Daniel Sandlin, plus Josh Murdock: July 16

Daniel Sandlin earned his black belt this week: he joins us to explain how the Marine Corps martial arts program compares to training jiu-jitsu, what the black belt means to him, whether a sport jiujitsu practitioner is generally adept at self defense, and the story behind his promotion ceremony -- including the first emotions he felt upon receiving the belt, which may surprise you. He also shares with us his plans for his first black belt competition, his favorite rulesets, and more. Plus, learn the toughest people he's rolled with, gi or nogi. One of Daniel's earliest training partners was Josh Murdock, now a black belt also. We talk to Josh both *before* and *after* his first IBJJF tournament at black belt, the New York Open where he wins bronze. Thanks as always to our sponsors, US Grappling, Toro BJJ, and Cageside Fight Co.!
