My 10 favorite MMA favorites of ALL time
1. Renzo Gracie
2. Mark Coleman
3. Randy Couture
4. Oleg Taktarav
5. Royce Gracie
6. Broc Lesner
7. Bart Vale
8. Dan Severn
9. Rickson Gracie
10. Chuck Lidell
Notice that I did not put either of the Shamrocks in my list.
Pound for pound I think that Reno Gracie was a lot better than Royce. Whats your opinion on that statement?
Renzo Gracie is my favorite Gracie who fought MMA. He realized that you couldn't be a one trick pony in MMA for long and was the only Gracie (of his generation) to adopt striking skills into his arsenal.
I definitely agree that Renzo is better than Royce, I don't think Royce was really that good at MMA at all. Even in BJJ, he's good (he's a blackbelt afterall) but he's definitely not one of the better contenders in grappling.
Mad props to the man though for stepping into the cage and showing us the flaws in many people's game.

I've never seen him actually fight but they say the best of all the Gracie clan is Rickson Gracie. I agree with you on Renzo being a good striker.
I've seen old school footage of Rickson rolling with the Machados and the man definitely has some sick grappling. From my knowledge I think the one Gracie that was truly the best was Rolles Gracie. He was supposed to have trained Rickson himself when he was young and I've heard rumors of them having very epic rolls.

I've never seen a MMA fight in my life? who the F***** are you? I've seen planty of them and have seen them live. And what did I ever do to you to piss you off? Or are you just naturally a dick head? As for being a newb, I might be a newb on this forum but I have 20 years martial art experience under my belt. How about you?
Um, it's way too late so I'll probably make a spelling mistake, but I'll try anyway. I'm also not promising to get the numbers right, like make it all the way to 10... Also my list is in no particular order.
