Mark Coleman destroys Don Frye. The Hammer is the godfather of Ground and Pound.

On July 12, 1996, the UFC 10 tournament took place, where, according to the traditional Olympic system, 8 fighters fought for victory. At the time, fans were mostly into the tournament style, as it was thought to add an element of stamina to the fighters. The event was broadcast live on pay-per-view in the United States and was later released on VHS. Then the legendary Bruce Buffer, who is still an indispensable UFC ring announcer, announced the fights in the octagon for the first time. But there is another fact that has become important for the history of the development of mixed martial arts. This is the debut at this tournament of the talented American wrestler Mark Coleman, who is considered the founder and pioneer of the "ground and pound" strategy. This style of ground control has been, is, and will be used by all successful mixed martial arts fighters.
