Anderson: “Gracie’s time is past”
Anderson: “Gracie’s time is past” :: TATAME
Pointed as the best pound for pound MMA fighter of the world, Anderson Silva commented the fight between Rousimar Palhares and Dan Henderson, that ended with the unanimous decision victory for the former Pride champion. “I didn’t see the fight, but everybody said that Den Henderson was very superior, as I was expecting. Toquinho (Palhares) is very young, has a lot of thing to go through in the sport and it was a good experience”, said the UFC middleweight champion, that doesn’t believe that only BJJ can bring the fighter to victory in the octagon.
“You have to train everything… People are wrong about MMA. The time when the Gracie’s supremacy was total, when Jiu-Jitsu was the most important, but Gracie’s time is past. That thing about the weak fights the strongest, everybody knows something, avoid the ground, defend a leg-lock, nobody is fool nowadays”, analyzed Anderson. “But who is Andeson Silva to say about it, it happens… It could be the opposite, he could have catch his foot and finish him, but isn’t easy, that guy needs to be respected and Toquinho hasn’t much experience to fight him”, said Anderson to TATAME.com.

Anderson's a class act and is completely right about it, i love the Gracie family, but you can't be just a good BJJ guy anymore

Royce, Rousimar and sooner or later Roger Gomes, are proving Anderson right.

Roger Gracie seems to have some potential, as does Daniel Gracie, we'll see though

I find it strange that Roger goes by the name "Gracie" when he fights, his real last name/father's name is Gomes, his second name is Gracie, after his mom.
Some strange self-promotion.

Yes, but that's not why I posted it.
I posted it because if anyone knows what he is talking about, it is the #1 P4P fighter. It's one thing to hear it from a good fighter, it's another to hear it from the king.
It would have more influence on fans and such.

Yeah, I know, you're just stating your opinion. Which is good, else it would end up like a brainless, boring dump in here.

Exactly, I think people are forgetting that. Jacare trains with Xtreme Couture so he is obviously being pushed to the limit. The only one with chance of beating Jacare in the GP is Mousasi.
