royce says the reason he lost to Matt was because he overtrained and its pretty obvious he still thinks matt hughes is just a wrestler not a well rounded fighter its kinda sad how he actually believes the gracies are "leading the way" in mma still . Royce is the new Ken Shamrock. He says he knew exactly what Matt was going to do lmmfao! unreal

Gracie needs to wake up and realize this isn't 1993 and the fighters today are better than they were 13 years ago.

I wouldn't mind seeing him get pulverized again...the arrogance of Jiu Jitsu players really makes my blood boil. Jiu Jitsu is not the be all end all to everything it is only a piece of the puzzle. I remember how when I was only 6 months into grappling and our instructor began to let us ground and pound in our practice with head gear and gloves. This one arrogant Jiu Jitsu black belt who thought he was the ****...looked like a deer in the head lights when he tried to arm bar me, I rolled with the bar toward him with a straight right to the face knocking him out...after that he was humbled and soon joined an all Grappling no striking school.

ROFL, so what so you can see Matt finally break that arm? I would much rather see Matt fight the other top guys at 170 there is the only division that UFC has that is really really interesting to me. Matt vs St Pierre is a step in the right direction. I dont want to see Royce get murdered again.
The tables were reversed from 15 years ago when Royce beat the arrogant guys who didn't respect his style and they were totally outmatched due to there refusal to cross train and adapt. Now its Royce who is arrogant as to the prowess of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and refusal to cross train, and adapt. Now he is the one getting totally dominated.
BTW almost any of the top 170 guys would've beaten Royce.

Even Georges St. Pierre and BJ Penn will destroy Royce.
