Back in the day, Royler Gracie ( Gracie Humaita ) was one of the Gracie family's most fiercest competitors. Unafraid to test himself against all challenges, Royler would often fight in the open class to evaluate his jiu jitsu against others. Normally competing at 154 lbs in this main event super fight of the Copa Pele event, Royler squares off against the very tough and much heavier opponent, Leo Dalla. Royler completely dominated Dalla, who normally competed in the super pesado division, demonstrating to the world how potent the Gracie Family's style of jiu-jitsu was still in sport jiu-jitsu. Royler Gracie is the son of Gracie jiu jitsu Grandmaster Helio Gracie and a legend in jiu jitsu and submission wrestling of his own merit, having been the first “King of BJJ’s Featherweight Division” setting the record of world championships at the time. Royler Gracie also ventured in mixed martial arts (MMA) ending his career in 2006, and excelled as a coach, leading the Gracie Humaitá academy in Rio de Janeiro, developing fighters like “Megaton” Dias, Alexandre Ribeiro, Omar Salum, Renato Barreto and many others. In 2010 Royler moved to San Diego, California (USA) where he opened his own academy. Leonardo Dalla, commonly known as Leo Dalla, is a Brazilian jiu jitsu black belt under Master Jorge Pereira, known as one of the top super-heavyweight competitors during the 1990’s. Dalla is also revered for his coaching prowess, having developed several black belts, including the well known Maryland grappler Lloyd Irvin.
