Is it really that big of a suprise that he lost?

Gracie is a legend and a hell of a fighter but it's time for him to hang it up IMO. He hasn't been at the top of his game for awhile now.

How long did it go and how did Hughes win? Hughes is a fucking beast.

Yeah, not really surprising at all.. Hughes is a beast.. And UFC wasn't nearly as tough back then.. People didn't know how to fight back then, so Gracie could just take advantage of them.

Was Royce allowed to wear his Gui or however its spelled?

He didn't wear it .. not sure if he wasn't allowed to or if he just didn't want to. The gui is a bad thing to have on with someone who knows submissions cause they can get a better grip on cloth than on sweety skin.

Ehhh I dont know about that. Back then was tougher, multiple fights, no weight classes, no time limits... Did you ever catch them back in the day?

Ref stopped it. Gracie fought through one hell of an arm breaking arm bar. but hughes mounted him from the rear and went all out on gracies dome.
Gracies don't tap! They would rather just have the arm just break. I think the only guy ever to tap a gracie is Eddie Bravo.

Melvin Guillard had the smackdown of the night. That dudes started convulsing after the KO. Sakuraba made Royce quit in his corner after a long battle, he did not tap, he just didnt come out for the next round.
