10th Planet Standout & King Of The Mat Champion Kyle Boehm Has Earned His Black Belt

October 24, 2019

Kyle Boehm of 10th Planet Phoenix has been quietly building an impressive resume in BJJ as a brown belt for a couple years now, but now, he’s going to be right at home amongst the other black belts he’s so used to competing against.

Boehm, who last weekend won $10,000 after becoming the King of the Mat champion, has been training at 10th Planet Phoenix for about five years. Since that time, he’s established himself as a serious force to be reckoned with, winning at prestigious events like the Onnit Invitational.

10th Planet Phoenix celebrated Boehm’s promotion with a post on social media sharing the special moment:

Some people ascend to certain levels faster than others based off many factors. @kyleboehm10p hit the ground running since the day he stepped on our mats in 2014. We have had the great pleasure of sharing his Jiu-jitsu journey with @10thplanetfreaks @freakahhzoid and @boogeyman_tfs. Kyle has taken every opportunity to train and learn from as many people possible and it has paid off. He is 100% a beast.

Boehm is among the competitors set to battle it out at the upcoming BJJ Fanatics Sub-Only Grand Prix, where he’ll have the chance to earn another $10,000 if he wins it all. He’s no stranger to defeating black belts, but now, he’ll have an even bigger target on his back.

Congratulations, Kyle!
