I wouldn't say Royce was the weakest Gracie.I'd say it's Caesar.Good trainer ,but defianetly not one of the better Gracies.

3)pedro rizzo- he never faced good competion and it showed when he went topride he got smashed on.
4)ken slamcock- thats obivous you alredy know he overrated.
5)gomi- he still hasnt proved to me that he not that good. penn smashd on him and i just dont think he is that good.

so what do you guys think of this? and whats your top 5 overrated? | Randy Couture is a 2 time HW and LHW champ.
Frank Shamrock in no way should be at number 2.he's a good fighter
Pedro Rizzo has KOed Vernon White,Tank Abbott,Tra Telligman,Dan Severn,Josh Barnett,andAndrei Arlovski.He's fought and beat some good fighters he won a descions against Ricco Rodriguez and Mark Coleman.He's beat some top guys and he used to rearange his opponents faces with his KO punches.He had some wars with Randy Couture.How could you not like him?Just watch some of his fights
Ken maybe over rated.
Gomi???  Takanori "The Fireball Kid" Gomi???I may be stealing this from Kemo ,but it defiantely applys in this situation.

I dissagree with Royce neing the weakest Gracie, IMO he was the #2 Gracie all along. Rickson being #1, look at what Sak did to all fo the Gracies he fought, Royce gave him the best match as it took 1.5 hrs to end and it certainly looked like Sak tapped from the Guillotuine but regardless, Sak dominated the otehr Gracies and was nowhere near danger in any of those fights except the Royce fight. I never bought the whole Gracie family saying we sent our weakest fighter to prove a point, they knew he was #2 the entire time.

Haha Gomi is DEFINITELY not overrated. He has been ripping it up in the LW division - his loss to Aurelio was unfortunate, but look at how Ishida manhandled Aurelio...Auerlio isn't very good either.
I'd say Randy Couture is kind of overrated, not as much as say Pedro Rizzo, Arlovski, and Slyvia (well he's not rated very high is he). Shamrock is pretty overrated but he was there from day one with Royce so gotta give him credit for being part of the development of the sport.
Murlio Ninja was pretty overrated before the Kang fight.
