ElijaOxford, you have a lot to learn about MMA making a title like that. But like most, you are probably doing it for a view count. Gracie Jiujitsu isn't Jujutsu aka Jiujutsu (Notice the spelling) and it is sport. The Gracie's got their 'Jiujitsu from the Machado's. The Machado's learned from the Japanese but it was Judo and decided to call it Jiujitsu. So essentially, BJJ is not true Jujitsu. They got out of the UFC because the wrestlers starting learning more about submission grappling. They ducked lots of fights. Gene Lebell (RIP) tried to line up a fight between the best Gracie 'Rickson Gracie' and Gokor Chivichyan, not rules, no excuses. The father (RIP) Rorion Gracie (sp?) told Gene Lebell "We don't fight that kind of fighting" in those exact words, broken English. Gene Lebelle's World Grappling Federation comes from true Japanese Judo and Japanese Jujutsu long before there was BJJ. We're talking over 2000 years before. Nobody is better at Jujutsu "The true JJ" than the Japanese. The only reason Gracie JJ is popular is because they started up the UFC. Their win loss record is not that impressive. Rickson is the only Gracie worth a crap. Royce did okay... The rest, some skill... Suck ass at striking, good grappling but the muscle isn't there very much. If anything, the Machado's are better than the Gracie's are and the Japanese are definitely better the best.
Nice documentary, I train BJJ at Gracie Humaita, Royler Gracie’s brand. I wish I would have started earlier in my life. People debate fight styles all the time, there will never be one style of fighting that is king for every situation or person. If your ego could take it, I would recommend everyone at least try a few classes at a good Jiu Jitsu gym, you will be humbled every time. Especially all of the tough guys out there, go get some 😈
I used to admire all of them growing up. Then i trained for a decade and had a few run ins with gracies at tournaments. Almost every single time there was some issue because they didnt get their way and they deserved respect and they didnt have to follow all the rules.
This is a masterpiece. Beautiful dicpiction of how the past. Connects us with today and why its so important. As far as Martial Arts and Fighting at its puriest form.
How the hell don't you have more views, i watched the whole thing and didnt even realise the view count was so low. i tought it was around 100K-600K. Anyway, the editing was perfect!

they repackage Jiu jitsu and called it BJJ, they did a great marketing campain thouth,....plus, so much talent but also so afraid of losing, always asking for special rules when a dangerous opponent appears
You cant give this video such an outlandish name like this! They are not anywhere near even being considered in the conversation for the "worlds most dangerous family" haha
Gracie’s won the Lottery of Most Men Bred into this life. Kin to having every Gracie in a political position in all aspects. Their legacy will go on until man and machine jointed together. They can pump out men like crazy.
A family that wouldn't let bushidokan fighters go take the challenge even when it first was offered, which think it was at 20k and several fighters from bushidokan would be rejected. What i remember is they asked what did they study, i think when bushidokan fighters said judo an ground fighting they rejected them, if i remember steve stillwell tried and bunch others tried and rejected.
The rigged early UFCs, the Pedro Sauer/Lance Batchelor hoax match and of course the Gracie Challenges scamtapes were essentially the equivalent of say Twix cherrypicking people whom they know beforehand have a candybar bias towards Twix, challenge Mars, Snickers, Bounty etc. to a "favorite taste competition' (knowing beforehand they would win due to the earlier cherrypicking of participants) ... put it all on tape ... then sell, sell, sell ... that's pretty much the Gracie legacy in a nutshell ...
LMFAO Dominated pride! :D Sakuraba exposed the Gracie's and made fools of them. Bas called out Rickson but he stayed in hiding. Unfortunately Rickson never fought anybody good not even in Brazil. I think Mario Sperry, Sperry or Pedro Rizzo could've taken him.
They stole judo and Called it jiu Jitsu lol bowing and gis don’t come from Brazil it’s Japanese and all the moves and submissions have been around for hundreds of years before yet they get the credit lol. And jigoro kano send judoka around to challenge people all around the world to show the power of judo.

The only way the Gracie family beat Sakuraba was by waiting until the end of his career when he had signs of brain damage, Royce used steroids and then Sakuraba fought a man half his age. Pretty poor way to "redeem" your name.
