Judo which is kinda a modernized TJJ has fared well against BJJ in NHB.... and I know a few gracies have black belts in Judo. Also, don't forget, BJJ is just TJJ made for a very small person in one-on-one fights..... Helio couldn't do the TJJ throws because he was too small, so he made some crazy groundwork.

hmm..thanks for the info...i had no idea...
