Relson is a grumpy old man. Who could kick my ass but grumpy all the same and DELUSIONAL on the Roger Gracie comments!
The last part I believe with Rickson. You cannot count training as actual fights. Helio said as much when asked about Rickson. The whole stuff about Royce is understandable to a point. Kinda ironic cause they seem to be preaching the same philosophy these last couple years. The things he said about Roger though!! Holy cow... What??!

It saddens me that you can from a art of innovation to stagnant thinking in the space of a few generations. Not saying what Relson is seeing in UFC isn't valid. There are likely some things that have gotten diluted from teacher to teacher but to say there isn't more technique one could employ that is extremely effective just rubs me the wrong way. It his opinion though.
I like it, the guy believes in something but he believes in it to the end and does not back off even one bit and I respect that.
Relson Gracie on the growth of Jiu Jitsu: get fucked. keep it old school.
Sorry about the double post, guys. This computer freezes up sometimes. I'm not saying I don't admire the grit of the dude and he is likely right about ground defense in the UFC at large. But.. Lol. Fuck it! The grumpy old man can say what ever the hell he wants. Every family needs the grumpy relative.
