Rickson Gracie

Rickson Gracie (pronounced Hickson) is one of the best fighters in the world. He is one of the seven sons of Helio Gracie and is simply the best of his brothers. At twenty, Rickson’s career began with a victory over the 230 pound Brazilian brawler Zulu, who maintained an undefeated record of 140-0. To this day Rickson maintains over a 400-0-0 record. He is a master of Gracie Jiu-Jitsu and has never lost a tournament match. His fights include professional MMA (mixed martial arts) fights in PrideFC and Vale Tudo fighting championships. Many people have tried to beat him, but he always comes up on top with his superior submission skills. He is now over 40 years old and is too old to continue competing in MMA fights. However, he is still teaching the art to his students at the Rickson Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Academy. Rickson will remain a fighting legend throughout history.
