"Its funny thought that you have Royce and Sakuraba on the same list though, since Sakuraba punked Royce out."

umm did you even see the fight? how can you say fighting for 1 1/2 hours is being punked out in anyway? also you do know that sak fractured royce's femur right.. granted SAK definately beat royce but i would not say PUNKED OUT.. there isn't anyone here that would probably last an hour and a half with either one.

"I am not even sure Royce would make the top BJJ list"

he definately should be on here.

". Isn't Rickson suppsed to be much better?"

yes very much better..

"As for BJJ goes, my understanding is that Rigan Machado would destroy Royce. They are on two different levels."

they are cousins. in most fights the gracies including royce have beaten the muchados. not all but most.. ofcourse this is not NHB fights just BJJ.

also in boxing i would add tyson(young tyson.. not todays) you have to admit in his prime he was the man.
