Nama Gracie ini identik dengan MMA, dan yang sebagian besar sebagian untuk Royce Gracie, orang yang dianggap telah menciptakan olahraga seperti yang kita kenal sekarang. Pemenang pertama beberapa acara UFC, Gracie akan membongkar beberapa lawan dalam satu malam, banyak di antaranya yang jauh lebih besar daripada dia. For many years there was no answer for the Gracie Jiu-Jitsu technique that he brought into a fight, hari ini, sulit untuk menemukan seorang pejuang MMA yang belum terlatih dalam seni jiu-jitsu. Februari lalu, Gracie defeated Ken Shamrock in a record-shattering fight that was witnessed on Spike by over 3.5 juta pemirsa.
Having first fought in the sport almost twenty years ago, very few men have a more legendary resume than Wanderlei Silva, who was recently signed to a Bellator MMA contract. “The Axe Murderer” is a Pride and UFC veteran, who brings an intimidating and imposing presence with him every time he steps into the cage. Silva hopes of adding to an already-impressive list of wins that include: Guy Mezger, Dan Henderson, Kazushi Sakuraba, Ricardo Arona, Kazuyuki Fujita, Michael Bisping, Cung Le, Brian Stann and Quinton “Rampage” Jackson (2x).
