I have a feeling that if the referee hadn't stopped it, Royce would have fought to the death.

Wow.. I never saw this, and never saw Gracie be totally dominated from the start.

Gracie has no bones. He is made entirely of rubber.

Matt Hughes willingly released the lock because he was certain he'd broken Royce's arm, but knew he wouldn't submit. So he punched his face in.

This fight breaks my heart every time I watch it. Don't know why I expected the outcome to be anything other than this. Gracie was a king before his techniques and the basics of BJJ became required reading for every aspiring MMA fighter. And also before he was forty years old, I guess. While watching this I was hoping he would get his ass handled for the whole fight and pull some sneaky shit out at the end like he did with Severn at UFC 4, then Matt Hughes broke my hope's arm, and then he punched it in the head very hard.

MAY MY TEARS FOREVER BE ON YOUR CONSCIENCE, MATT HUGHES! I'M GLAD THAT GUY ON TEAM SERRA POOPED IN THE BACK OF YOUR TOILET ON THE ULTIMATE FIGHTER!

Ground domination.

this fight makes my eyes hurt

All these fighters are going to have serious dementia issues from brain trauma by the time they are 45.
