They say 10% of new BJJ students get their blue belt and out of that 10%, only 1% get their black belt. What an accomplishment, congratulations brother. Been a pleasure digesting all the content and motivation you provide. Keep up the hustle!
thank you so much man!!!!!
Wow Im just gonna get my white belt 3rd dan and I be happy
@@leeentertainmentchannel247 3rd dan???
@@adrianprincipe2370 😆😂🤣
in Judo are the same, and from 10-20 person only 1 become coach for Judo. the 1 person is so passionate with Judo.
You're truly inspiring. Didn't know it took you 4 years just to get your blue belt. I've been training for 2 years, going on my 2nd knee surgery (torn meniscus) and seeing this motivated me to come back stronger and be an example, just like you are. Congratulations again
Tore my meniscus and it took me 4 years to get motivated enough to give BJJ another try. Recently got my blue belt! Never give up!
thanks so much man!! you keep it up too!!!!
congrats!!
Heal yourself from that knee and best of luck to you in your quest.
@@bronstet thank you
The black belt journey seems almost impossible for a guy like Jeff because his striking is so good. To achieve black belt shows a special amount of bandwidth while becoming so proficient in other aspects of fighting. They say 1 percent make it to black belt but as a striking, MMA, and Muay Thai specialist I think Jeff is in 0.01 percent of the population. Most black belts are no where near him as a striker.
thanks so much!!!
I'm a recent BJJ black belt myself. I would roll with this guy fine and then get killed if we actually fought. Multiple skills sets at that level are rare and amazing.
Congrats Jeff! Super stoked to see you as an official black belt, I've been following your journey since the beginning of this channel and I am super inspired by your content.
thank you so much Gary!
congratulation dude! you got me hooked on mma couple years ago, had a couple fights, transition to nogi bjj and im currently a purple belt on my way to blackbelt one day!
thanks man!!! keep it up bro
congrats bro. Your BJJ is legit! Nice that you embrace the Gi game even as an MMA fighter.
thank you!!!
Congratulations on your black belt Jeff, well deserved!
Also, a bit off-topic, but you are one of the very few UA-camrs who take the time to read almost every comment (and reply to so many of them) despite your very busy schedules, and for that, you have all my respect👏
thanks so much! I try to man thanks :)
Congratulations Jeff you are always a pleasure to be around and I still use the armbar grip break you showed me in Ottawa 3 years ago. Best wishes on the future of your Martial Arts journey and I look forward to training again
sweet :) thanks man keep it up!
Congratz man. Cool to see that getting ur black belt is just showing up and training with a bunch of ppl, and not an actual pass/fail test.
Thanks bro!!
Congratulations! Your reward was extremely deserved. You've played a large role in aiding me past my plateau that i had experienced in my overall MMA game. Thank you.
keep going with the vlog style!!! 🔥🔥
thanks kaiser!!!!
Congratulations! It's been a pleasure and a motivating force to follow your journey as a true martial artist.Here's to even greater heights!

Well done, Jeff! Huge accomplishment!
thank you!!!
Congratulations brother! You are one of us now!!
thank you!!!
Man I was moved watching this. So pleased for you Jeff. A true representation of what it means to be a martial artist and an inspiration. Alan
thank you!!!
Bruh I been rocking with you for years now. Happy for you my guy
thank you!!!
Congratulations Jeff!! Well deserved!! Thanks for all the inspiration and lessons over UA-cam through the years.
thanks so much man!!
I'm So IMPRESSED !!! Congratulations Jeff
thank you!!!!
beautiful words at the end. a lot of times i get discouraged when i see my peers pulling away but what you said there reminds me to focus on my own development and stay the course regardless.
congrats on your achievement!! i hope to get to where you are in another 10 years. 🙏🏾
thanks so much!!! you will!
Amazing work Jeff, this is so inspirational! The journey is long but so worth it.
congrats on the black belt achievement!
thank you!!
Congrats, Jeff! A great accomplishment!
thank you!!!
Congrats man. Currently on the BJJ path as well and it's been really inspiring to watch your journey.
thanks man!!
congratulations, Jeff, such a special achievement and inspiration for all of us!
Genuinely inspired by this video - fantastic work! I'm relatively new to martial arts in general (~1.5 years training) and sometimes I start feeling impatient with myself, questioning why I'm not an expert striker yet, why my wrestling is still in its infant stages, why I'm not yet a blue belt etc. It is extremely easy to compare myself to others all over social media, especially professional fighters, and lose patience with how long the process truly takes. The fact that you've been training BJJ for 12 years is a testament to patience - this really is a lifestyle and there isn't any shortcut to get through it all!
I hope your knee is alright as well :) Thank you for uploading all your videos and always keeping it real
thanks os much for sharing and thanks my knee is feeling better!!!
Amazing stuff Jeff, Congratulations! wishing you a speedy recovery with the knee
thank you!!
You’re very humble and kind man, keep going with the great job you are doing 💪🤜🤛
thank you!!!
CONGRATS JEFF!! Been watching you for a long time... You deserve it.

