BJJ Black belt Alex Vamos of Vamos Bros MMA on Long Island, New York checks into Alan Belcher MMA Club on the Mississippi Gulf Coast in Biloxi. Mikey Triangles does not let his class know who Alex is. Alex is disguised as a white belt with an 8 month background in kung-fu and smashes everyone.

"they grappled a lot at his kung-fu school" lmao
sign me up
@@lucasb9693 called itself "Shodokan with thai boxing". The lack of practice with a fully resisting opponent (real sparring) is very limiting. There was a tiny bit of sparring but mostly it was hours of kicking pads or xrays, or practicing combinations solo. Same for my previous karate dojo when I was a kid. And belt promotions were a lot different than BJJ, it was all about how many classes you'd attended as opposed to actual learning.
@Ernest Changatrio Well that's Shotokan. Probably the best standard variety of karate. If I had to pick one thing I'd pick a pistol and two would be BJJ, but Shotokan would be three. Too bad I have time for only two.
There are four common styles of wrestling in China, so it true for some Kung-fu school. lol
But no style has comprehensive ground fighting technique (Maybe it's because tatami has not been used in China since Song dynasty?). So BJJ can beat all Chinese wrestling on the ground easily. Recently, some Chinese wrestling schools have started to do ground fighting, something not seen 30 years ago. Obviously they learned something new from Jiu-jitsu or Judo.
I also took shotokan and we never spared at full force....i took alittle small circle jj when i was older and i to got my ass handed to me by relatively new fighters and i took probably 5 years of karate....definitely picked the wrong one there
The “fresh” purple belt looked so confident lol
I see I'm not alone revisiting old interesting bjj vids!
Then he got smashed and humbled!!! 😂😂
"I'm fresh to man"
Me either, I come back to this every few months 😅
First impression of that guy is that he is unsympathetic, the others ones who said something were. But yeh, could be wrong about that guy.
I know it was a prank but the moral of the story is, always give your opponent the same respect whether it be a white belt or a black belt.
Yaaa.... NO..... Lol no way in hell would a white belt be respected like a black belt. Thats all poppycock.
It depends what you mean by respect. If you mean respect as a person and sportsmanship, then sure. But it doesn't help anyone if a brown belt goes all-out against a white belt--the way they might roll against another brown belt--and just smashes them.
Ryan Harrington - Bull-hockey. Respect your opponent no matter what.
white belt. 1st day. blue belts salivating.
white belt- d1 wrestler. judo black belt. things got real.
@@bigjimmcbob9358 nah that's part of the lesson, higher belts should absolutely smash the lower ranking belts. That's how the white belt learns and develops an effective defense. It also teaches humility and humblness when being absolutely dominated by higher ranks. The white belt can learn a lot from getting worked, and you can apply what you've learned to other white belts when rolling with them.
So that's the reason why I'm always losing to white belts...there all really Black Belts 🤔
Yeah man...They prestige like in Call of Duty and their rank gets reset.
Some of the people I train with refuse to believe I'm just a no stripe white belt. They think I'm at least blue belt. I don't like rolling with them either which way, though. I roll with the higher belts, much more fun.
@@ParishedSinsNT yeah alright dude
@@davidenivan Oh no, something you doubt is real. If you can't even imagine it, it must be fake!
@@ParishedSinsNT my apologies, keep living in your own imagination.
Just imagine all of the egos that were crushed that day, lol.
So true
First thing I learned was check your ego at the door.
Not really. It would become obvious that he's not really a beginner
I didn't see any egos being crushed at all. They (largely) recognized he'd been trained and seemed pretty good natrued about having him there to roll. Lots of handshakes and hi fives :)
why is that funny gay boy jim?
This guy smurfing in white belt hell
hahahahahaha fukkin LMAO
the look on the higher belts are priceless... please prank other schools.. it was great..
They know. They can feel his muscle memory in his movements. They just wanted to trust that the teacher wasn't pranking them.
“He grappled a lot at his Kung fu school” fkn brilliant 😂😂😂
4:17 look at the guy's face, he's thinking "I can take this chump, no problem."
lol I saw that
Lol he looked arrogant. He needed to be humbled.
+Marshall Street He sure did!! I did not care for that fucking purple belt one bit especially when he was eyeing him like a shark and then looked away when he was spotted. I have seen his type before
1985hamburgler Well, I think he just was calm, wanted to take it easy etc.
He even said “I’m fresh”
I love how purples look at you like food and think: "Oh sweet, a new white belt, time to have some fun with him." Then get tapped. If a new guy tapped me easy like that I think I would need a few moments to rethink my life.
That's just how a lot of assholes are in this world.
