Re: UFC 61: Gracie v Hughes, whats your prediction
I think its going to be a better match then most people think.. Hughes' weakness is submissions, something that Royce is very good at. While he is no slouch in jiu jitsu, he doesnt even come close to a gracie..
Gracie's weakness is his striking, however he has improved alot if you take a look at his last fight (rematch against the judo guy). that being said, Hughes is not a striker.. hes a wrestler, he wont be able to take advantage of Gracie's big weakness.
yes gracie is old, but he still should not be underestimated.. it will be close (although i still think hughes will probably win)
