BJJ Black Belt Throws Down With Striking Skeptic

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu has exploded into a worldwide sensation, alongside the successfully exponential rise of the sport of mixed martial arts over the years. With new things comes new people, skeptics and hopefuls alike.

A 23-year-old man recently opened his mind to the concept by facing a black belt of the acclaimed martial art. Initially doubting the effectiveness of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, the man faced off against the black belt.

The black belt quickly took the man to the ground, snagging a rear-naked choke for a submission. After resetting for another round, the black belt faced a takedown to the man, but quickly pulled in his guard and landed a triangle choke over his opponent.

In the end, it would appear that the black belt may have opened another mind to the martial art of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Convinced or not, the 23-year-old individual seems to have received the short end of the spar turned grappling match.
