Joe Rogan = JOKE, Eddie Bravo is a joke, Jason Chambers is laughable, all the UFC fighters that claim Eddie Bravo as their instructor=BIG JOKE. Eddie and Joe's involvement with MMA is a knee slapper.

Anybody that rolls at 10th Planet is a dork and an idiot.

In other words, all you 10th planet spammers are just pumping your own poles when you talk about Eddie as legit. Sorry for you that he fooled you into believing him. He's a joke among serious cross trained fighters.

@MrJamesbragan you are entitled to your opinions, but you get one warning, keep your comments respectful or have them deleted!

Sotiropolous got his behind kicked, Prokopos got whupped, Mitrione walloped. Help me out here, anybody from 10thplanet ever maintained a winning record? Their competition record is a little suspicious. In both BJJ and MMA.

Now if Bravo would stop opening McDojos and stop making wild claims of "inventing" shit, and stick to teaching Hollywood gayboys how to cluster fuck in the shower rooms, people would stop hatin on 10thP.

@MrJamesbragan I think 10th Planet Jiu-Jitsu is still in major development. No fighter with a certain BJJ affiliation will be undefeated. I think 10th Planet needs many more black belts to instruct because they seem pretty short-handed right now. It's too soon to see just how legit 10th Planet can be. I'll give them a few more years. It seems VERY interesting to me, personally.

You misunderstood my point about belts. If you NEVER wear bets, like at 10th Planet, what's the point of awarding belts? The only point of wearing a belt is to distinguish among the skill levels of the people wearing a gi. Without the gi, there is no point in awarding belts to distinguish people. Their record in competition (or sparring) is what sets them apart unless bravo starts awarding patches or something. It doesn't make sense to award belts to people that don't wear them.

@tkdrealselfdefense You're a disgrace to Tae Kwon Do.

[seaFoodSifu]

@underdg22 Just because they don't wear their belts doesn't mean they can't earn it. I'm from a traditional jiu-jitsu school and we have no gi classes and nobody wears their belts. Seriously man? It's not a big deal, but I'm surprised you even said that, makes me wonder how qualified you are. And again, there's only about 5 black belts, not including Eddie Bravo. Majority aren't athletic, so it's hard to say, Give it time. There are too many competitors to expect that from one new school.

@tkdrealselfdefense

If that was true, how come you see very few MMA fighters using TKD and almost every MMA fighter familiar with BJJ? The martial arts like TKD, Karate, Savate, etc that didn't have a ground component got humiliated in the first UFCs. I'd go so far as to say that a good high school wrestler could probably take any TKD master in a one on one fight most of the time.

@seaFoodSifu

How are they gonna get black belts if they don't have gis or wear belts? Plus, you'd think if the claims this video made were true, you'd see 10th Planet guys winning no gi grappling tournaments like Abu Dhabi, but you don't. The guys who do well in the no gi tournaments are usually the same guys who do well in gi tournaments.
