Josh Barnett's MMA future remains uncertain, but his grappling present is in cruise control. The former UFC heavyweight champion is two-for-two in Metamoris competition after submitting Ryron Gracie at Metamoris 6 on Saturday night in California.
The bout started with hand fighting and searches for collar tie set-ups, but a snapdown from Barnett got things going on the mat. Gracie was able to maintain half guard even after being passed occasionally, He even secured full guard for a time despite giving up 60 pounds. Barnett was able to pass, however, after faking a knee cut and then changing directions.
