UFC Roundtable Legends With Royce Gracie, Mark Colemen, Randy Couture And Tito Ortiz.
Awesome!
That Wanderlei greasing story was hilarious!
Nice episode
They should do a nimrod table with the early guys it probably would come with many fun stories.
I wish Tito just once would shut the hell up. He has to be the most annoying, rude and pompous fool I know..
I loved when they talked about the rules. Sometimes, they came up with rules on the spot. The ref. would just say, “no, you can’t do that,” and you had to abide.
There are many reasons to have all the rules they have now, but I will always miss the vale-tudo rules like Royce said: “No eye gouging, no biting.” And if you get eye gauged or bitten, tough luck! And people think cups are important now…
epic.some of the best fighters ever.i miss the days all those guys fought.we can always go watch the dvds and relive them though.
Why doesnt Royce ever credit any other mma fighter for the evolution of the sport. Its all about the gracies ?? … Well Royce, it may have been had you stuck around the ufc and continued to fight the likes of coleman, couture and ortiz. These guys change the gracie jj style ufc competition into an athletic sport of cross trained participants who would of crushed any gracie as the ufc progressed !!
it’s great to hear Couture give recognition to Minotauro & Crocop for producing 1 of the greatest fights to have graced this sport thus far. Made possible by the pinnacle of all venues: PRIDE FC! the truest most conducive MMA/ValeTudo format to date.
I think there was alot of good stuff left on the cutting room floor.
enjoyable!
Pride had some great fights, but you are forgetting all of the absolute bullshit mismatches, cooked fights, massive drug use, last minute changes, etc…a total lack of sport purity.
@thaddiuslustre Says couldn’t agree more.
pride had its ups and downs but given all that, at that time i’d rather watch pride than ufc.
and this was really entertaining.
