Thoughts: The Eddie Bravo vs. Royler Gracie bout was worth every penny. I wish there was no time limit in that match so it could play out. Eddie had Royler in some serious trouble a few times (Electric Chair/Vaporizer) and when the buzzer sounded at the 20-minute mark he had Royler in a seriously compromised position and had been cranking on a foot lock for a number of minutes. Royler was not going to tap though and I’m sure he was probably in pain from Eddie’s submission attempts more than once in this bout. It was a back and forth match though with plenty of sweeps from both competitors. If it were a points match, Bravo would have taken it.

Eddie said after the fight: “No one survives The Vaporizer. He wouldn’t tap. I tried but he would not tap.”

Royler said after the fight: “I’m 48-years-old. … I do this because I love it. Eddie, if it’s not you, I’m not going to be here today. I don’t like to tap. He created a very good opportunity, I’m not going to lie to you guys. I did better than our last fight.”
