Metamoris 5 Shocker: Brown Belt Will Grapple for $10K

In an a very interesting turn of events, the voice of the BJJ social media world has spoken, and Matheus Diniz of Marcelo Garcia Jiu-Jitsu Academy in New York, will be facing off against Vinny Magalhaes for a grand prize of $10,000. The real crazy thing about this decision though, is that Matheus is actually a brown belt. I have nothing against Matheus, and I congratulate him for receiving such overwhelming support, but is a brown belt ready to face off in the main event of a premiere Jiu-Jitsu championship league? Are we just giving $10,000 dollars to Vinny?

What about the requirement?

I know that Vinny Magalhaes says he will fight ANYONE, ANY WEIGHT, but what about the clearly stated requirement of being “At least Black Belt in BJJ”.

So what’s your take? Comment me, should he be allowed to fight? Or should it be given to the next Black Belt in line according to the Social Media Contest?
