My teacher Soca gave me my black belt today. (Saturday) It has been a long journey and I have finally arrived. I've been training Brazilian Jiu-jitsu for over 8 years. To me, obtaining a black belt brings the art to full circle. I will continue to train just as hard as I have been and will strive to the top. Thank you to all my training partners and teachers, especially Soca for believing in me! I only hope to make you all proud next week and bring home victory! I will keep this fire in me burning. My time is now!

lol.
Eliot Marshall: Bader won. Like I said in the episode, I'm not going to make any excuses. It's my job to be able to deal with when somebody's doing that. It's not his job to change up his tactics.

Congrats to Nover, great accomplishment.
I always love to read how long it takes them to attain that goal.

Is he as good as DW says? I can’t tell from just the fights on TUF.

No, but he could become very good.
And he looks so appreciative of the honor to even be a black belt. He’s a good egg.
