Awarding Blackbelts

[Brent Smith]

Eddie still gets his degrees from JJM, but I don't think JJM follows IBJJF regs, it's probably pretty similar though

I can't remember, does Eddie add degrees?

Yes

You could also always just put one on and then claim your instructor botched it and Carlinhos demanded 2K.

LOL this totally threw me off, made me stop and wonder how I got on the Atama BJJ forum.

At the end of the day, we all know what we are shows both on the mats and how we lead our lives off. That being said, I'm glad we don't follow IBJJF for alot of things

Or Sherdog. Or Bullshido. LOL. Sorry to bring the topic on here, this forum is usually free of drama and I don't mean to insert any.

I saw a YouTube vid the other day where Jean jacques talked about how Rickson stepped up to givem his red/black belt when carlinho didn't. All I remember thinking was "hahaha who the f**k is gonna question Rickson"
