Remember the foundation he build 2 years ago for kids to train free and give them somthing else to do besides child labor ? (Kids in his village start working at 7y.o in the farm)

Now less of 2 years later (gym closed 8 months due to covid) they have 3 blue belts, baunch of Grey belts and 150 kids registers

Kids are J-J-JJJACKED wtf

They are super talented also, here a sparring before lockdown (6 months of training in the vid)


And the Random White Guy is Sam Crook the head coach, a british BJJ black belt who is volounteer in cameroun to train for free. Was a 1 year mission, decided to stay in cameroun untill he promotes black belt students.


Forget about the Dagestani, Cameroon is taking over in couple of years.

To help, Sam Crook has PayPal for the daily gym needs (soap, water, foods for the kids..) in his instagram

Martial arts have always been very popular in African countries. Judo and Karate gyms are everywhere and usually state sponsored. Africa has produced many Judo and Karate world champions, Kenya won a Judo Olympic gold medal in Tokyo.

In 10-20 years, I think Africa is going to be competing with Russia and Brazil when it comes to producing the best international talent.

I don’t know if street fights are against forum rules, but here’s a quick video of African’s using Judo in street fights:

 
Actually I do know what to say..

What is the level of coaching these kids are getting? The UFC built a PI in China. State of the art facilities. And it’s “graduates” are routinely getting smoked in the UFC, or on DWCS.

You don’t just train people, and hand them artificial accolades like “belts”. Especially from sub par trainers, and coaches. And say we got us a gym full of future UFC champs. The Chinese prospects all appear to be able to take vast amounts of punishment. But, they are getting smoked even at the DWCS level. And these are actually professional fighters with winning records. But who have they actually beaten?

It sounds cool and all, but to expect any of these kids to actually make the UFC, let alone become a contender or even crazier, a future UFC champion is insane.

A “lab of next gen super fighters”?

lol
 
by 2050 Africa is expected to have 2.5 billion people, it's going to change a lot about the world and you can assume there will be neguses dominating the ufc.
