Royce ANNIHILATED

[BoarSpear]

I don't know if Royce even tried competing in Abu Dhabi at all... However, I think he would lose badly too

I vote close this topic! It's basically the same posts being repeated over and over. I mean I can predict almost every post being posted in the mma/bjj forum by looking at the name, and I don't have special powers either!

Yes yes close the topic 3 days of picking on the mma crowd is too much!! back to bashing the TMA's.

Bashing Royce is not bashing on MMA. There's not much to bash about mma except for the fact that the fighters train specifcally for competition, against a really tough opponent. MMA, in my mind, is the most effective way to train if you want to learn how to defend yourself(when youre unarmed), minus going to the ground...but you still have to know what to do(on the ground), if you end up there.

Really? wasnt the king of the ring just annihilated on the ground? So much for knowing what to do when put there by a well rounded fighter.

If Royce couldnt defend himself there what makes you think you can?

Royce doesnt represent MMA, he represents jiu jitsu. Hughes represents MMA. Hughes PROVED, you cant just be excellent at BJJ, but you have to be good at wrestling, stand up striking, and have alot of athletism to stand a chance.

And so, dear beloved, it came to pass that all the BJJ nutriders found a new knob to jockey, and rode off into the sunset to spread the new gospel, bleating "Hughes is my shepherd, I shall not want, he layeth me down in green pastures and humpeth me into submission.........."

Sigworthy perhaps, but here's a prediction;

Give it a few years and it'll be;

The moral of the story being, don't be a sheep.

I was never being a sheep....i just said Hughes was MMA, and Royce was BJJ.

Is that why you do Wing Chun mate?

[7r14ngL3Ch0k3]

Because he's not nearly as well rounded as today's fighters, and he tries to use only his BJJ game to beat his opponents. Sure, Royce fights MMA, but thats not what he represents. He represents Gracie Jiu Jitsu...he thought with his superior knowledge in GJJ, that he would have a good chance in defeating Hughes.

I see.
Thank you for your explanation.

Yeah Royce would have done better to use Wing Chun right.
