That’s not crazy, that’s Gracie way. Lot of people never even noticed that Gracie family are hot temper and exclamative/reactive behaviors. I remember when Royce Gracie lost his fight with Hidehiko Yoshida in one of the PrideFC, the whole Gracie team jumped in the ring and created a heavy turmoil with Royler raising his hands like he was ready to start an altercation with anyone.

I also remember when Royce won his UFC fight vs Kimo, right after his victory, his team jumped in the octadon and I remember seeing Helio, YES Helio yelling words to Kimo,s staff. Luckily nobody cared on Kimo’s team. Let alone Renzo and his altercation out of a nightclub (‘cant remember the whole story).

And I havent mention other family members who were involve in a couple regular life troubles.

But what exactly happened?

Here’s how Dan Lukehart explained it:

Ralph Gracie is not one to mess around with – here’s an excerpt from Ralph Gracie’s vice article entitled Pitbull politics:

“You have to understand, back then, my English probably wasn’t so good….” And then you remember the Ralph stories as they’ve piled up over his 43 years of life, in legend, in the newspapers and the back and forth that’s part of a knowable but frequently unknown confederation of Brazilian jiu jitsu (BJJ) players, MMA fighters and just general badasses, of which Ralph is all three.

Son of Robson Gracie who was son of Carlos Gracie Sr., the founder of a derivation of a Japanese martial art that’s given birth to both fight obsessives all over the world, as well as the sport most healthily identified as MMA, Ralph did something slightly different with it. He matched it to his personality.

“You have to understand,” he says, “we all grew up together. No one forced jiu jitsu on us. It just was. I mean we did other things but jiu jitsu was what we did for fun, what we did to eat…”

“But you didn’t compete when you were a kid.”

“I mean we had to fight to eat! The house was full of kids, all training. Older brothers, cousins, everybody altogether. Some days you had a good training day and we’d rush home and if you had done good that day you got more food. Or you could take it.”
