Not impressed, but what do you expect them to say?

True, Gracie Jiu-Jitsu may have won, but shouldn't Royce be better than someone else? That question still remains for me.

Just cos they use a move in their martial art doesn't mean it belongs to them. If what they say is true, a farm boy wrestler beat them in the art they invented. How is that not embarrassing?

Firstly they did come up with these moves, or atleast adaptations (sp?) for the smaller guy, so they can have that.

But yes, they're embarrased and trying to show they're not.

If it were any of us, as individuals, we would most likely put our hands up and admit we made a mistake and paid the price, but most of us don't have the surname "Gracie" so it stands to reason they want to protect and maintain the aura of the name.

"Original and best", as it were.

Was a Good reply by Royce.

That's what I was hoping to read, not trying to 'big-up' Gracie Jiu-Jitsu after a battering.
