Saya telah menghabiskan banyak waktu mempelajari sistem peringkat yang berbeda. Sistem pangkat tampaknya merupakan konsep modern yang dimulai oleh Dr. Jigaro Kano, seorang pendidik, yang menginginkan sistem penilaian untuk memisahkan siswa.

Pada November 12, 1993 at the McNichols Sports Arena in Denver, Colorado, a fourth degree black belt in the little known art of Gracie Jiu-Jitsu (commonly called Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in the United States) cut through an eight man style versus style martial arts tournament.