Pussies both of you
Bjarke Olsen three of you.
@@khyoon14 Give it time and you'll be an asshole one day too lol
That looks like how the first guy feels as he's walking away... "do I really deserve this purple belt"?
The timing of Alex's left leg to pass that purple belt's guard at 4:25 is absolutely perfect...I've watched and rewatched over and over. Awesome.
it looked like dancing, this skills is only possible with a lot of practice or being in those situations a lot. i also like how he instinctively pulled away his right leg afterwards, when the guy tried to grab it with his hand. had to watch in 0.25 speed tho lol
Such a lovely man and great teacher! You can see how carefully working with the students not cousing any harm or pain. A real Master! Respect!
at 1:05 the coach can't keep himself from laughing lol! he's impressed by Vamos's acting abilities!
Absolutely love how he brings it back to mental fortitude. A lot of guys get cocky walking around with their belts. Which brings me to Anthony Pettis blue belt, tapping out newly belted Benson Henderson, black belt. LOVE IT!
Anthony Pettis got his purple belt the same day the brown belt coach in this video got his black belt, we were both under Daniel and Diego Moraes
Michael Sanford Oh wow that is really cool! A nice piece of trivia for me to chew on, thanks!
Have watched this about 10 times and can't get enough! Had the pleasure of meeting Alex and his brother this past weekend... great guys. I was impressed by Alan's school and how they took the prank in stride. You never know your opponent is or what they bring to the mat, in the end the belt is just a color and not to be taken as the gospel.
When Alex is sparring with the purple belt around 4:20, watch the absolute perfect, precise timing of his left knee at 4:26 to pass the guy's guard. It's so fucking quick and perfect...just amazing.
Insect Overlord He's a high level white belt. Someone should put a stripe on it.
He made it look so easy too. Damn.
@@dannielpreto hes a black belt, this vid was only a joke of him pretending to be a white belt. Hes actually a very seasoned black belt
@@joeblogs7727 Yes, I was being sarcastic by saying he should get a stripe on his white belt.
That was one of the least impressive moves in the whole video.
I think the purpose in his comments need to be taken in the context that they were preparing for a BJJ tournament. His point is come tournament time just because you're a brown belt doesn't mean you automatically beat a purple belt you're matched up with. If you just go through the motions you might catch yourself slipping.
Ryan Cox Being overconfident has cost countless people more than a win at a BJJ competition. The lesson is great for life, as well as competing in Martial Arts. The fact so many people are sour about the advice means they are most likely mentally weak.
Agreed. I am pretty sure he's not suggesting people just beat up on white belts
His face is so calm it looks like he's on the beach reading a book. Very fluid and controlled, great conservation of energy.
This is my professor. I’ve been at Vamos for a short while now and it’s an unbelievable atmosphere and comradery. Alex and his brother Chris vamos are the ultimate gurus. Honored to be under there wing.
man this is literally my favorite video on the Tube. I frequently come back to watch it.
The Madness thats amazing🙌🏼 i train at his school, we love professor Alex!
This has to be one of my all time favorite videos!! Priceless!
I rolled with Alex and he is a killer on a mat, definitely world class black belt
i always come back to watch this alex vamos moves are so smooth, release the unedited footage
This was a great idea..fun watch. Excellent words he shares @5:07
ALEX VS STOCKFISH 2017
Jerry commenting out of nowhere!
Agreed. Some of these guys were nonchalantly pawing at him and they paid for it.
ChessNetwork WOW U here
LOL,he was toying with those guys and still beat them easily. Impressive BJJ skills there.
one of my favorite videos on CZcams. You can feel the warrior atmosphere in that gym & everyone was humble too💪💪Oss
Haha, that was hilarious, wish I was there. Can't wait to see the rest of the footage! What an amazing way to introduce a guest instructor, I bet your little speach at the end had him booked for private lessons! Awesome video, and the guys all had good attitudes.
hahaah i love how the music turns evil when it comes time to spar
“Did this guy say he never trained before?”
“He said they grappled a lot at his kung-fu school”
I am literally wheezing
Great video! I got to do something similar when I took a business trip to Anchorage, Alaska, and brought my gi but forgot my purple belt. The coach let me borrow a white belt and said, "don't tell the guys." Must be a lot more fun as a black belt. :)
How did it go? Im guessing people were surprised when you tapped them
Yeah, people were confused. One guy (a young and zealous blue belt) got really down on himself, like his training obviously didn't mean anything. So after that I told him and he got a kick out of it.
Where did you train? Abjj?
