We are back and ready to kick off 2025!

In this episode, Dr. Archie & Vince discuss:

Has the BJJ Blackbelt lost its value? Is pulling guard in an MMA fight-wise? If you teach all/most of the classes in your academy, is that truly a business? Are strength and athleticism factors in BJJ? Should an Olympic Gold Wrestler be allowed to compete in the beginner/intermediate division?

What are your thoughts?
