Re: UFC 61: Gracie v Hughes, whats your prediction
And another thing. I think Royce left the UFC primarily b/c of how the fights were structured. He hated that they had rounds. He wanted the whole fight to go for unlimited time until one fighter wins. Think about it...he's like a rediculous chess player setting up his opponent for the win....and it takes time.

Re: UFC 61: Gracie v Hughes, whats your prediction
When Royce was in the UFC there were no rounds. It was no time limit at first then they moved to 30 minutes with a decision.
His time in the UFC was during the tournament style shows. He fought in 4 tournaments and won 3, never lost a single fight (he bowed out of one due to injury). Then they put him in the "Superfights" and nobody could beat him there either, then he dissapeared. Not sure the history behind him leaving, it may just be that he was too dominant and fought with a "boring" style from what the crowd wanted to see in those days.
