Royce Gracie no apelara la suspension

Loretta Hunt de The Fight Network publica la razon por la cual Royce no apelara la suspension de un año impuesta por la CSAC a causa de salir positvo en esteroides.

“I did not appeal the decision because I have been in Spain for the last 1 ½ [months] on vacation with my family, and for me to appeal, I would have to get a lawyer, and then get some experts to run tests and then get more experts to argue with their experts, or I can just pay $2500 fine, and sit out for one year,” Gracie wrote. “Well, I fight once a year anyway and it’s much cheaper to pay $2500 in fine then $10,000 retainer to attorney’s alone. As for my fans, those who believe me, believe me anyway, and those who don’t, does not matter what I do, or what I say, they will not believe anyway.”

A Royce siempre se le ha conocido como una persona muy sana, pero en lugar de aclarar la situacion da una excusa un poco rara, viniendo de alguien que definitivamente tiene los medios para pagar abogados.
