Would make more sense if he subbed a few blackbelts in BJJ
Look at your question and you will find the answer. He got the black belt because hes been training 13 years. This was just a perfect chance to present it to him publicly after submitting a professional fighter on live tv. Im sure they could have waited until he fights a bjj black belt but why wait?He's doing bjj 13 years so he earned his blackbelt, great.
....by subbing a muay thai fighter?

Who says that's how he earned it? Maybe they just wanted to surprise him because they knew it would mean a lot. Never had a late surprise party?He's doing bjj 13 years so he earned his blackbelt, great.

Black incorporates all colors symbolizing depth of one's understanding and knowledge on the subject, in this case BJJ.Anyone ever wondered why the belt has to be "black"?
Hmm...

White is the absence of all colors symbolizing that one knows little to nothing on the subject.
That's also why as you advance the belts get darker symbolizing the absorption of the information and knowledge.

Don't think anyone said he automatically gets oneSo because Woodley is black, he automatically gets a black belt? Is that what you're saying?

Is that how you got yours?
This is correct.Completely false lol but it is funny though.
In Judo Karate and other sports where they wear gi's their belt would get darker with time as they use it.
So it symbolizes how much time the person has put into the sport for example if the belt was bright white the person was new, if it was very dirty/black it meant the person had put in a lot of hours.
That's why it's black.
That sounds totally true but I just repeated what I was told by my kenpo instructor years ago. Eventually there had to be some reason why purple, brown, blue, etc were Incorporated into the scheme of things. I don't think any amount of dirt or dust will turn a white belt bright blue.Completely false lol but it is funny though.
