*****Imprisoned Iranian christian pastor Youcef Nadarkhani is being sentenced to death in Iran for practicing christianity. He has been given the choice of publicly denouncing Christianity and returning to Islam or the death penalty. Please spread the word. Lets save this guy and put international pressure on Iran.*****
He was losing that fight until he got lucky. Pat has wanted to fight him again, but the Gracie Machine new he would lose the second time. The Militich camp has owned many Gracie fighters
Renzo is the best of the Gracies.He never has chozen his opponents or the regulations, he fought anybody theu put infront of him.He won most he lost some but the guy has balls the size of grapefruit. Respect!
"it's like what johny cash says you got to be tough to be a boy called sue,and its the same when you are a gracie,my father gave me the gravel in my gut's and the spit in my eye but i know who i am" renzo gracie
the man is in another level. He is a fighter and he will go down being one. Seems like a real chess match. Through this fight he proved that its not only muscle but more brain and quick reflexes.
The biggest advantage strikers have in MMA today is that it's no gi. Foot locks are practically impossible after a couple of rounds. So are a lot of sweeps.
Gi MMA would be cool. You'd see so many more submissions and Judo throws and the like.
The Gracies are excellent on the ground. Present rules on most MMAs standing up the fighters if the ground game became boring is not encourageing the development of ground grappling techniques. Pre UFC old Japanese uninterrupted fights are super good on the ground game. I believe all of present day MMA champs couldn't match the excellent grappling tencniques of those era. Presently very few of the UFC fighters effectively applied foot lucks in their fights.
Sem dúvida a maior Gracie depois de Hélio e Carlson . Escreveu livros . Nunca amarelou. Não usa drogas .O único na atualidade em condições de lutar e não fazer feio . Polêmico , fala besteira algumas vezes , mas até nisto é coerente.
Parabéns Renzo . Você éo cara! Rickson não aguentaria 1/2 round com você!
I wouldn't get so caught up in the last name itself. Matt Serra is a Renzo Gracie student. GSP trained with Renzo until he had to fight Serra. Not to mention Nog, Silva, BJ Penn, all black belts in brazilian jiu jitsu. BJJ wouldn't be here today without the Gracies so just because they themselves aren't champs doesn't mean they're irrelevant in MMA. Not to mention i've met a few (Renzo, Igor, Gregor, Daniel) and they all have more heart then anyone i've ever met.
Why aren't the interviews like this one more popular with the mainstream media. MMA has taken a lot of knocks for being barbaric. If people would take the opportunity to listen to guys like Renzo, Rickson and Master Helio, (who are all so well spoken on this sport) I'm sure MMA would be viewed in an much more positive light than it currently is in popular media portrayals. Send the detractors to watch this clip and I'm sure they'll think differently. Great interview.
I agree 100% but forget all that jibber jabber and lets see whose going to win and how they are going to win it is what most people want to see..no matter how many times you say or how many different ways you say it..it's just like the gladitorial scene in modern days.you say expose the inner beauty of the sport through representatives, i say find it for yourself and experience a live PPV showing by yourself and you'll see why we love this sport.
I don't think this sport is for everyone, mind you, but I do think there are a lot of people who could learn to appreciate the beauty and athleticism of MMA if they had a chance to learn about it from an experienced person. My mom still can't watch me fight, but she can, and does, watch MMA on TV with me. She has come to admire the athletes for their abilities and heart. And it's all due to having it explained to her from an insiders perspective.
People don't understand that in a good MMA match between two mature, professional fighters, there is no actual aggression between the two, no hate- in fact, there's nothing more or less than a mutual respect.
