Gracies train together for Pride in US

The Gracie fighters will realy face the top Japanese fighters during a challenge held next October 5th at Pride. Renzo Gracie has already rent a place to stick together the Gracie members that will represent the family at the tournament. The exclusive declaration was made by Master Robson Gracie, Renzo and Ryan's father. According to him, Renzo, Ryan and their cousin Rodrigo and Daniel are confirmed on the card.

- Renzo, Ryan, Ralph, Rodrigo and Daniel are confirmed. Charles still has chances to fight. They are even travelling to US. Renzo rent a house for them. There is a chance to have eight fighters, instead of only five - guarantees Robson Gracie.

Consulted by Team TATAME, three times ADCC champion Royler Gracie, who has been contemplated to join the tournament, revealed he is almost out of it. 'I proposed some money and they offered me so low than I though. No Holds Barred is too much stress and we do need a good money to face it', commented the black belt who also didn't like at all the opponent. 'I don't know his name, but he weights 80kg and I weight 65kg. They never give me a right weight fighter', complained. In the next couple of days Royler will be sure about his future at Gracie vs Japan's tournament.
