Those black belts are wicked dangerous, the only black belts I've ever rolled with are Rener and Ryron Gracie and I'm like a little girl to them. They can beat most people using nothing but their legs. You won't get past their open guard and they'll snap you up into a triangle so fast you can't even see it coming.

for the guy talking about running into a BJJ guy in an alley... well it can happen but most of the guys I train with are very nice guys and like me aren't looking for trouble. Some of them won't go out of their way to avoid it though.
Thanks it took me 26 months to get it because of injuries but well worth it. You are so right when you speak of the little guys who are black belts they are danger as hell size does NOT MATTER there. Most people in my class are mellow and fight to learn not to hurt people. My only downfall when i get a choke put on me i dont tap. I have been put out over 20 times this year.
