is everyone here a bjj black belt?

Because that’s what it seems like.

Welcome to Bullshido, the best Martial Arts forum on the entire Internet, knocka. Seriously, you won’t regret your choice to join us. We’re a great bunch of folks, except for Hannibal. And Sirc. And TaiGip. And MMA Kid. And… well, you get the point.

That’s just because everyone here knows so much more than you.

Actually Bill Duff is a former Pro Football Player.

I train under 5 of them does that count?

Oh, is that so?

yes .

Darn… I only train under two.

TO answer the OP, no. Most people here are a BJJ white/Blue if they have any formal BJJ training. People with a BJJ purple belt or anyone who has a black belt in BJJ, Judo, or Kyokushin karate will all have a tag next to their user name. If they don’t, they probably arnt a blackk belt.

However, a large number of posters have grappling experience, either BJJ, Catch Wrestling, MMA, Judo newaza, etc.

When in doubt, ask. Most posters will have no problem detailing their qualifications. Speaking of which, what are yours?

Yes, please. It’s against the rules of Newbietown to flame people here, but by the same token, such a delibrately inflammatory opening thread is begging to be moved to somewhere people can roast you.

So, yes, please tell us about your experience. Also, why do you think such a patently silly thing about the forums?

Fuck BJJ.

Somewhere in Brazil, an innocent whitebelt just died cause you said that.

Why are you posting in Newbietown when you’ve been registered here for over a year?

Yeah, moved to Trollshido.

Confession: I just involuntarily started dancing to the Duff/Astley music as I read this thread.

I’m a BJJ blackbelt and a master in 5 kung fu styles. Give me your money.

Yeah we’re all BBJ Blackbelts.

Did you not read the stickies? You’re not allowed to post on these Forums unless you’ve submitted Rickson Gracie at least once.

I’m not a BJJ black belt since I don’t believe in ranks. However I’ve submitted just about everyone from the extended Gracie family, Marcelo Garcia etc. while raiding their gyms… Blindfolded and one hand behind my back.

I’ve submitted hpr, but they still won’t let me post…

Redundant.

I’m not a BJJ Blackbelt…but I did stay in a Holiday Inn Express last night.
