With one million five hundred and fifty thousand points, Joe Kerr is the site's first Camo belt!








Congrats! Now that the weekly and quarterly competitions have big fat prizes, Joe Kerr is building a huge lead in points.

And if you thought we would just sit on our asses with 5th, 8th, and 13th degree red belts, you thought wrong.  Any crazy belt of any kind could emerge at any time.

If you have belt requests you can make them. No guarantees, but interesting ideas will be considered.

Any cool idea to tie in the belt buckle from the last dragon?

"The man formerly known as Leroy’s Master later informs Leroy that he needed a charm on his journey and that the medallion is actually plain old belt buckle that a true master would use to hold up his pants"

Maybe combine that with Mr. Miyagi's take on belts?

Daniel: Hey, what kind of belt do you have?

Miyagi: Canvas. JC Penney, $3.98. You like?

Daniel: [laughs] No, I meant...

Miyagi: In Okinawa, belt mean no need rope to hold up pants.

[laughs; then, seriously]

Miyagi: Daniel-san...

[taps his head]

Miyagi: Karate here.

[taps his heart]

Miyagi: Karate here.

[points to his belt]

Miyagi: Karate never here. Understand


EDIT:  I forgot to congratulate Joe!  Congrats Joe!

Swagged-out tween ********* belt ? I was thinking it looks more like a beer-can-redneck-let's-go-*******- hunting belt.

Seriously tho, looks cool, I like it, grats...

An actual UFC belt would be cool but not sure how the image would work out being that small.

Or you know maybe one of these belts would be cool too!

I personally don't like the non MMA related belts. I think having some cool wacky belts is fun but it should stay MMA related. Like when I first saw the Spider belt I was like *** how stupid but then I realized what it was representing and I was ok with it.

This belt should be renamed the Cowboy or Cerrone belt to save face

@Griffy, I'm pretty sure gold would either look yellow or snot-brownish on the site :)

@curt there will be more MMA themed ones, but there simply aren't any more "real" belts to choose from in terms of the normal jiu jitsu progression.  For those people that have a gazillion points like Joe Kerr and Poir, I think it's fine that there are strange and unusual belts to come.  Most of us will never get to those belts and will remain black, coral, or maybe red.
