In today’s installment…
“The Karate Nerd“, one of YouTube’s biggest martial artists, has stirred quite the pot lately by posting several controversial videos focused on Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ), including one particularly provocative installment where he joined a tournament to “prove it doesn’t work.” In a quest to challenge the status quo, he even traveled to Gracie University to engage with Ryron Gracie himself, attempting to disprove the effectiveness of sport jiu jitsu. This bold move caught the attention of the AMAZING YouTuber JOSH BEAM, who decided to take matters into his own hands.
Fueled by a desire to defend the honor of BJJ, he promptly booked a ticket straight to Stockholm with the intention of challenging Jesse at his dojo, Combat Academy! However, realizing that his Jiu Jitsu skills were not quite enough to take on such a formidable opponent, Josh committed himself to training in judo for an entire year, where he diligently honed his throws and ground game. After a grueling year of preparation, he returned to Stockholm, ready to reclaim his pride and seek revenge against Jesse. But what transpired next was completely unexpected and far from what he had initially anticipated.
He came for revenge but instead found himself experiencing a profound lesson in martial arts and humility, as well as an aspect of Karate that’s not often displayed or talked about. Through rigorous training and thoughtful reflection, he discovered that true strength lies not only in physical prowess but also in the cultivation of inner peace and respect for others. Each session brought new challenges that tested his resolve, pushing him to confront both his fears and preconceived notions about fighting and power.
