Interesting old Rickson quote

BB: Has anyone in Japan ever asked you to do a fixed fight?

GRACIE: Yes. But that's totally against my principles. Takada's people wanted us to fix the fight, but we said, "No, we don't fight fake." I call myself only a fighter, a martial artist and a teacher. I'm definitely not an entertainer. I don't have any desire to use my skills to just entertain people-by sometimes losing and sometimes winning fake fights. It's against my honor.

I didnt know that they had attempted to set up a work with Rickson losing.

How do you know Rickson was asked to lose?

The Japanese really seem to blur that line but there is no doubt they produce legitimate fighters.

Rickson Gracie is an honorable man.

There is no way anyone could convince me that Rickson didn't carry Takada in their second fight. I'm not a Rickson hater but damn, that was way too fucking obvious. I know Rickson wouldn't do a fixed fight, but I bet he'd take an offered pay incentive to let the fight go past XX number of seconds/minutes.

Flow wid da go.....

I wonder if anybody can make a side scrolling game with rickson in which his weapon is thrown water bottles?

Hey somethings are happening down-under as well (KOTC)

BONES, you don't need convincing man, you actually need some brains...
