Lost So Much Respect For The Gracie Name

the gracies have acted like this since the beginning tbh, did people expect any different?

Without a doubt - he doesn't have that character failure that Kirik mentioned.

Ray Cappa - The breakdowns ain't shit. Just a commercial for their product. They are 100% selling all the time. 24/7/365.
Don't expect anything but an infomercial from them ever. Even when they go on other podcasts, it ends up being a long commercial for the online "school" which, they'll have you believe, is actually better than a bricks n mortar school. Yeah, so... anybody not taking everything they say with a huge grain of salt is a grade A rube. Phone Post 3.0
You make it sound like selling something is evil. UFC was just an informercial for the same product. Phone Post 3.0
Not evil at all. But buyer beware. They are not "packaging" their free content as a commercial. They're incredibly skillful marketers. They make Lloyd Irvin and his hack millionaires club look like special ed rejects. All I'm saying is, they'd prefer you not think (know) that everything that comes out of their mouthes is with the aim at making a sell. People should be mindful of this. Phone Post 3.0

Just re-watched the Gracie Breakdown of Metamoris 3, and not once did they acknowledge that Bravo dominated Royler. Actually, I've yet to hear any Gracie admit it. That's just sad. How in the world am I suppose to trust an instructor to teach me what he truly believes to be the best methods of defending myself and my loved ones lives if I can't trust that instructor to admit something so obvious?



Nothing will ever change what the Gracie's did for martial arts. But, until I actually hear a Gracie admit that Bravo was dominant in that match, I'll never spend a dollar on any of them. Even if one is on a UFC main card, I just wont do it. 


Well said. Couldn't agree more. VU

Has Renzo said anything about the match? Phone Post

Remember Jiu-Jitsu is the main livleyhood for the Gracie family and close to a religion for them. Its taken them generations to build their name and reputation. Can't really blame them for trying to protect their empire. If Eddie wants further his name/empire he should stop challangeing Helio and match up with Marcelo Garcia.

Meh, coca-cola was first, than Pepsi and all the rest came along and tasted the same or better.
