Forgive my ignorance lol but are these all UFC? I know of UFC and Strikeforce but that's about it. I know of a couple of fighters too and have watched the odd fight here and there but never with any great interest. I'm willing to seriously give it a go this time around though. WWE just isn't doing the business anymore tbh and the recent Lesnar matches against Cena and HHH completely mesmerized me and that was all down to Brock and his MMA style. I figure I may as well check out the real thing and see how it goes. Thanks for the suggestions thus far. I'll definitely be looking into some of these when I get the time.

Watch Nick Diaz vs Gomi, Forrest vs Bonnar, Dan Hardy vs Shogun Rua.

^ Dan Henderson vs Shogun Rua*

Dan Hardy vs Shogun is a freakshow fight :

Its been said that MMA is the best pro wrestling right now. Heated rivalries and undefeated streaks, its really awesome, and the crowds and atmosphere can rival a WWE show.

[Premium Walls]

The UFC needs to mic their crowds better.

^^totally agree, always felt that, its funny how quiet they seem especially during entrances when its probably deafening in the building.
Adds so much atmosphere when you can hear them going nuts.

Chael Sonnen vs. Anderson Silva is a must watch for anyone looking to get into the sport as a fan. It's an amazing fight with such an outstanding finish, plus it's the best damn middleweight that ever lived vs. Anderson Silva.

Edgar/Maynard II is fucking fantastic, and watch Varner/Lauzon is pretty awesome as well.

[DX-Superkick]

If I may, I suggest the young lad pick up a copy of UFC Best of 2011. Very easy way to see a buch of awesome fights and keep track of names too. You won't be disappointed and it includes in full, fights such as but not limited to, Edgar/Maynard 2, Jones/Machida and Shogun/Henderson.

Watching MMA Highlights on youtube of individual fighters will get you interested.
