Royce Gracie returns to UFC

Now this is something that a lot of people will be looking forward to!

Story:
At 39, the godfather of Brazilian jiu-jitsu is held in almost mythical reverence by fans and fighters alike.

His resume and reputation are unrivalled in the sport.

So why would someone with seemingly nothing left to prove jump back in the cage?

"A lot of people are telling me I can't hang with the new guys in the UFC," the soft-spoken Gracie, who will take on welterweight champ Matt Hughes in a non-title bout May 27, told the Sun.
