I know you've seen every one of these clips before. But it's Rickson -the dude who did a standing carwheel in the middle of an MMA fight. So you have no choice but to watch them all again.
I once asked Rigan Machado - a contemporary of Rickson, if all the hype was true about Rickson back in the day. We were in a car and there were no cameras rolling and I knew it was one of those times where he would be completely candid and would give an honest answer.
"Nobody could beat him", he replied.

I remember I liked Gerard Gordeau after his performance in UFC 1, and was hoping he would win against Yuki Nakai. (nagai?) Anyway, he used some foul tactics, blinded the guy for life, and then tapped to a heelhook. Oldschool NHB man. :/ Rickson on the other hand was very nice in the finals. I liked how he just slowly clinched without throwing punches, inviting Nakai in, instead of busting up his eye more.
