This is just an aside, but I remember about 11-12 years ago Paul deThouars (I believe it was Paul). Put a 1/4 page add in black belt attacking the UFC for not allowing him to compete. He did challege the Gracies in the add but it was about the UFC. He said hhe was told his style was too brutal or something to that effect. Now This may have been hype for Silat or you cn buy into the rumor of teh early UFC I don't know. This post made me think of that. After that I borrowed one of his tapes it was very brutal, very good stuff!!
