This statement is key to understanding what happened to the Gracies. In MMA dawn they had an edge: BJJ/GJJ, which enabled them to defeat their opponents. That edge is gone, and there's obviously a much greater chance of finding a gifted athlete among the big population of MMA practitioners than amidst the Gracie family, which is a relatively small group. In the end it's all about statistics
