An alleged brown belt competing (and losing) as a blue belt!?! Sad indeed! Very unethical in my opinion, no matter the lay off. Not to mention no legit BJJ brown belt would wear a lower belt after being promoted. And then avoid the simple question of lineage which can be interpreted either (1) he was not promoted by a competent authority, or (2) He simply purchased a belt and slapped on some stripes. Either way, the guy appears to me to be unethical to say the least.
Theres a difference between the AGA rules and the IBJJF rules, Since I was competing when you were in diapers under AGA rules, I had a little trouble adapting to the IBJJF rules. And yes, I lost a match to a blue belt who was well versed in the ibjjf rules, I was in control the whole time and he scored points, My God man...
