Rolles Gracie and the UFC


Would there be anything cooler than a Gracie winning the UFC heavyweight title?

Rolles speaks of arrival at UFC
The MMA world is small. Although my fights were in China, there were good repercussions here in the USA. There were always talks with the UFC, since my agent has a great relationship with Dana (White) and Joe Silva. The UFC thought the time had come to hire me, and I’m glad I’m in," said Rolles, who teaches Jiu-Jitsu in New Jersey.

Rolles first fight in the UFC is against Mostafa Al-Turk in February.
