Royce Gracie

Back in my days as a young teenage boy in the Karate Club one of the most asked questions was who would win between a Karate guy and a Judo guy? Or who would win between a Boxer and a Wrestler? What is better Kung Fu or Tae Kwon Do?

20 years later along comes 'Royce Gracie'

Everybody in the world saw Combat Sport Brazilian Jiu-jitsu stylist Royce Gracie easily pick apart the cultural fighting art practitioners in the first Ultimate Fighting Championships.

To prove it was no fluke he went on to win three more UFC titles and today is the only man in history of no holds barred matches to successfully defeat four opponates in one night.

This legendary MMA World Champion & UFC Hall of Famer was in Abu Dhabi over the weekend in attendence at the World Professional Jiu Jitsu Championships.

I took advantage of this once in a lifetime oppertunity to go and say hello to a true gentleman and a living legend.
