Trevor Prangley on Roger Gracie: “He’s never really been hit and I’m going to put it on him”

Strikeforce veteran, Trevor Prangley has been giving his thoughts on his upcoming clash with Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu legend, Roger Gracie this weekend at Strikeforce: San Jose in San Jose, California, explaining the submission master has never really been hit, something he plans on changing very soon.
Speaking via at Strikeforce.com, Prangley said:

“(Roger Gracie) has been on the world stage in jiu-jitsu so many times that I don’t think (my fighting experience) will be as big of an advantage as people might think.But Roger’s never really been hit, and I’m going to put it on him.”

“I just intend to not give him the opportunity to get a submission. I’m going to win this fight, and I have to win it because it’s a “do or die” situation for me. Roger’s really early in his career, so a loss for him won’t be that devastating, but for me it’s devastating. And so I’m not going to allow it to happen. So the fans can expect a win from me.”

Prangley has not seen action since September when he picked up a split decision win over Keith Jardine at Shark Fights 13. The veteran holds notable wins over the likes of Chael Sonnen, Travis Lutter and Matt Horwich. Gracie was last seen in mixed martial arts action in May when he defeated former UFC heavyweight champion, Kevin Randleman via second round rear-naked choke. He also holds wins over Yuki Kondo and Ron Waterman.
