BJJ 101: Purple Belt Test

[@MatthewMessmer-me5ji]

Love these videos. It's also great to see a father train his son. Nothing more important than having a quality father like you

[@ColoradoVictoryMMA]

Thank you

[@atylerpearce]

Your blue belt test with you guys helped me prep for my blue belt test. Thank you. Crazy to see he got purple already!

[@ColoradoVictoryMMA]

He got his blue belt close to 4 years ago. With all of his competition and fight wins he was ready

[@atylerpearce]

@@ColoradoVictoryMMA oh… YT is just weird with the dates then. I hope to be there someday!!!

[@curtissrobinson5581]

Keep training great fighters. Glad to see you are personally involved with your student (I typically have an assistant to help so I can watch but you get respect for being in there.)

[@ColoradoVictoryMMA]

Thank you, I test everybody personally.

[@ramondejesus4409]

Video saved! Appreciate for filming it Sir!

[@ColoradoVictoryMMA]

You are very welcome

[@AdamVassGal]

That vice grip to darce is pretty nasty. We have several guys on my team that are amazing at that transition and I’m trying to work on it. Appreciate the video.

[@ColoradoVictoryMMA]

Thank you for your feedback. I agree it is a good move!

[@falkhammermuller9342]

This is nice to see. I hope Elija has enjoyed his journey so far. Keep going. (y)

[@ColoradoVictoryMMA]

Thank you so much! We are pushing forward!

[@tededo]

I havent even watched all of it. I recorded it to my files, will re-watch it several times, for my purple belt pre.. I love what I see here, cause not very many instructors give away for free their belt testing curriculum. You've got a pretty decent purple belt in this young man.

[@ColoradoVictoryMMA]

Thank you

[@chysontelles-petri6328]

Really like your video of the test and your son is getting good in Jiu Jitsu! Forget the naysayers about testing, it’s good to see demonstrations instead of gold medals. Excellent!

[@ColoradoVictoryMMA]

Thank you, I truly appreciate your kind words

[@mammothair132]

Thank you that is so true you need some stand-up before you can take someone to the ground or defend someone train yourself before you take someone to the ground

[@ColoradoVictoryMMA]

I'm glad we agree on this

[@goobtron]

That doesn't look like a purple belt...

[@eb3279]

He's your son!??! Awesome!!!! Mine joined me for the first time at boxing last weekend. I was so proud of him for nailing me in the head with an unexpected overhand right. Just to torture him, I keep telling him that if I win, I win, and if he wins, I win as a daddy, so I win no matter what. That drives him nuts. 🙂

[@ColoradoVictoryMMA]

@@eb3279 I totally agree with you! 😂

[@jackjack4412]

Great video, thanks for the upload.

[@ColoradoVictoryMMA]

You are welcome

[@moremoney2264]

gotta work on that mount game. oss

[@johnwilson8828]

Great video man! Love from pa

[@ColoradoVictoryMMA]

@@johnwilson8828 thank you

[@domi8242]

very interesting seeing a gym do belt test

[@ColoradoVictoryMMA]

I think it is a good tool to actually see where a person is at and not just toss someone a belt just because.

[@ianbowden7912]

Great video 👍

[@ColoradoVictoryMMA]

Thank you

[@michaelswann9849]

Solid technique

[@ColoradoVictoryMMA]

Thank you

[@-Saigo-]

Who'd you get your Black Belt from, Professor?

[@ColoradoVictoryMMA]

@@-Saigo- Professor Iako Kalili

[@timothyotoole8224]

great job

[@ColoradoVictoryMMA]

Thank you

[@martinandreasson8409]

This is great! You seem to have a wonderful relationship. I hope I can do BJJ with my 2 year old in some years 🙏. Greetings from Sweden!

[@ColoradoVictoryMMA]

Thank you brother

[@bdnbdn2055]

Breathe homie, it's just a camera 😂 congrats!

[@ColoradoVictoryMMA]

Yea, camera adds an extra layer of pressure

[@Bruce-nd8by]

4year White belt here I would be a purple belt if I took your test 😅

[@ColoradoVictoryMMA]

You would be a purple by just your time on the mat.

[@ekinuyar]

Man I should be a purple belt too...

[@ColoradoVictoryMMA]

@@ekinuyar that’s between you and your professor

[@ekinuyar]

@@ColoradoVictoryMMA that’s right and I trust him. It’s better to get it late than early.

[@moremoney2264]

Gotta work on them side mount escapes too my boy. Skip the most basic one regaurding

[@ColoradoVictoryMMA]

Appreciate your advice

[@sk8pd316]

Do you pay for the test

[@ColoradoVictoryMMA]

@@sk8pd316 I do not charge for test.

[@Dustin-y4q]

Don't know about this...not looking smooth...of course it will come with time... needs to flow... relax into all moves.. would of waited 6 or more months... can't be handing out belts just for likes...

[@ColoradoVictoryMMA]

Ok, let's use our brains. I know that might be difficult for you but do you think he earned his belt by this video. Or maybe he has training, rolling, and competing for the last 3 years as a blue belt. The hardest thing to do is be tested in front of a camera for everybody to see. However, do yourself a favor and google, KZbin, and/or instagram Elijah Smith and see everything he has accomplished!

[@Dustin-y4q]

@@ColoradoVictoryMMA watch a Roy Dean purple belt test then understand... you'll see smooth and real rolling... doing tournaments... never means your ready...it just means your wasting money... Remember... I didn't see anything smooth about his ability...3 yrs 🤨🤨🤨he should flow from one move to another... just another fight club asking for likes...

[@ColoradoVictoryMMA]

@@Dustin-y4q the funny part is likes does nothing for me. My page gets paid off viewership so thanks for watching. As far as your opinion, I pretty much wipe my ass with it as I count my dollars from your viewership time. However, I would respect you more if you post a video of your purple belt test, instead of running mouth and being an internet troll

[@Dustin-y4q]

@@ColoradoVictoryMMA just like a fight club... rude and unprofessional... it's my opinion... and I know more than most... with nothing to prove... but I'm willing to travel...🤔🤔🤔🦍🦍🦍

[@MatthewMessmer-me5ji]

You're being a jerk about this. Even if you disagree with the promotion, there are more mature ways to express it@@Dustin-y4q

[@andrei642]

sorry, but that's not technique worthy of a purple belt. He should have been very proficient in basic moves, yet he was still stumbling in armbars or arm triangles. I'd say he was closer to white belt than purple belt.

[@Lift_these]

Awesome! God Bless you guys. It’s awesome seeing a warrior Father and Warrior son, spending quality time….. Uhoos 🫡

[@ColoradoVictoryMMA]

Thank you
