Word from Royce GracieAfter his setback on UFC 60 Royce released the following statement for his fans:’I would like to thank all the fans that were supporting me for this fight against Matt Hughes. I want to thank 15,000 plus fans that showed up at the Staple Center and really made me feel welcome and hundreds of thousands that purchased the PPV. I am very disapointed about the outcome of the fight. I did not train to fight like that and want to appologize to the fans who expected more. Matt Hughes is a great champion and he was the better man that night, I give him all the credit. He was very humble in his victory and that shows a true champion. I am going to take a little time off from training and spend with the family. BUT I WILL BE BACK TO FIGHTHTING BEFORE THEN END OF THE YEAR. Thank you again for your support.’ Royce Gracie Leo Vieira Seminar in San Diego, Ca – 2 times ADCC World Champion, BJJ World Champion, Budo Challenge and LA Sub-X champion Leo Vieira will be conducting a seminar in San Diego.
