UFC Fight Night 26 was a fight card filled with plenty of action and highlights.
It was actually one of the better UFC events in recent memory, and it pulled a great rating for the launch of the newest member of the Fox family.
As good as it was live, it might be even better when watched with the footage shot with the special Fox Sports Phantom Cam. Take another look at Travis Browne’s knockout of Alistair Overeem and the other memorable moments from the night as the Phantom Cam captured some of the best action in breathtaking fashion.
The typical high-definition camera records footage at 380 frames per second. The Phantom Cam, however, records at up to 5,000 frames per second. As you can imagine, the result is a level of detail that is amazing to take in.
The Phantom Cam is slowly making its way into other sports—nearly the entire family of Fox regional cable networks already utilizes it for baseball, where you can actually see details as minute as wood splinter from bats—but there’s no sport better suited to capturing the level of detail the camera provides than mixed martial arts.
So kick your shoes off, pour yourself a tasty beverage, lean back in your recliner and check out these sweet Phantom Cam highlights from UFC Fight Night 26 with Browne, Overeem, Michael Johnson, Joe Lauzon and more.
