The street argument is retarded. BJJ is so much overkill for the street that its ridiculous. Unless you're the idiot that picks a fight with the high school wrestling team, barring knife or gun play, the opponent shouldn't make it past double leg + ground and pound - Osiris -

All Kickboxing in the UK has belt systems. Is that not the case in America?

Nope AFAIK, which is why it kinda raises eyebrows.

Ah I see. I think pretty much all Kickboxing and even some Thai Boxing gyms have grading systems. The Thai schools use coloured arm bands.

So a black belt in bjj, judo or kyokushin (just to name a few) don't mean anything unless the person wearing it has earned a champ belt or medal in competition?
