleman defeating Don Frye, helping usher in the ground-and-pound era.
