Roger Gracie is a retired mixed martial arts fighter (MMA) and former professional jiu-jitsu athlete, who is widely regarded as one of the sport’s Greatest Of All Time (GOAT), a reputation conquered on the mats and solidified by his ten (10) International Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Federation (IBJJF) World Championship titles as a black belt – four (4) more in the colored belt divisions. One of Gracie’s trademarks was his willingness to commit to the submission, being also one of the most accurate submission specialists at the highest level of grappling of all time.
