Imagine being undefeated in the UFC, holding the middle weight title of the world and being brought to tears at a purple belt promotion. Just goes to show the dedication, the journey and the effort it takes to progress in BJJ.

It always makes me humbled how emotional MMA fighters get when they get promoted in BJJ. I remember Tyron Woodley winning another UFC belt when he submitted Darren Till and he was nonchalant about it. And when his BJJ coach gave him a black belt he broke down crying in the cage. They often have more of a reaction to the BJJ belt than the world championship UFC belt. Good stuff!

I always say, for someone that has a martial arts background, specially wrestling, they go through a highway once they start training BJJ. For the other mortals, we go through every stop sign trying to learn. ENJOY YOUR JORNEY!!!! Never compare. Be happy and consistent. Remember, COMPARISON IS THE MOTHER OF UNHAPPINESS!!!

Big Kudos to coach eugene for creating this bunch of humble men and absolute killers in the ring.

Congrats! Purple belt is big step, most people don't realize what that belt means, but I sure do!

Two astounding men, a beautiful moment to witness!

Just got my brown belt, and I cried uncontrollably, and I’ve cried at each promotion, starting with my blue stripe on that worn out white belt. It’s a great feeling. Much love for this new purple belt.

Belt promotion videos never get old, I love watching them. Props to Adesanya, he's a beast!

This is the most pleasant feeling in jiu jitsu. The effort you are making is rewarded.

A purple belt from Galvao is still impressive, and more than many people who train will achieve. Respect to Izzy for trying to grow in all facets of the game.

That cry was of pain and happiness. That feel of accomplishment and being recognized when your not even expecting it
