Why Getting a BJJ Black Belt Didn’t Require Discipline

Why Getting a BJJ Black Belt Didn’t Require Discipline

From Chewjitsu

August 3, 2026

Today we've got a short BJJ question from a guy named Brandon.

He says "Chewy, what's your unpopular opinion about BJJ"

I don't know if this is an unpopular one, but it may go against some people perceptions of Jiu-Jitsu. It's also contrary to something a lot of BJJ coaches talk about with their students.

Hopefully you enjoy the video.

Thanks for watching.

It's a mess, I know.

My goal is to build the most comprehensive BJJ encyclopedia anywhere — but good, accurate data is genuinely hard to come by. Records, gyms, belts and nationalities are pieced together from public and community sources, so some of it is incomplete, outdated, or flat-out wrong.

That's where you come in. If you spot something off, tell me and I'll fix it — every correction makes this better for everyone. This website wouldn't be possible without the community.
