The Ultimate Fighting Championship is paying tribute to its first star.



UFC officials recently announced the promotion is planning to release "UFC: Ultimate Royce Gracie" on May 10.



Available on DVD and Blu-ray, the two-disc tribute to the UFC Hall of Fame member includes nearly six hours of content.



Gracie (14-2-3 MMA, 12-1-1 UFC) ushered in a new era in martial arts with his performances in the early days of the UFC. The grappling ace rattled off 11 consecutive submissions to open his career, and an event expected to serve as a one-time jiu-jitsu showcase became a sporting phenomenon.UFC: Ultimate Royce Gracie [Blu-ray]UFC: Ultimate Royce Gracie [Blu-ray]



"He is the godfather," UFC president Dana White stated in an official release. "He is the man who started it all, and we all bow down and kiss the ring of Royce Gracie. He kick-started the entire sport of mixed martial arts."



"UFC: Ultimate Royce Gracie" includes his most memorable fights, as well as behind-the-scenes footage and interviews. Gracie's UFC bouts with Ken Shamrock and Kimo Leopoldo, as well as his incredible 90-minute PRIDE match with Kazushi Sakuraba, are included.



Gracie hasn't fought since a June 2007 win over Sakuraba, but he's currently pressing for a return bout at the UFC's August event in his native Brazil.



"UFC: Ultimate Royce Gracie" carries a suggested retail price of $24.98 on DVD and $34.99 on Blu-ray