Congratulations Jeff, nothing but class.
thank you!!!
WOW what a STORY, you deserve it champ 🙌
thanks so much!!!
I got my purple belt in August . Thanks for sharing your bjj story with us ! congratulations on the black belt it's was 100 percent earned
Congrats Jeff! Been watching you since day 1 and this video brought a tear to my eye. Best of luck with the wedding and hope the knee pop wasn't too serious.
thanks man :))
my knee is better thanks for asking!!
That's awesome! You are bad ass. Congrats Jeff!
thanks man!!!
Damn, Jeff! Congratulations on both your newly acquired and hard sought after BJJ Black Belt as well as your move to New York. Years ago, my Krav Maga instructor Avital Zeisler also made the move to NY and she hasn't looked back since. It's a huge market area for martial arts and I know you'll do well there with your own academy. Congratulations again.
thanks so much!!!!!!!
People don't realize how crazy a BJJ black belt can be. This guy would destroy 99% of the black belts in BJJ in striking, and destroy 99% of the professional strikers he spars againts in grappling in his videos and with ease.
Congrats jeff, you deserve a black belt for your awesome UA-cam videos too
Congrats Jeff! But honestly, steak + rice is the most asian thing I've seen recently LOL. Greetings from Indonesia, where there's people eat fried rice with rice :))
LOL :)
👏🏾 Congratulations Jeff.
thank you!!!
best massage tool is the adorable doggy 🐕
:)
3:55 was so clean
:)
1:37: I am struggling to tell if you are either hella nervous, trying to fit in every sponsor you can in one video, or just the most goochi guy I ever seen in self care.
Either way I love it xD
Congrats on the opportunity, i Recently decided I wanted to take Ju Jitsu seriously and so far a month in on the journey, it's hella fun.
But I can tottally relate to the emotions. My TKD school was old school and made me wait ten years before I was even considered for black belt testing, I remember the day of the testing I coulden't even sleep from the excitement. By the time I did the test I felt like a zombie just going through the motions, but luckily it was just enough to pass haha.
hahahah thanks!!!
Love your content! Keep up the great work!!!
thank you so much!!
Massive congrats Jeff!! Super inspirational
thank you!!!!
You always worked with grading. My gym does the old school method, you deserve the belt, you'll get it.
Well deserved 🥋
Congratulations 👏
thank you!!
What a beast! Next time when I visit, we are doing a "Cooking with Jeff Chan" episode! haha
hahahahahah :)
Loved this! Thank you for sharing this part of your journey! Please let us know if your knee is ok.
thanks man! it is feeling better!
Congratulations again, that looks brutal! Sorry to hear about your knee, hope it's not too serious!
thanks matt!!!!!
and subscribed :)
@@MMAShredded Oh no way! Thank you! 😂
Wow many congratulations, I remember watching your channel when you first started as it would randomly pop up on my recommended, now you're one of my favourite channels. I know I'm some random guy on the Internet and this means nothing but it is truly an honour to witness your journey and to see how far you've came. Congratulations on the black belt it's a huge accomplishment and I hope to join you at the rank in a few years time if all goes well. Congratulations brother 🎉❤.
thanks so much :)))
Wow! Huge congrats to you brother! You are an inspiration to many.
thanks so much :)
Amazing video, congratulations on such an achievement! It's certainly a display of the nonstop dedication you've put in as a martial artist.
If you make a video on a specific martial art sometime in the future, I'd like to suggest one called Kuk Sool Won.
interesting ive never heard that, id love to try it!
@@MMAShredded there is no technique/contact sparring that I am aware of, but I feel the techniques have a lot of potential. If you do try it, I'd suggest a school from its native country of Korea, where the training there is most likely more traditional
A HUGE congratulations, brother! It is well deserved and very inspiring. 🙂
thanks so much!!!
Congratulations Jeff! Hope your knee is ok. As a fellow striker and now BJJ blue belt, it would be interesting to hear what the transition from striking to grappling was like for you
thanks man! I didnt like bjj as much at first but as you get better you like it more hahaha
@@MMAShredded that was my same experience! Starting to appreciate the technicality of it more now
Congrats brother !!!!! Good job!!
Thank you!!!
Conrats Jeff. Well Deserved. I attended a seminar not too long ago at my gym run by professor Nick. Wealth of knowledge and improved my game. I’m only a blue. OSS.
thanks so much man!!
Congrats @mmashredded . Now breakdown some of my Sparring & Neo Striking Cluster fighting system vids plz. Give you new tricky combos to use and highlight.
Congrats, Jeff!! And I hope you get some good treatments for that knee, we still need you running and kicking around, mate!
thank you!!!!
Congrats and amazing work! Inspirational achievement.
thank you!!!
I think we trained together back at Lin Martial Arts when you were a blue belt, and I was a white belt. Congrats on your black belt!

