Kyra Gracie: Judoka?

News that BJJ black belt Kyra Gracie is training judo in an attempt to make the 2012 Olympics has been received by a chorus of alternating "No way!" "Way!" in the online bjj forumsphere. My take is pretty straightforward: Kyra Gracie is going to be almost unstoppable in the gi after three or four years of training for the Brazilian Olympic judo team whether or not she actually makes the team.
