read about how much of a sore loser royce and the gracie family are,they complained after the fight and threaten to leave pride in favor of the fight being made a no contest,royce demanded a rematch with no judges.go to wikipedia and read about it royce is a bitch,i can't stand the gracie family

[wildyknight]

Royce got owned by yoshida I can see all those bjj fans crying now

[SGTbjj]

My favourite choke.

@m5p944 The superiority of a olympic gold medalist heavier judo fighter over a not-a-champion bjj fighter is pretty obvius.

[andrewmanford]

@m5p944 they are close in style and effectiveness. i would not say that judo is superior in the least, certainly not obviously. it's the practitioner not the practice.

@TerryMMA85 i lol'ed when you said "wikipedia"

[jshealy]

not giving up is not the same as winning Gracies. this was a loss.

The Japanese immigrant that came to Brazil (Mitsuyo Maeda) and introduced Jiu-Jitsu to the Gracie's was a JUDO expert.

[CountNickula]

@m5p944 Judo is superior to Japanese Jiu-Jitsu, but it's about equal to BJJ as far as effectiveness.
