Ep 265 Ralph Gracie Career Drive 

Ralph Gracie joins us to discuss the Wild West days of what will later become Mixed Martial Arts. 

Ralph Gracie black belt and BJJ pioneer Allan “Gumby” Marques joins us as we take a look into the life and career of a man that generally does NOT do interviews. 

This one took almost a year to land and is well worth the wait.
