UFC 9

UFC 9: Motor City Madness è stato un evento di arti marziali miste tenuto dalla Ultimate Fighting Championship il 17 maggio 1996 al Cobo Arena di Detroit, nel Michigan.

Retroscena[modifica | modifica wikitesto]

È il primo evento UFC a non presentare il torneo ad eliminazione diretta, ma una normale card con la sfida per il titolo Superfight come incontro principale; dal successivo evento UFC 10 la modalità a torneo venne ripristina su grande richiesta dei fan.

In quel periodo le critiche sociali nei confronti delle arti marziali miste si inasprirono ulteriormente e il senatore dell'Arizona John McCain lanciò una vera e propria campagna contro tale sport; dopo una dura battaglia legale l'UFC poté proseguire con i propri spettacoli ma dovette modificare le regole dei combattimenti, vietando le testate e i colpi ravvicinati alla testa dell'avversario: anche a causa di queste nuove regole la sfida per il titolo Superfight tra Ken Shamrock e Dan Severn è tuttora considerato uno dei peggiori incontri nella storia delle MMA. McCain riuscì a impedire la trasmissione pay-per-view degli spettacoli UFC in numerose trasmittenti, tra queste la TCI.
