BJ moved up the belt ranks quickly as well, but from what I understand, he was training for some time before he "officially" and "formally" started training jits, which was why he moved up the ranks so quickly. Lloyd could have been training Tracey for a while before he "officially" got her to compete and before she started taking her grading... just my 2 cents, I still don't believe the hype, no talent can be substitute for hard work, anyone who puts in the grunt work on the mats day in and day out knows thisAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30740798.post-21588311192749402492010-09-10T22:19:51.783-05:002010-09-10T22:19:51.783-05:00This was absolutely beautiful!!!

Maybe she just chilled out at that rank for a bit too long...although that still doesn't change the fact that she is a brown belt (and proved it!) in four years.Aparnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06394608461189327565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30740798.post-86834186100633095022010-09-09T09:46:32.205-05:002010-09-09T09:46:32.205-05:00Actually the announcers could have been more sensa...Actually the announcers could have been more sensationalist if they'd known Tracey better-- she went blue to brown in a MONTH.
