Awesome old footage of a great fighter. (I don't want to give away who's in it. You have to see it for yourself)

He still got those crazy flexible legs back then.

LOL he was stuck to that guy like glue i love BJJ

It says the white belt is BJ Penn, a professional MMA fighter.

Yes B.J Penn hes a great fighter...quickest American to achieve black belt in Brazilian jiu jitsu and the first non Brazilian to win the BJJ world championship.....he may be a white belt in judo but he is one of the best BJJ guys in the world....

Artist not the art? Jees, I would feel no shame in losing to a BJJ Blackbelt who also has taken some Tae Kwon Do in a Tae Kwon Do competition. (And, as we can see, the effects are only doubled with a grappling art like Judo)

nice he must have left them scratching their head

Well, that proves my point to my students about not looking at the color of belt the opponent wears. Everyone is different in testing, or they could have a bad day or an extremely good day. The funny thing is, if I went to a Judo tournament... it would be as a white belt also cause I am not ranked in Judo, even though jiu-jitsu has throws, sweeps, etc it is still not a Judo ranking.

Ha! BJ is a freak! I think he was actually a purple belt in BJJ at the time this happened. Still impressive.

Reminds me of the time when I went to my first TKD club and it was sparring day some green/blue belts were like all acting hard**** on me and on me (this is when i was like ages ago) and we sparred and with 2 san da combos in a row the coach stopped the fight cuz they got wasted

I'm not saying (ok I am ), the results of your past fights aren't interesting,
but why not post some information on San Shou/Chinese Kickboxing instead.

Yea, that first post looked a little arrogant so I was just messing with ya.
Usually the 47MartialMan would have, but he's not here anymore.

As I said in your introduction post,
Pleased to meet Ya!!

San Da/San Shou does sound interesting and I would like to hear more,
maybe in the "Muay Thai / Kickboxing" or "Other Martial Arts" forum catagories.

One sweet fight that judo guys sucks.
