Show Notes
Today we have the pleasure of sitting down with the biggest competitor of our show. Matt Gillette has earned over an incredible 30+ medals in IBJJF, including most recently winning Gold at Master North America. He is a first-degree black belt under Andre Maracaba in Arizona.
Matt started BJJ because one of his friends in the Marine Corps came home and showed him some of the moves he learned in MCMAP (Marine Crop Martial Arts Program) and was hooked after being constantly submitted. One of the first attributes we noticed was his sense of humor when talking with Matt. He comes off very light-hearted and makes the whole interview much more effortless.
Through Matthew's journey, he has developed firm opinions about specific topics. He is open with his distaste for point fighters, blue belts quitting, and McDojos. Some might find Matt a little rough around the edges because of his opinions, but those people are probably the ones who stop after getting their blue belts.
