Watch Every Purple Belt Final From 2018 Pans
The purple belt division is THE place to witness the future of jiu-jitsu.
The purple belt division is THE place to witness the future of jiu-jitsu. Seasoned but not quite perfectionists, purple belts have all the skills to earn a victory but leave just enough play in their game to remain a bit unpredictable.
