46 year old with no striking? Yep, this is a terrible idea.

I love Renzo, but he's delusional if he thinks he can beat anyone short of maybe the worst guys at 155 in the UFC at this point.  

I'm hard pressed to think of anyone I would favor Renzo against.

I'd pay decent money to see BJ Penn vs Renzo Gracie II at 155 lbs.

People are crazy if they think Penn doesn't stop Renzo in like a minute.

Renzo rules...he's a guy that isn't about if he wins or loses, just enjoy watching him fight.

I would hope BJ would rather fight someone who wasn't 46 years old. How bout Renzo vs Melvin? It would be an early night for one of them.

I'd watch Renzo Gracie vs B.J. Penn 2 , Khabib Nurmagomedov vs Evan Dunham would also be a great fight.

He's too old, put him in there with a C-level guy he could win, but ok let's see what he's got.

Renzo responds to Dana asking why he'd even want to fight again in this story.

Highlight:
A reference to his wrinkly (or weirdly not) nutsack and a quote from Nietzche in the same story … only Renzo Gracie :))))

Renzo Gracie may fight again, but he will never be back. He isn't even top 20 at WW or LW and never will be again.
