The Next Queen of MMA: Kyra Gracie

Kyra Gracie is one of the few Gracie women to achieve a black belt in BJJ and is the first Gracie female to actively compete in the sport. If you are a die hard  fan of MMA then you should know the legendary Gracie family history in this sport. Kyra, as the great granddaughter of Carlos Gracie, has finally decided to follow her family members in joining the MMA competition, starting in 2011. Kyra is currently training at the Nobre Arte gym in the Morro do Cantagalo area of Rio de Janeiro under the tutelage of boxing coach Claudio Coelho, to complement her grappling skills. Here is a video of Kyra in action that I found in Youtube:

So peeps, what do you think of her? she's pretty good grappler isn't she? she doesn't throw too many punches and she does not display lots of striking moves but her groundfigthing ability is awesome.  In my opinion, she is going to do just fine in MMA...and I'm really looking forward to see her fights in the future. Boa Sorte, Kyra, ir lá e chutar algumas bundas.
