But you can't even compare it to wife-beating...these guys knew what they were getting into when they signed the contracts. I don't know how many guys have their wives sign a contract before beating them, but I'm guessing not too many. And I know you were probably joking, or just didnt think that comparison all the way through.

Anthony - Oh, I see. I haven't seen him wrestle in a long time, and was wondering if he still did or not. Thanks for the update. Is he still anywhere as good as he used to be?
C...

He beat the shit out of Yoshita their last fight. Though technically a draw. Last fight I beileve was with Akebono, a sumo wrestler, who he submitted in his guard with a wrist lock.

Can this man beat me senseless? Yes. Is he up to the top of MMA? I don't see Royce beating Crocop, Vanderlai, all the top MMA guys. MMA has gone forward.

I am looking forward to seeing the new generation of Gracies. Roger is kicking major ass, I'm can't wait to see my old instructors Ryron, Rener, and Ralek to enter the MMA scene.
