β€œI shoot better than I fight.” 🎯😳

When UFC legend and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu pioneer Royce Gracie says that, you know Carlos Machado is going to have some questions!

In Episode 32 of Coffee Time with Carlos Machado, Royce and Carlos share a surprising conversation about shooting sports, accuracy, and an incredible family story.

Carlos remembers their cousin Roberto Maia, a skilled marksman who once thought he was missing his shots at the rangeβ€”only to discover that multiple rounds were hitting nearly the same spot.

Royce shares his own experiences and why he enjoys shooting at steel targets.

Sometimes the best Coffee Time conversations take you completely outside the world of Jiu-Jitsu. πŸ˜‚β˜•

Episode 32 with Royce Gracie is OUT NOW!

It's a mess, I know.

My goal is to build the most comprehensive BJJ encyclopedia anywhere β€” but good, accurate data is genuinely hard to come by. Records, gyms, belts and nationalities are pieced together from public and community sources, so some of it is incomplete, outdated, or flat-out wrong.

That's where you come in. If you spot something off, tell me and I'll fix it β€” every correction makes this better for everyone. This website wouldn't be possible without the community.
