Royce said he is open to fight Bravo with punches, no time limits, in mma style and that he doesn't compete in grappling tournaments.
The only reason he won't do an ADCC or grappling much is because he knows what would happen. If Wallid choked him out cold Bravo would likely do the same and dominate the match.
He should be able to defend his family honor and BJJ lineage in any challenge. 
People here put too much stock in grappling anyway. There are far more BJJ players than actual strikers.
Of course Royce challenged a bjj competitor to an mma match only.
Although Eddie is primarily known as a grappler at this point he would likely tool Royce in mma as well.
Royler gave up a lot of muscle to Eddie who talked about his weight training since 2003 on the podcast.
Malvert the Janitor - Royler gave up a lot of muscle to Eddie who talked about his weight training since 2003 on the podcast.Because eddies ground game is totally based on his strength.
Look at Eddie, get real hahaha

Have you seen the massive ankle muscles on Bravo? No one can escape his lockdown because of that! Once he flexes his ankles you ain't getting away.

Royce was never a sport BJJ competitor.
He did one tourney?
GJJ was always designed for vale tudo, not for sport BJJ.
Royce has proven he isn't "scared"

If someone is being a cunt, then they deserve to be called a cunt. Regardless of what contributions they've given in the past.
Royce was being a cunt.
Thought it was funny that Royce said that since he's always been so vocal about only needing BJJ. I would ever say that Royce is scared but if you're going to talk shit and put out a challenge at least make it something that has a thread of a chance at actually happening. Trying to fight a guy thats never had a pro fight is pretty lame and its not like Royce is some scrub in BJJ. They have some common ground so why not go there?
lol @ "say something".
I think challenging another martial artist to a fight is fine. Maybe wait until he's finished throwing up though.

He picked the wrong time to walk and SAY SOMETHING To Bravo! oh boy. if thats all it takes to become a cunt in your eyes then I dont what to tell ya.
LOL is this grade school all over again? WTF! grow a pair guys!
I'm pretty sure you are trolling, but just in case you aren't I will explain it to you.
Bravo just had a gruelling 20 minute match that was 11 years in the making. The amount of pressure on both competitors was staggering.
Royce should not have been back stage at that time for ANY reason. But he chose that time go back there WITH A BODYGUARD and try to start a FIGHT with Bravo. It is the ultimate in cuntiness to say the least. Royce didn't go corner Bravo to "say something" to him. He went back there to start shit with Bravo because he was a poor sport and was pissed that a competitor just dominated his brother in a jui jitsu match.
Royler had 20 minutes to get revenge for the first loss and try and snap every limb in Bravo's body but couldn't get the job done. So Royce decides he's going to go backstage and see if he can start a fight himself. Confronting Bravo and saying "I hear you are talking shit about my family", then after him denying it getting in his face and screaming "Dont you disrespect me!" is not just "Saying Something." It's a calculated attempt at starting a fight.
Let's reverse the situation. Let's say Royler just dominated Eddie the whole match and was in the process of snapping Eddie's arm the last seconds of the fight. Then let's say Joe Rogan grabs a bodyguard and goes backstage to start shit (or in your words, say something) to Royler. Then Rogan gets in Royler's face and screams "Dont you disrespect me!" You can bet the gracies there would probably have jumped Joe and beat the shit out of him. People on the forum here would be calling Joe the same thing wondering if he had lost his damn mind.

I don't think Royce beats Eddie in a jiu jitsu match, but I'm sure Royce isn't afraid. Maybe a bit delusional? Sure, but definitely not scared.
Fabes -

Maybe he's scared, maybe not. That's open for debate. What's not open for debate is him being an asshole last Saturday night.
If Royce wasn't scared to grapple Bravo then you bet your ass someone would get the match setup.
You would think Gracie would put his BJJ to the test since aren't they the ones that claimed BJJ as the superior martial art for combat sports?
The Gracie name and style aren't what they used to be now they are like the McDonalds of BJJ and MMA they are all about their brand and the cash. Royce gives useless seminars and has promoted more black belts than he can even keep track of.
Royce is selling Wolf Tickets.
