I was just wondering who you guys think he should fight. And if you think he can make a positive comeback after the steroid issue.

no hes washed up and in a time where people are complete fighters. matt hughes dominated him on the ground. any top 10 welterweight would beat him , even top 20 IMO. i say hang it up and save his legacy. his fights are boring also IMO. unless he pulls off a quick sub on someone that doesnt know any JJ , the fights are long lay n pray from his back in guard. can he make 170? his fight with hughes was a catch weight. 178. surely middle weights would mall him. hang them up dont follow ken shamrock.

IF he ever comes back i highly doubt he will get a license in NV... they suspended him until his license came up... He is a dinosaur... Renzo is the best of the fighting gracies... hes miles above his cousin Royce... Royce should of stoped at UFC5 and called it a career in MMA and gone back to normal grapling matches

Renzo is the best Gracie?!?!?!? Rickson is the best. Renzo is definately second. I wish Bas Rutten would fight Royce. "El Guapo" for life son.

I agree with you guys on this one.Royce & Ken have had some unfinished business for a very long time now.I'm interested to see how a third match would go down after all these years.I could see it happening in Yamma or something.

Yes, Renzo is the best. He's not afraid to fight the best and has class, unlike the other Gracies who cry and whine when things don't go their way and duck Saku like Rickson's been doing forever.

Inflating your record to the point of your own father laughing at it, and only fighting cans officially doesn't qualify you as a great MMA fighter. Rickson is nothing but a myth.

i pretty much agree with you.Renzo has shown the best overall skills of all the gracies in the ring (Ryan showed decent well rounded skills as well).Though I will admit Rickson has got the best straight BJJ out of all of them.Even with that questionable record.

Who has Rickson ever really gone against of any challenge... he got a semi name for beating Takada like 3 time... but then again takada was a pro wrestler who wanted to be like Sakuraba and actualy be good in MMA but failed... Renzo Royce Royler and Ryan all atleast had the balls to take their beating from Sakuraba instead of running from him because he knew he would lose.

I understand were your coming with the Saku angle.But watching Rickson pure BJJ,I think P4P he's the best Gracie.I'm not saying he would beat Saku,but out of all the Gracies I believe his BJJ is the best.Renzo I think is all around the best,but at pure BJJ I believe Rickson is untouched.
