I was rolling with Karl Roach last week and he was wearing a blue belt and rolling like a blue belt.

Yes, he's a blue belt. Karl owns me. I practically have to do the guys laundry.

I know.

I'm pretty sure I read in irish fighter that Josie Murrey got his purple belt in Brazil. Two more blue belts I can think of round these parts are Paddy Carmody and Thomas Maguire from Kerry.

Alan Lowry got his purple belt from Roger Gracie on the 13/12/2006. Well deserved

I think this means we have reached 100 irish blue belts, well done guys.
Of course we would have reached it a bit quicker if it wasn't for some sand-baggin mo-fo's, *cough* CLIVE "sandbaggin white belt" STAUNTON *cough*

scottydog

Guys, i am a man of peace and reserve, of a tranquil mindset and deep contemplation!:D

I am also a soul of rapidly advancing years, of greying locks and struggles with the ravages of gravity but i did get my blue belt last november...:p

so can i join that illustrious list now cos im feeling lonely here:mad:

The Shane

Yeah, Clive!

Unless we claim that the only reason he beats me is outmuscling. I think he'd like that.

Shane, The

Clive

Jim, Jim, Jim - you appear to be confused about sandbagging. If I may quote Wikipedia (which we all know is never wrong):

In Grappling sandbagging refers to a competitor who misrepresents his skill level in order to gain easy victories over less-skilled opponents.

Ergo, myself, being a white belt, vis-a-vis BJJ, but competing as a blue belt, leads us inexorably to the conclusion that I do not partake in such, and concordantly, am a sandUNbagger. ERGO!

Not to worry I got the full whipping in class. Thanks to Shidoshi Kavanagh for years of instruction, coaching, and most of all patience!

Thanks too to all the guys at the gym.

Clive you forgot to update scotty. also Congrats, now i wont feel so bad when you tap me, i was sick of tapping to a white belt . Well deserved Clive

Shidoshi Kavanagh

Clive.. I'm pretty sure JK isn't a Bujinkan instructor which is what the title "shidoshi" means (its not used outside that art). Perhaps you meant "sensei"?

Anyway, carry on with your lists.

I'm pretty sure clive already knows where shidoshi comes from.

Seriously apart from incurring the wrath of the ninja fraternity, congratulations Clive, long long overdue blue belt in fact I thought you were one until the above post.

Speaking of ninjas will have some priceless footage of some ninja training up on youtube in the next few days.
