Caveman = Dave Jackson is white belt and doesn't want a belt yet is 3-0 in MMA

I agree with Ryan, he doesnt care what BB or Green belt taught a guy he just likes to compete David Serano sp? who taught him, I don't know if he has a belt or not or if it even matters.

I am proud of my belt, and the fact that the BB that gave it to me thought I was one. He is the only one who has to. I trained with Caveman in MMA and JJ and he dont care what belt a man is just how the man fights. A good man once told me as long as you tie a belt around your waist you will care what level it is, I believe this to be true. For example, you train 7 years and your still a blue belt, it may bother you your teacher thinks you are only blue level... etc.

But Caveman really doesnt like Grappling tourneys but has done the last two Bud events and lost only 2-0 against the heavy Pro winner Marc laimons Brown Belt "Country" who is very tough.

Also this year won all matchs in ADV. Super Heavy and Heavy weights tired out in the finals for the Heavy that went last. He will be doing the Bud World Cup Jan 14th and 15th.

Belts are a sign of respect to ones academy, but the rest is on the mat.
