So it turns out that ZUFFA terminated the Gracie Academy's YouTube account due to copyright infringement...
Im guessing ZUFFA didnt like them using actual video footage of the subs and what not...
This my friends has pissed me OFF! These guys are promoting the UFC big time and only say the utmost positive remarks towards Zuffa.
Here's the story:

I'm in completely agreement with you there. It wouldn't take much to NOT use the clips, but I definitely think the little clips they use are very illustrative.
f---ing Zuffa! Where would the UFC be without the Gracie family?? It's not as though they were showing entire fights, they were showing like 2-3 second clips, pretty much what you see in a GIF. Hopefully they get another account set up & don't use clips of the actual fight from now on.

yea man... sux.... IM guessing they keep their same YouTube page and just start not using the vids in their breakdowns
Everyone relax, it has more to do with the legal system set up around copyright infringement than it does with any personal opinions that ZUFFA might have on this particular usage.
If you don't protect your copyrighted material when used without permission, you run the risk of losing that copyright protection.
Consider:
1) Some party infringes on your copyright and you don't do anything about it because maybe you like how they are using it.
2) Another party also starts infringing on your copyrighted material and you go after them. They could conceivably and legally try to use your lack of pursuit of the other party as a defense to copyright infringement.
ZUFFA is just acting within the legal framework to protect their property. It's just the way it is.

just because it's legal to act like an a--hole, doesn't mean you should

I totally understand Zuffa's stance per say... I think they might have been able to just ask them to refrain first... Unless we dont know the backround behind it and they have...
Im more pissed just thinking that they will stop doing the breakdowns... and that is what I dont want to happen
This happens, it may come back, not saying it will .......
Seems to be a bit of an outcry going on over at the UFC channel:
UnblockedOne2 (4 minutes ago) Spam Marked as spam The GracieAcademy situation was deliberate.
You can see they've removed the Gracie videos from this channel, as if fearing retaliation.

And that has what to do with this thread??

Just saying that the move nor the gracie breakdown isn't the epic wonder move that everyone is making it out to be. BJJ is for guys who want to think their tough and fighters but are too much of a p---- to get hit.

This is literally one of the most ignorant comments I've read in a while, and that includes PersianPride's posts.

Again... what is your point? We all already know all this. I know when I saw AS pull off the Triangle on the brink of defeat, I thought.. "look at that fukkin p----! Only a coward would choke him out right there! A REAL man... A REAL fighter, he'd have powered his way to the feet and knocked his mofo *** out!"
When Maia violently flipped Sonnen to the floor and effortlessly transitioned to a triangle choke, I thought " Pffft! Who the f can't do that?! Be a real man and stand in the pocket and trade with this guy, Maia! BJJ is for GIRLS!"
Funniest of all, though, is when Randleman suplexed Fedor on his head and 30 seconds later was crying uncle.. I thought " Why are YOU crying, Randleman?? You're a MAN! This Fedor clown didn't have the nuts to get back up and fight you like a man! Instead he transitioned to a Kimura like a freaking WOMAN! HE should be the one crying, not YOU!"
But, anyways, you can't be serious. You're not serious, right?