Daniel Holley It must be a ton of fun when you're a super high level black belt. Where you just toy with people.
benji ben I forget the name, but it was the Anchorage-based Gracie affiliate. Really cool professor (long time black belt). His dog used to hang out at the gym.
every time this comes up i have to watch, best one on youtube
top 10 anime where mc looks weak but has hidden power
We need more pranks like this. Hahahah. Loved it!
Martin Leon We started making more videos, you should check them out
@@KimonoBrothers I subscribed. Saw this reply 3 years later lol
One of the best prank vids... can’t help but watch it each time it pops up. Still can’t believe no one thought to question his school’s V logo on his gi
That was a great video. Alot of humility shown.
Good going country Mac
OMFG! AGAIN! All I see are you and the fedora's in the comment section of my reddit videos
country mac is dead....
No more videos :(
Underrated comment.
@@derekb4765 top comment
This is one of the best videos on CZcams. Anyone who rolls BJJ will appreciate that this is one of the greatest and funniest videos on CZcams. Watch, laugh, learn :-))
Marcus J LOL professor Alex is the best i train at his school. We are a big happy family, OSS
Life pro tip: report the reddit trolls for unwanted commercial content or spam, they are both spamming and advertising reddit and it's annoying as fuck
Download the "no fedora" chrome extension and you won't see their posts anymore.
The only spam I see here is from you good sir. As your comment has absolutely nothing to do with the video.
You know it's a deliberate attempt to mock the Reddit website right? None of these guys regularly visit the site, they're from a site called 4Chan and they see Reddit as a rival website. It's all kind of sad and pathetic to be honest.
One of my favorite videos :) All involved were very professional. And good sports;)
LOL...he ran through that whole school without breaking a sweat...
Going to put out some more footage soon since so many people asked for it. Make sure you subscribe so you get the update!
This is pretty cool. I can see how in the end it is actually great motivation to train.
I lived about 20 minutes from that school while I was stationed in MS. Never went, but heard Allen is a great guy and very friendly guys there.
2:30 dude was like, "No freaking way!" 😁🤣
This was awesome. Much respect to the members of the club who were such good sports. It says volumes about their attitude. Good people.
I was busting a gut when he was playing the "annoying white belt." Bloody funny!
we need more of this.. please do more
Over the years I keep coming back to watch this. I love it. Currently a blue.
LOL i loved this. the first purple belt he tapped look so depressed hahaha
as a Black belt in Goju Ryu Karate I can appreciate this.
Great video... I wish there were more videos like this!!
keep coming back to this few times a year
omg i have watch this vid like 10 times and i olways smile
Someone stole your video. Look up black belt pretends to be white belt.
AzeOfSpadez I saw that
What can you do about that if they made money on it?
Michael Sanford put them in a triangle
Raphael 😂
It's not stole if it's different people
I recommend EVERY MMA/BJJ ACADEMY/gym does this to keep the students humble. Seriously. This was awesome
Purple belt guy with the longer hair is the best type of guy to have at the gym lol. Full of energy, humble and just fun to have around. I wish my gym was more like this. At my gym, a lot of the guys go WAY too hard in terms of cranking submissions in training; it gets irritating because it's usually the blue belts, and it forces me to retaliate, and I hate risking injuring my training partners that are below my belt or even at/above my belt (they wont get hurt lmao), but if you're trying to crank my fuckin' neck, you're definitely getting full force. Fucking can't stand guys that take things too far because it makes YOU look bad because people think you're beating up a lower rank guy when in reality, you're just retaliating.
why everyone getting upset with what alex said at the end? This is not alex philosophy he felt that he had to say something at the end of the prank so he put a couple of words together in about 2 minutes so stop with the critical analyzation of it let it go
***** I thought he was spot on. Training your mind is more important than training your body. I love rolling with higher belts and wearing them out with a super defensive bottom game. They will get frustrated and at the end of it they always tell me, "You're pretty good", when in reality I'm not that good, I'm just good at wearing them down over a 10 minute roll.
Damn he is good, how he controls the purple belt at 4:26 is some high lvl shit
Great vid. Shows the great atititudes and lack of egos at the gym!
This video was a great experience to teach humility. 👍
he HAD to have practised doing lazy hip escapes that badly...man that was great
LMAO @ "Can I go to the Pan Ams?" when he was a Pan Am silver medalists as a Purple belt! Best BJJ prank EVER!
That was the gentlest ass kicking of all time. I've had hand shakes that were more violent.
dude u gotta do more of this an show reactions. this is so funny. an u give them a good msg at the end : )
1:20 LMFAO you gotta love his nerdy stand like "Ohh ok got it "
Lol he even shrugged his shoulders to look a little nervous, good actor
“Can I go to the Pan Am tournament?”
