to sumarize:
1) royce fought sak (the undisputed best-pre vanderlei) for 1 hour & 30 min. he caught a few shots, but was never close to being knocked out or submitted. he had to throw in the towel b/c his ankle was re-broke (congrats to sak for the hard kick to royce's guard).
2) if you think royce vs yocheata 1 was a legit win, you are a true gracie hater and your opinion is null & void.
fun fact: yocheata had to be hospitalized after their 2nd fight.
3) royce's "special rules" are NO RULES.
let me ask you this: what is the best test of someone's fighting skill?
a no rules, no time limit fight to either tap or KO?
or an overabundance of rules and regulations where someone can lay and pray like a lonely homo to a decision?

Unfortunately for Royce, MMA is a sport WITH RULES. We're not saying Matt Hughes would win in a street fight (which I think he would anyway). In this sport, where the rules are specific, he shouldn't be able to bend them to his needs.
