Anyone who keeps up with GRACIEMAG.com already knew of some of the grappling matchups to feature at the UFC Fan Expo this August 27 and 28 at Boston’s Hynes Convention Center.
On the second day, the same one the UFC 118 event in the city is to take place, Rolles Gracie faces Roberto Cyborg, while Gregor, another of the Gracie family’s black belts, goes up against ADCC 2009 gold medalist Pablo Popovitch.
The news is that on the 27th former UFC fighter and Jiu-Jitsu black belt Hermes França will appear against Ryan Hall, while Penny Thomas faces Tracey Goodell.
At the Expo in Las Vegas earlier this year Hermes took on Bill Cooper. Check out how that went:
