Lol.. Got Black at 10 years and have been training for almost 17 years. I get out of most altercations with a hand shake and a smile.. And the guys i train do the same..
Dig420 is right, it is very hard to get! When i used to teach seminars in BJJ, i would line a room up 30-60 people and submit one after the other and all of the school studs would be last. Studs would be 250lbs and up wrestlers. This would be in Oklahoma. Never a problem and i always expected it. EZ! lol.
This had to be done at every seminar. Why??? Because nobody will listen to what you have to say or teach unless you tap them out. People were paying back then about $100-$150 per person.
The most i have ever tapped out was at a Chuck Norris seminar. My instructors Rigan Machado, Jean-Jaq Machado, John Machado and we had 400 in vegas. 4 endless lines, 3 hours strait. Dont really know how many i tapped, people kept jumping lines. lol. Was an honor for me and a great time. How many people can say they Railed 400 Chuck Norris Black Belts..lol.. And Yes Chuck is a BB in BJJ, a legitimate one!!
It sounds prety much like bullshit, but when you see me or any other black belt do it, its impressive. But at that level its easy as pie.. I have done it to 30 blues and purples blind folded, one after the other. lol..
The blindfold thing is funny as shit. because the trick is, i know everybody is going for my back and once i put one hand on them it becomes a feel thing, second nature. I love BJJ and its still fun for me. I have 2 stripes on my black belt and have never bothered to put them on. Why? its already black..lol
My biggest Honer wasn't making UFC champions, but was helping Rigan Machado teach Danny Inosanto BJJ from white to Black. Guru Dan he is called. The only man in the world who was authorized by Bruce Lee to teach "JKD". That man wore white and trained 3 days a week, like clock work for 6 years before he got black. WOW! So much respect for him. I never submitted him in free training. you just dont submit a legend like that. He is 65 years old now and i still go down to Santa Monica 4 times a year to Wrestle with him. I still loose to him. lol
What am i doing here? right? lol. I got disillusioned with training pro mma fighters 6 years ago and decieded to kinda sell my soul and get into porn. I put my time in as i did in BJJ and got really good at photography and adult video direction. I shoot for pimp roll and and a few other companies. i also do pickup shoots for AMA JOE. I work a lot!!
I make way more money in porn than i could even imagine from training fighters or fighting pro. I still train and BJJ is fun again.
All of my buddies know i can fight but have not even the slightest idea what i really can do. and thats cool with me because i always hated that alfa male tough guy attitude!
I will Be in AZ for the show i would love to meet all of you guys.
And if i come off as a tough guy, im sorry. thats not me, im just giving out factual information that i know a bunch of you want to hear.
