Video: With these skills, will Neiman Gracie make it 8-0 at Bellator 198?


In just one week, Bellator takes MMA’s center stage, and famed grappler Neiman Gracie is part of that Bellator 198 lineup.

Gracie (7-0 MMA, 5-0 BMMA) looks for a perfect 8-0 start to his MMA career – and a 6-0 Bellator run – when he meets welterweight Javier Torres (10-3 MMA, 0-0 BMMA).

Ahead of the main-card bout, which airs next Saturday on Paramount from Allstate Arena in Rosemont, Ill., check out the 29-year-old Brazilian’s highlight reel above.

The great-grandson of Carlos Gracie and UFC Hall of Famer Royce Gracie’s great-nephew knows his last name is synonymous with jiu-jitsu. And though his pro record shows six submission wins and no knockout victories, he’s perfectly content with that fact.

“I’m super happy with my career,” Gracie told MMAjunkie. “I’m happy with the way it’s going, and I’m very happy that I’m able to finish my fights via submission. I’d rather finish them via submission than knockout.”

In the video above, you can see Gracie submit the likes of Zak Bucia, Dave Marfone and Rudy Bears.
