Helio Gracie, the father of Gracie jiu-jitsu, is dead at the age of 95. Gracie passed in his sleep early Thursday in Itaipaiva, Rio de Janeiro, after he had been admitted to a local hospital a few days prior for stomach problems.
Combat Clothing would like to wish the entire Gracie family our deepest condolences .Grand Master Helio will be missed but will never be forgotten. He helped change the way people looked at Martial Arts.He showed the world what Jiu-Jitsu was, and how it became a major blue print for modern MMA. Thank you Helio

It's A Brown Belt Thing!!
So Vinny came up to me after a hard day of teaching at PRO-AM Mixed Martial ARTS Training Center(that's a mouth full)and said that he needed to promote one of his students. So I thought to myself cool lets get some black tape tear off a small strip and roll the tape around the dudes white belt and lets go to lunch !! Vinny then informed me that he was promoting Peter Sutton...... well to all of you in the WWW.COM land its just a name but to Vinny its a BIG Deal.
You see Peter is a Purple belt but as a purple belt he has won BJJ Nationals Absolute Division as a purple belt (crazy) and competed at the BJJ Worlds in the Black Belt Division taking 3rd as a purple belt (retarded). Yes the dude has skills. So we here at Combat Clothing would like to say congratulations to Peter and good job to Vinny I guess he not only has Mad Crazy BJJ but can also teach and pass on some sick skills......come find out at Pro-Am Mixed Martial Arts in Murrieta Ca
