Yea, thanks, I read his “explanation “ since clearly everyone was like wtf. Seems like dumbass just didn’t have a gi or a belt so they let him use a loaner and didn’t have a brown belt, just grab whatever belt off the rack. Of course he has to lie on JRE and then back down later lol > On the most recent Fight Companion podcast, I mentioned that I wore a white belt at the Gracie Academy for a few weeks when I first arrived, even though I was already a brown belt in BJJ. My miscommunication on the issue caused some people, including Joe Rogan and Bryan Callen, to think I was demoted by my in source, 2023 ↗

That is amazing. This is how BJJ was when I lived in the Tampa Bay area of Florida. I'm sure it's the same in Los Angeles and New York City. Actually, Los Angeles probably has this many Judo clubs in a short distance of each other. source, 2022 ↗

I am Los Angeles California, and do BJJ Point being I am in a city with a lot of hot women I also am currently in a relationship, and yes I still roll with women, because grappling isn't sexual, I am trying to choke someone until they submit or crush them with weight until they have no energy left so I can pass guard and choke them until they submit or lose consciousness My aim, my endgoal doesn't change because the breast tissue on the person I am rolling with is more supple. I'm still trying to choke someone or rip off an appendage. source, 2022 ↗

I train at a well known academy in Los Angeles (I only mention that to give context), that has produced multiple world champions, UFC Champions, etc. We have many gay & lesbian students & I can honestly say I’ve never seen or heard a single derogatory statement or people refraining from rolling, etc. They are all well liked, well respected, normal students like the rest of us. We’ve all gotten together on numerous occasions outside class for food / drinks, to watch UFC, etc & their S/O’s always joined & it was a complete non-issue.

That’s how the Machado owned gyms and Gracie Academy gyms run warmups too. In fact, they are generally friendly with Eddie Bravo. Idk where the whole 10PJJ vs BJJ rivalry outside Los Angeles started. In the city they are all usually chill when I trained with ‘em. source, 2022 ↗

My favorite story of this era is how after founding Shooto. Satoru Sayama saw the first UFC event and went "Damn, I got do this myself". He organized the Vale Tudo Open Japan tournament in 1994, he tried to get Royce Gracie but instead got something even better: his older brother Rickson, the so-called "Champion" of the Gracie family. Royce won trhough the UFC with his jiu-jitsu grappling skills. Rickson didn't even need them, he could just throw you into the ground and ground-and-pound the fuck out of you, he smashed through the Vale Tudo Japan '94 and became a big figure in the combat sport source, 2022 ↗
