He is my favorite of them all and I really look foreward to him fighting again... I pray he wins and wins big. He looks like he gained some muscle:

Maybe if we are lucky when Creed moves from Wendys he will hook up at Burger King so we can get a discount

Hey Bzob, ever hear of the MMA forum. Its at the top of the page when you click forums home. It is full of threads about fighters and fight news, check it out sometime.......

BTW, Ryan is my favorite Gracie too. I want to see him fight Wallid.....

I particularly do not care for him. I've not seen anything about hiim that would make me a fan of his and his attitude is not the best. Renzo in the other hand has my fanship!

I am a Renzo fan too. I like his attitude, The only non exciting fight I have seen him in was against Sakuraba......

Bzob

Isnt Renzo the one that stepped on that dudes head in Cage Combat or whatever it was called?

No, Sakuraba is a god among men, I just thought that fight was kinda boring......

How could anybody hate Sakuraba?

lightweight

Ok, I really liked that fight, it just suprised me that someone found that fight boring.

Not, Renzo vs. Sak. I am talking about Ryan vs. Sak.....

OOOOH, that makes more sense. The Ryan fight wasn't that great.

Renzo vs. Sakuraba was a great fight......

Who you picking out of Renzo Vs. Newton?

Bzob
10-01-2003, 11:05 AM
I am takeing Renzo

lightweight
10-01-2003, 11:07 AM
I'm picking Newton, I like watching him fight.

realkaps
10-01-2003, 11:08 AM
I think Newton has better standup, but I dont expect them to stay on there feet long. I think it will go the distance......

Ryan and Renzo are both cool. Ryan is smarter then he looks in the ring but I am pretty sure he will gas fast with all the roids he has been on.

Im taking Newton....but Im a lil bias since I dont really care for any gracies

Can someone tell me why some of the Gracies are made fun of on different forums??? No one will tell me, & I can't figure out why since they started UFC, why they would be the butt of jokes??

It largely has to do with the fact that Royce....and I am going to put this all on Royce for now although he is not the only one... is very arrogent about his jiu-jitsu. Royce believes that he can beat anyone as long as he fights by the old rules. He believes his martial art is superior to all others. That's where is really all comes from. Royce really kinda refuse to cross train for a while because he thought he could win on pure BJJ.

Also Royce always wants to fight under the no time limits, no ref stoppage rules as he believes this is the only true way to fight.

People hate this because they always think he has to get his way and all this ****. They diss all the Gracies based on their opinion of one of them. People also think that all these Gracie fighters suck and are just living off the Gracie name to make money. They refuse to acknowledge that they are the pioneers of MMA and that they all train very hard and have earned the right to be in the ring.

I myself am huge fan of all the Gracies and try to defend them when I can. Ryan, Renzo, Royce and Rodrigo are my favorites but Ralph is looking like a real bad ass too.

Why bother having an MMA forum? I think if you post an mma thread in off topic you should be instantly and permanently banned. ****ing ghey.
