    Carlson Gracie dies at 72

    Today the Jiu-Jitsu community mourns as Master Carlson Gracie passed away today in Chicago. As of this morning the cause was not yet totally cleared up by doctors of his death. Gracie had been suffering from prostate gland problems and at the time he went into the hospital there were stones in his kidney.

    Today Gracie student Stephan Bonnar will jump on MMAWeekly Radio and pay tribute to his teacher as he talks about who he was, what he meant to Bonnar's career and more. Bonnar will be on live at 9am Pacific/12 Noon eastern at www.mmaweeklyradio.com

    Many others are sending their thoughts about Gracie. American Top Team sent this note along "We at American Top Team would like to send our condolences to the family of the great Carlson Gracie. Master Carlson was a great mentor and instructor to many of the American Top Team black belts including Head instructor Ricardo Liborio.

    Without Master Carlson Gracie, American Top Team could not exist and the sport of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu would not be what it is today. Rest in peace Master Carlson Gracie, you will be missed."
