What do you guys think of someone who has done only GI for two years (blue belt) , enters a tournament does both gi and no gi . Enters the tournament at a intermediate level for gi and beginner level for no gi . Your thoughts ? A guy I roll with did this ... I thought it was lame ...He got kicked out of the no gi cause he RNC the first three people he faced , the ref thought he was sandbagging so threw him out ....I think gi or no gi it should be how long you trained not what belt you are or if you done one more than the other ...Oh yea I should also say that I saw a Blackbelt from Brazil who had won the Mundials that year enter as a intermediate in a no gi tournament cause he wanted the prize money ....This was inSept 2002 in New Jersey at the United Grappling Assoc tournament . Thoughts..
