Rorion is in another world though. He's been far-and-away the most commercialized and business-centric of the Gracies. I'm sure he's very wealthy for it, but there have also been strains on his relationship with the famil as well.
Thanks for the rundown man. I knew it was something about Rorion & Rickson, and Helio & Carlos but I didn't know the reasons.

Rickson would have made the other guys in the UFC look like kids. Royce ranks what, like 8th in the Gracies practicing today?