😂😂
This was really entertaining, I'd like to see more videos like this. :)
This is one of my favorite videos to watch
Not for jiu jitsu but all stop. Favorite lol
Everyone's thought: Oh, they are filming this new guy for no reason whatsoever...
They told them they were filming a video for the gym's BJJ program, im sure he pretended to film alot of them just actually wasnt
Alan films class every other day.
K7doculos Lots of places film classes especially when it is competition time.
After I installed the Hide Fedora extension, all the annoying Reddit trolls have been replaced by people commenting about how everyone should install Hide Fedora...
Whoever made Hide Fedora is a marketing genius.
It's open source and I don't think they're making money off of it anyway
Lol
This video never gets old
I often browse these types of videos because it livens my heart to see people hugging. ^__^
SeanaoSeanao Dude, they are ripping each others bones out of their joints
Moral of the story: Never judge a book by it's cover.
Why not? in case someone is pranking you? The belt system is, for one, a way to match skill level for training. In this case, when he was wearing his assigned belt, the "book cover" matches perfectly. Give up your cliches and think for minute
Purple belt reaction at 2:20 xD
A few tried to do something similar to this but none were effective. This was just genius. And done so well.
Ego buster class. Awesome video and a very valuable lesson was demonstrated that night.
I thought this was very entertaining and a great prank so why did it get all those thumbs down???
There were 66 guys in class there that night.
David Tice People hate their egos being crushed.
Because the whole world has access to the internet and there's a lot of rotten apples out there.
1:34 “ every time I roll with u I bleed man” lol 😆
Wish there was more of these!
Still the best black belt as a white belt video ever. Wish this kind of thing happened more often with same level of documentation.
I wonder if the camera man gives it away...
Or the guys name on his Gi.
I thought it was hilarious great prank to mix it up at the gym.
My friends and I use to do the same thing at our ski resort.. we wore blue jeans and tried to look clueless while snowboarding.. we would fall getting on and off the chair.. use heck accents.. and then we would huck 540s in parks.. its feels so good to humble people who thought they were better then you..
I love how he gets called out immediately after the first sweep from guard directly into mount against a purple belt.
As someone who has no clue what's going on, what is the difference between the two fighters? Why was he able to win so often? What's the difference between the skill in belts?
It honestly looked like the guy just was on them the whole time, and they couldn't do anything, He made it look easy.
He can anticipate their every move. He's faster, more conditioned, and can see the moves he was trying on the newbies years ago.
If there is any martial art where there is a huge difference in skill between ranks it is BJJ
***** a really good blue belt could know all the moves a black belt knows (for the most part, or most certainly in theory). not always but it's possible. Black belt still owns him by being able to think ahead and time attacks better. Just like in a game of chess a grandmaster knows when he beat a novice 15 moves before they even think they're in real danger. In a lot of ways it is very similar to chess, but not just because lower belts don't know what to do, it goes a lot deeper ;)
Michael Sanford A blue belt *shouldn't* know all the same moves as a blackbelt. Out of all the 600 submissions BJJ has, blackbelts should know the vast majority. If your blackbelt instructor was going to his own high bluebelt for advice and knowledge, then I'd be questioning where he got that blackbelt.. if he's master the same few moves, then that, to me, sounds like HE should be the high blue, maybe low purple.
Timothy Jones, Jr. BJJ isn't about how many moves you know, it's about how you capitalize on your opponents. SOURCE: I'm a nobody.
What if everyone didn't question the man's philosophy and just enjoyed the damn prank? That would be impossible, actually
My 1000th time watching this video, I love it.
smooth and relaxed. definitely a hint that he knows what he's doing.
AHAHA! "He said that at his Kung Fu school they grappled a lot".
AHAHAHA I love you!
Lol we need more vids like this
That's so dope. The warm up drills cracked me up
so impressiv what hard work could do.💪👍
Imagine is a white belt actually defeated Alan Belcher. Then it'll be a reverse-punk!
The start of every prank video: Some dude recording. When you’re doing something where there usually isn’t a camera but one day there is...you’re getting punked. Simple as that.
What is the name of the original channel of this video pls ?
I think the more experienced guys could tell by your poster your a beast lol
Great video
5:50 eaí amigão!
wins kk
That purple belt at 410 is funny. He seemed arrogant because he judged the white belt by his belt and never considered him a real threat.
John Fiskin Exactly, plus by being fresh his confidence was even higher. First mistake, underestimating your opponent. Kung Fu 101.
So you've got all these other guys thinking they're cool posting copycat videos of this one all over CZcams now, but this one will always be by far and away the best and most enjoyable. It still makes me laugh, and you have to come back and view it again at least once a year. Thanks again.
More videos like this please