Any advice for a wee little white belt who doesn't feel remotely ready to take her first belt test when her coach has started asking her about it?
thank you! just listen to your coach, if he/she feels that way then they are probably right!
@@MMAShredded Thanks!
Great achievement, congratulations Jeff
thanks so much!!

Hey Jeff Chan, I know this isn't really the right video to explain this but I noticed some of your videos when people are doing judo throws you say they throw you over there shoulder? I don't mean to make you do all the work, re-edit all the videos because the videos are already awesome it's that some of the judo throws are actually hip throws so they throw you over there hip. Like when you were going against that sambo guy he got you with an under hook and performed an "O-Goshi" over his right hip. I love the videos especially the Grappling Videos, BJJ, Judo, Wrestling, I'm all for it. Keep posting, also congratulations, when I saw the community post about you getting your black belt I was waiting for the video where you talk about it and it's finally here! Keep it up you're awesome!
thanks man!!
Congratulations Jeff!!!!
Thanks man!!!
4:06 that was beautiful. Always love watching you grapple. Congratulations again
thanks so much!!
Congratulations brother🎉
thank you!!
Awesome 👍 you are one of the best martial arts youtuber!!!
thanks man!!
Congratulations to you Jeff! Keep inspiring the world. OSS! 👊🥋👏🙏
thank you man!!

Congrats Jeff! 😀👍🏽💪🏽🍻

@@MMAShredded thank you very much!🙏
Congrats Jeff!🎉

That’s wild asf you rolling after that pop in your knee💀 you earned that black belt.
Question, what gym are you training at in NYC? That’s not too far from where I’m based out of✊
Congrats Buddy ❤

congratulations man!
thank you!!
OSU!!! Congrats my brotha 🔥🥋
oss thanks bro!!
Indeed a black belt is a white belt who never gave up. Congrats Jeff!!! OSSS!!!🥋🙌🔱
:)) thanks!!
Welcome back Jeff! Just curious, do you have another day job in NYC?
thanks man! I teach at glory martial arts center!
Hey congrats on your black belt! That is dope!
This is off topic but, what do you think of kuzure kesa gatame? (broken scarf hold) Is it a good or bad position for high levels in an mma setting?
Some people tell me it's good, some people say it's bad. I can use it on white/blue belts, but I am not good enough to even get to the position against higher belts.
Jeff !! Be proud of yourself !! Celebrate !! You did it !!! As a white belt myself, I wonder if you agree with what many people say about how when you get your black belt, it feels like your journey is just starting over again, because of just how much there is to know about bjj. You think that’s true or would you say otherwise ? Oss
thank you man!!! I think im in the middle lmao. I think ive learned a lot but I think there is still a lotttt to learn
