Roger Gracie

Roger made his mixed martial arts debut by arm barring Ron Waterman in a little over 3 minutes. Some people think he'll be the next big thing.

roger is the best grappler in the world. ron waterman is a very tough opponent for his first fight, ron is 275 lbs of muscle and an experienced fighter, not an easy opponent for your first fight.

Roger weighs like 220, so he's big for a Gracie. And man, does he look white. I've read the Gracie's have Scottish heritage.

gracie is a scottish name, and roger is white, not like rickson or royce

I suppose his name is pronounced "Ha-jer."

Has Ron fought Tim Silvia yet? Silvia's a good 265lbs., how do you think he'd measure up against him?
