Paul Walker BJJ

The late Paul Walker was inspired to take up Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Mauy Thai after watching the first UFC Mixed Martial Arts fightsAccording to Walkers teacher, Ricardo Miller, Paul loved BJJ and practiced whenever he could, wherever he was in the world. One of his favourite moves was the bow-and-arrow choke, and he was also known to have a fierce guard game. Upon his untimely death, Walkers was awarded an honorary black belt in BJJ. This belt was presented by Miller to Walkers family and commemorated ten years of dedication and training.
