Jiu-Jitsu and No gi “Jiu-Jitsu”-grappling are becoming two similar but different sports nowadays, like judo and sambo, or Greco and Freestyle wrestling, it’s super evident watching this clip
No disrespect to the competitors but why are blue belts competing here? Are there not enough black belts in the world to fill this card? And if the answer is that belts don't matter and these blue belts are as good as black belts, why not either promote them or stop organizing competitions around belts like no gi?
Because no one said that a tournament should be only for black belts. Because the main event was only for black belts. Because it is good for sport to make the new generations visible. There is nothing wrong with having a 5 hour event with 1.15 hours of colored belts. Just my opinion.
