Guillard Fires Back at Gracie for View on Jackson

Melvin
Guillard, on “Beatdown,”
responding to Cesar
Gracie’s opinion that Greg Jackson is more of a coordinator or
motivational speaker than a great coach:
“Cesar Gracie can suck our nuts. That’s what he can do. He’s jealous of the guy. I’ll tell you like this: If coach Greg wasn’t as great a coach, you wouldn’t have guys like Andrei Arlovski, guys coming from all over the world to train here. Just like I ended up coming way up here to train. Obviously he’s doing something right. For someone to sit there and say, ‘Oh, he’s just a director. He’s in there just to direct.’ [Jackson] is there every day. He spends his whole day at the gym with us instead of his family. He’s there teaching us hands on every morning and every afternoon. So for someone to sit there and say that … they really should take a look at themselves and ask themselves what kind of person they are. … Maybe Cesar Gracie should just go back to Brazil. We don’t really need him in the U.S. We already got enough people here anyway.”
