Part of me wants to say “Josh should have been promoted to a higher rank”, but… I know from firsthand experience how BJJ belt rank politics work. For I too was once a “competition blue belt” … for 10 years.

Bottom line is those are not white belt level skills but he’s not sandbagging since he’s in the open 🤷🏻‍♂️

video was awesome. love the fact that josh didn't use anything super fancy, just very well understood and applied fundamentals.

I personally don't care what belt he is if he's competing in the expert division. His understanding of inside control from bottom is crazy for a white belt though. Combine that with the preshhhh during the kneecut, it's hard to say dude is a true white belt. When I was a white belt I had glaring holes in my understanding-glad to see the game ✨evolving✨

People get too caught up in belts. I've seen many instances where guys had tons of grappling experience prior to entering a school that goes by a belt system. If a guy has years of judo, sambo and wrestling under his belt (no pun intended) then it's not unusually for him to be able to handle himself against high ranked belts once he enrolls at a BJJ school that makes everyone start off as white belts, no matter how advanced their actual skills are. NO white belt submits a brown belt unless they have some legitimate prior experience.

I personally have a friend who tapped brown belts in tournament as a white belt. He got his blue belt shortly after and went on to tap a bellator fighter who was also a brown belt in an open. So it definitely happens. But he was really good and naturally gifted. People may call it sandbagging.

I think of belts similar to degrees and certificates in education. If you have a PhD, it means you've spent a lot of time learning about and researching a topic. But you could also have done that as a consequence of your job or something, which usually won't yield a piece of document saying that you did the work.

I love how Jedi puts a clip of him doing well cuts, then shows Jedi getting submitted 2 seconds later

I was a white belt 3 days ago, and some people would doubt my belt too. Idk in other countries, but in Brazil, competitors in general are all very tough, even the white ones. I never lost a competition, but now that Im a blue belt I have a big chance of losing, cause Ill get guys that are holding their blue belt maybe for years, and are next to the purple. So, in general the belt doesnt mean a Lot, especially If you are a competitor, cause you will need to be better than the regular dudes. For example, I train very hard with purple, brown and Black belts, and some times I get ragdolled, but I've finished them many times as well, especially purple ones.

Love you putting the “brown belt” MMA guy in check

As a kid back in early 70s Bruce Lee was a God and I had seen all his movies by the age of 13. I learned a lot from them including sweeps, double kicks ETC. Growing up in a big city in California I also had a few street fights. When I started MA I was a few steps above most beginners. My point is this kid could be a white belt with possible wrestling experience and learned some moves from videos and ufc ETC.

Tiny story. I was training in Kempo and my partner was a white belt, about my size and a little older;we were just doing kicks and we had heavy pads but his kicks were really solid and I said, “How in the world are you a white belt?” And his reply, “Oh, I’m a black belt in 6 other styles.”

I’m a white belt in his 50 and tapped out a brown belt in his early twenties. But I only did it once.

"Competition " white belt lol

I did the exact same thing when I was a white belt but to be fair I was a good wrestler growing up so it’s a lil different I definitely wasn’t pulling guard, but I did smash out and submit 2 purple belts at a local tournament

Your honor, at 06:10 the defendant grabs the other guy's shorts. If that's not some certified white belt shenanigans, I don't know what is.

I know I’m a shitty old man white belt. I don’t need you confirming it. Love your stuff.

Bro do more videos please !

I don't know if the guy was a white belt or not, but I can't imagine that he will be a white belt very long.

If he’s a white belt then I’m a denim belt

This is why belts are dumb. In any other sport, it’s completely possible and documented that someone who is newer to the sport, more athletic, more motivated or smarter, can compete with/beat an athlete who’s been playing for longer. Same goes in jiu jitsu. Belts are literally a time served indication, not how good you actually are.

I've never been to grading and any stripes I received came off in the washing machine. Now I only train no gi, so still a white belt. I saw so many people get their purple and brown belts, that as far as I could see only got them for attending class, as they seriously lacked some basic fundamentals. That's why I didn't care what belt I was because to me it didn't matter. White Belt for LIFE!

IS JEDI BACK?!?

Not guilty by reason of… taco seasoning ad. That’s what I got

I know that this is how the sport is supposed to be, but i still think that just sitting on the ground waiting for your opponent because he can't just kick or punch you is a dishonorable strategy. Even the people from Kosen Judo didn't fight like that back then...

When is OCI ? OIL CHECK INVITATIONAL?

A week ago my teammate a real white belt was rejected to compete at white belt level and had to compete at blue level belt because judges saw his level wasn't while belt even he's a white belt.

That’s my boy Josh Rich
