I think it depends on the person.

Is it ok to watch specialists in different disciplines of self deffense, primarily martial arts test their skills, training, and experience against the skills training and experience of other athletes?

I see no problem with it.

Is it ok to get all ratcheted up about violence, brutality and rage induced fighting?

Yeah, I think so.

Thats not what UFC or most MMA's is about.
If someone is inclined to violence, brutality, anger problems, and rage issues, then yeah, I'd say they are more likely to commit sin while watching or after watching a UFC competition. They shouldnt watch.
