Congrats on the win especially in a bigget show fir a pro debut!!

Terrence has joined a very short list of guys who have fought pro mma and who are also pro poker players.

Maybe 3-5 total.

Myself fought in kotc, total comabt 170 champ, also vale tudo matches

Rami boukai bjj blackbelt, fought uriah faber, in kotc, Super nice guy at table too btw

Twin brothers from canada also one fought prifessionally i believe.

Welcome to the small club terrence.

That was a good fight with some adversity... Makes your first pro win that much better!

You think I was trying to insult him? I know what it takes to get a blue belt, purple, and black in BBJ and what it takes to get other belts in other martial arts. I was just saying he has the belt right after beginner belt (white).......so novice.

So I was going more along the line of beginner, novice, intermediate, and expert. No insult intended.

Nice job TC... though I would hardly call your opponent a "BJJ expert". The guy looked straight up terrible on the ground. I have no clue why he wasn't backing out of your guard and instead decided to leave those gangly limbs all over the place. But still, nice transition to the arm bar.
