Rickson Gracie has had an open challenge that would allow anyone who wants to fight him to come to his dojo and fight him. Bas Rutten and Marco Ruas have both made public challenges to Rickson Gracie on many occasions. During the time these two fighters made their challenges they both had martial arts schools that were practically in the same area as Rickson Gracie's academy . Why is it that neither Bas Rutten or Marco Ruas have gone to Rickson's Academy to fight?

Probably because they are smart enough to look to actually get paid to fight.

I've never been convinced by Rickson. He only ever fought cans, and I'm not sure how well his BJJ even translated to MMA. It took him a long time to finish some of those bums for such a skilled grappler.

Why does it matter how long it took? Thats Rickson's game, his methodicalness is what made him great. The time it takes to finish someone is not a good measure of that persons talent, the fact that he did finish every one of his opponents shows how well his BJJ translated.

you should get banned just for pure ignorace...not to mention fighter bashing... those were the times were royce was kicking *** in the UFC, well, Rickson was way way way better than Rickson, VALE TUDO JAPAN had the best fighters of the time (at least the ones that wanted to get in there)
choke is a pretty good documental you can watch, so you dont look like an id.ot...
(sorry mods, but I cannot stand oxymorons coming here and just insulting fighters just because they dont know who they were)

All of Rickson's brothers and all of the guys who have ever rolled with him say they have never felt so dominated on the mat. Proof enough for his grappling abilities, his modern day MMA abilities could very well be questioned though, he would get destroyed by any decent wrestler.

This is a massive overreaction. In no way did I bash or insult Rickson. I know who he is and his about his legacy as a peerless BJJ player. You're just too close to the situation.
