Roger Gracie vs. Yuki Kondo at Sengoku II
Posted by Adam MorganWorld Victory Road has finally come up with an opponent for Roger Gracie after numerous names, including Hidehiko Yoshida, had been thrown around as potential opponents for Gracie. According to Sherdog, the promotion announced today that three-time King of Pancrase Yuki Kondo will face Gracie at Sengoku II on May 18 in Japan.
Gracie is widely considered to be the best pure grappler in the world and did the unthinkable by submitting all eight of his opponents at the 2005 ADCCs, including Fabricio Werdum, Shinya Aoki, and Ronaldo Jacare.

JJG should be excited!
didnt JJG say he would never return to this site (for like the 5th time), he should be super excited cuz here come the 19th generation of the Gracies
seriously will be nice to see this fight……..
what out world!!!!!!!! HERE COME DA GRACIE’S!!!!!
still no JJG to tell us how great the Gracie’s are going to be, and Gracie is just going to destroy this guy, the lack of JJG being here upsets me
hahahahaha owell
Not going to lie, I am on the gracie train as well although I am a little more reserved then JJG but after the last year or so watching a lot of clips on You(control my free time)tube I think Roger might do ok. He seems physical enough to hold up in full contact. After doing some research on Kondo it will be interesting to see how Kondo shows up as well.
I’m on board as well, but maybe I’m just a bit more realistic. This new generation is going to be fun to watch.
And damn, I really think Jacare is going to be a mma star as well.
Definitely some interesting stuff happening in Japan.
japan is going to be rather interesting yet i already has been entertaining for me so far, Dream has been providing a bunch of good fights and i hope that they continue to grow and become stronger
slimm…
Dream 1 and 2 were freaking awesome, can’t wait for 3 this weekend.
I’m with you on this one!
Hey dudes, my BJJ coach is Roger Gracie, he is the best, he will never lse, did you guys see his fight against Ron Waterman
