Mark Bailey is a Lawrenceville, Georgia instructor of "Sambo-Jujitsu", a style of his own creation. In his autobiography, My Life's Fight (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1604940271/), he claims to have held the "World Fighting Championship" title twenty-seven times and to have "won over five hundred and fifty grappling fights". On his MySpace blog (http://www.myspace.com/worldsambojujitsu/) he goes even further, claiming that he is a "Proud Navy Seal" -- a claim he never mentioned in his autobiography.

For the truth behind the claims, click here. (http://www.bullshido.org/Mark_Bailey)

In his myspace blog, he claims (http://blogs.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&friendId=427231412&blogId=505457235) he "Has Yet To Turn Down Any Fight and has not lost in well over a decade!"

How about taking him up on that and seeing how well this "Grappler of The Year 2007" can fight?

Not another Sambo-JuJitsu thread!

are you sure that's not Paul McCartney?

Why is a "grappling master" wearing Adidas basketball shorts?

Why is he holding a belt that says "USA Martial Arts Hall of Fame" and not his "World Fighting Championship" belt?

This isn't too shabby, though:

According to his myspace he's been asked to coach the US National Jujitsu team. WTF is that?
