The UFC’s own Ben Saunders is now a black belt under Eddie Bravo himself.
Saunders, who has also fought for Bellator, shared the exciting news on social media:
“So tonight one of the greatest achievements of my life occurred… 😳🥋 Thank you so much Sifu @eddiebravo10p I am extremely honored to represent #10thPlanetJiuJitsu 💛🤗 “
Saunders is among multiple UFC athletes, including Tony Ferguson, who train jiu-jitsu under the 10th Planet affiliation. His last MMA win was against Jake Ellenberger in 2018.
