Legend 2 Legend with Burt Watson, Episode 7: Royce and Renzo Gracie

As the former UFC event coordinator, Burt Watson has seen it all. A beloved figure among fighters past and present, he can tell stories nobody else can. What can we say? He’s a legend.

That’s why he’s got this show, “Legend 2 Legend,” an MMA Junkie feature where Burt and another legend shoot the breeze and peel back the curtain – at least just a little bit.

In Episode 7, Burt sits down with UFC Hall of Famer Royce Gracie and legend Renzo Gracie as they discuss:

  • The Gracie philosophy and Gracie system of Brazilian jiu-jitsu
  • The the Gracie family’s creation of “ultimate fighting” (UFC)
  • The significance of Royce Gracie winning UFC 1
  • Renzo Gracie’s contribution to MMA
  • Their worst and greatest moments of their careers
  • And more!

You can watch the full episode in the video above.
