Does Royce get to wear a gi to choke his opponents with?


I hope Matt Hughes beats him into a coma. I freakin' hate Gracie.

He can, but he doesn't always wear one now. He used to wear one all the time, but now that people are getting wise to jiu-jitsu I think he'll drop it totally.

I think Hughes has to keep the fight standing. Royce doesn't have knockout power and his standup striking is pretty shabby.

Royce otoh, has to do the opposite. Go to the ground (probably by pulling guard) and stay busy to avoid being stood up. Royce is technical enough, imo, to keep Matt in defend mode on the ground which means he'll come out ahead in the judges eyes. If this match has normal time limits, I think Royce wins by decision unless Hughes royally screws up.
