Part of the mystique and success of the UFC is that some Black Belts have lost and lost bad while other Black Belts went on to become stars or superstars.

Sabuaka, {The guy who beat 3 Gracies including Royce) is a Black Belt in Judo.

Dean Lister, Frank Mir, Kenny Florian, BJ Penn, and Fabiano Schwaerner (sp?) are all BJJ black belts. I know there are more, but those are the ones I can think of off the top of my head.

There's an (incomplete) list of professional MMA fighters by BJJ belt rank at the following link: http://www.bjj.org/a/mma.html. Notable UFC names appearing on this list (aside from those mentioned in my previous post) include Pat Miletich, Matt Serra, Elvis Sinosic, Brandon Vera, Vitor Belfort, Anderson Silva, and Nathan Marquardt. Frank Mir is listed as a brown belt, but I think that he's since earned his BB.

chillaplata · 08-25-2006, 04:54 PM

And of course Karo Parisiyan (sp?) is a high-ranking Judo black belt (sorry to post three times, but I keep thinking of more).

**Hardball** · 08-25-2006, 07:42 PM

Please list any style Black belt in the UFC, not just BJJ

Judo holds their own also and so did the wrestlers.

And here we go again, with hOmoPlata repeating his same old routine of worshipping at the altar of the great god gracie on the one hand and making comments that reveal his sexual insecurities on the other.

The same old song and dance over and over and over...
