Stephan interviews John Perretti, the matchmaker for the early UFC and the EFC (Extreme Fighting Championship).

In this interview he talks about the rules and weight classes he created for the fledgling sport of Mixed Martial Arts (a term that he is credited with coining), how he found and selected fighters, brain trauma in the combat sports, his disdain for the current state of the UFC, and much more.
