Mr. Miyagi will become famous soon enough
Thumbs up Fantastic WALLID interview!!!!!

post fight comments:

Wallid: "There is something I want to say first. This is for Ryan Gracie. You are a coward. I was going to have a match with Ryan. He and I both signed for the match and were ready to go. But one month before he pulled out of the arrangement. And after that we again tried to sign a match but he pulled out of that as well. After that at a party I bumped into Ryan. He was glaring at me and when I turned my back he tried to attack me. At that point I quickly took him down and choked him out. I am a student of Carlson Gracie, a person I really respect and look up to. The other Gracie family has nothing good to say about Carlson. That is why I defeated everyone in the other Gracie family. Four people. Rickson Gracie is refusing to fight me. He is refusing to fight me and running away scared."

Is that what you wanted to say in the ring?

"Yes."

What is your impression of Ohyama?

"I think he is a very strong competitor. I think he could not his fight but until the very end before he was choked out, he fought with all his might. I truly respect my opponents. Win or lose. But Ryan Gracie is a fu(king asshole."

You won't fight Ryan again?

"I want to fight but he ran away three times already. It's not even worth discussing. Unless the fans say "we want Ismail vs. Ryan" I don't think it will happen."

Who do you want to fight in the PRIDE ring next time?

"Whoever the PRIDE matchmakers decide, I will fight. Someone in my weight class of course. PRIDE is a very good event. I'm very happy I was able to get up on this ring. The reason I did not fight until now was because Ryan Gracie cancelled our fight twice. Does everyone know? The fact that I beat Royce Gracie. I beat him in five minutes. It took Sakuraba an hour and a half to beat him but I beat him in five minutes. I have proof of this. I have pictures. If you give me your business card I will bring you all of the evidence from Brazil."

Wallid's about as subtle as a punch in the face, isn't he?

Has everyone seen the video of Wallid putting Royce to sleep? It's pretty cool!

LOL!! That's some hilarious $hit. But I hope he realizes that Sakuraba would kick the crap out of him

Martial Artist, Why do you dislike Wallid? Is it because he choked out your hero and then used that match for self-promotion? He did what anyone else would have done. A lot of people like to knock Wallid because he has beaten some Gracies (a lot of you train with them), because he's not a good looking guy, or whatever other reason you can scrape up. Wallid seems like a really good guy and his interviews are nowhere near as ridiculous as Royce's and Rickson's interviews. I used to admire Rickson but he does nothing but run his mouth and do nothing to back it up. You should read this interview: http://geocities.com/global_training...t/rickson3.htm
Ryan is a known troublemaker and many people witnessed him cheap shot-sucker punch Wallid, only to get guillotined unconscious.

Maxximus, I see why you think that Sakuraba might kick the crap out of Wallid. Unfortunately for Wallid, his two worst fights ever have been the most high-profile. He showed up out-of-shaped and overconfident for those two fights. He is 19-2 in MMA with wins over Eugenio Tadeau, Johil de Oliveira, and Gary Myers. Which Gracie was it that could do nothing to Tadeau and ended up out of breath buttscooting and was saved from a loss by a riot? Takahashi stayed up using the fence the same way that Yamamoto did against Rickson. I predict that Wallid will become a respectable top 10 fighter in the under-185 division.

As for Royce, if Wallid fought him MMA he'd beat him almost as quickly and use the gi to choke his ass out just like last time. Don't tell me that Royce is better at MMA, because what is he better at? Nothing, besides maybe defending from strikes which won't matter because Wallid would be beating him the juijitsu way using that "inferior" Carlson Gracie technique.

Mr Miyagi- I dislike Wallid becuase he runs his mouth about he damn good he is and why EVERYBODY in the world is scared to fight him. Do you actually think that Rickson is running scared from Wallid. I can understand some self promotion but lets not get carried away with it all. I have already read that interiview and dont find anything wrong with it. I dont know why you act like Royce is my hero or something. I like watching Royce fight. Whats wrong with that? Everybody on this damn thread thinks that Wallids interview is bullshit except you. Get a life and stop acting like Wallid is the greates thing since sliced bread.

I personally think Wallid kicks ass. Rorion/Royce/Ryan ran their mouths, it was about time someone gave them $hit back.

Unhappy

Call me behind the times, but that interview is the first time I heard of Rockson Gracie's passing. That's truly depressing.

Sorry you had to find out during this thread Lachy.

Martial Artist, I guess it's these things we can't understand that makes us a fan of whichever guy. Later.

Wallid is the man. Not only is he an Arab brotha, but my Jiu Jitsu class call me Wallid because my name is sort of, kind of, his name. Its Khaled (have you guys ever seen Khalid Reeves in the NBA?) but my teacher has been calling me Kaleed since day one and no matter how many times I've told him how to pronounce my name, he still calls me that. So now I'm Kaleed Ismail.

This is boooooooooosheeeeeeeeet

Since when were Renzo & Ryan a part of "The Other Gracie Family" ?
