Although he is approaching his 50th birthday, MMA legend and UFC Hall Of Famer Royce Gracie is apparently not ready to call it quits just yet.

Gracie (15-2-3), who last fought at Bellator 149, defeating fellow MMA legend and UFC Hall Of Famer Ken Shamrock via first-round TKO back in February, recently told Brazilian MMA outlet Combate that he is not ready to call it a career yet.

“Man, I’m trying to leave this game,” Gracie said. “I’m not retired. I’m on a break, but it’s hard to quit, because I like to fight. When you like something, it’s not work, it’s a pleasure. Everyone wants to fight me. It’s a long list. That’s good, it shows there’s demand. I’ll face whoever the promotion puts in front of me. I never picked an opponent. “

As Gracie continued, he revealed that he is specifically interested in potential fights with former UFC Lightweight Champion Sean Sherk, former UFC Champion and UFC Hall Of Famer Dan Severn and martial arts legend Don “The Dragon” Wilson.

“I heard it’s a long list,” Gracie said. “Sean Sherk, Dan Severn, Don “The Dragon” Wilson, everyone wants to fight me. The old guys are showing up.”

Royce Gracie Open To Fights With Sean Sherk & Dan Severn

Throughout the years, we’ve seen time and time again how hard it is for mixed martial artists to walk away from the fight game.

Throughout the years, we’ve seen time and time again how hard it is for mixed martial artists to walk away from the fight game.

For 49-year-old mixed martial arts (MMA) and Brazilian jiu-jitsu (BJJ) legend Royce Gracie, it appears to be even harder.

The fighting pioneer returned to action last February in the main event of Bellator 149 to score a highly controversial TKO victory over fellow ageing veteran Ken Shamrock. Gracie got the victory after a long time away from the sport, but his performance didn’t necessarily make any fight fans want to see him compete again.

According to Gracie, however, he will most definitely compete again, telling Combate that he’s ‘not retired’:

“Man, I’m trying to leave this game,” Gracie said. “I’m not retired. I’m on a break, but it’s hard to quit, because I like to fight. When you like something, it’s not work, it’s a pleasure. Everyone wants to fight me. It’s a long list. That’s good, it shows there’s demand. I’ll face whoever the promotion puts in front of me. I never picked an opponent.”

As far as potential opponents go, Gracie claims that a list of fighting legends have expressed interest in fighting him. The Brazilian specifically noted UFC veterans Sean “The Muscle Shark” Sherk and Dan Severn as possible options:

“I heard it’s a long list,” Gracie said. “Sean Sherk, Dan Severn, Don “The Dragon” Wilson, everyone wants to fight me. The old guys are showing up.”

Despite his historic legacy, do you have any interest in seeing Gracie fight again?

Before the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) took over the majority of MMA, the world’s foremost promotion had some serious competition in the form of PRIDE FC.

The Japan-based mixed martial arts (MMA) organization offered combat sports in its truest form before it became mainstream on the heels of Zuffa’s massive efforts. In 2007, PRIDE was actually absorbed by UFC.

Nonetheless, the promotion was the launching pad to countless MMA legends, champions, physical dynamos, and more. It gave us transcendent combat stars like “The Last Emperor,” “Minotauro,” and “The Axe Murderer.” If not for PRIDE, some of these historic figures would have never burst onto the international scene.

To celebrate the past and pay tribute to PRIDE, we take a look back at the 10 best fights in organizational history. Enjoy.

At times, the promotion has avoided making obvious matchups in favor of more lucrative options. Other times, they’ve scrambled to find replacement fighters on just a few weeks, or days, notice.

The UFC has juggled this sometimes erratic scheduling fairly well, but has experienced a few hiccups along the way.
