He also fights out of Alliance Training Center, which is no longer affiliated with that sack of shit Lloyd Irvin, maybe his new coaches are more focused on rounding out his overall game than focusing promoting him up the Jiu Jitsu ranks. I still taking Vinny down is suicide, but it makes for an interesting fight.
I see your point but every town has fat old blue belts that could barely tap a keg. I can tap some blue belts, I dont know what a 10th planet blue belt would feel like but just the fact that I can tap any blue belt make me feel like davs should be higher ranked.
