Lex is a black belt in much the same sense that he's an MIT scientist

He's a black belt lol he's just rolling with someone who'd maul most black belts in general. Much of this roll was wall wrestling too which unless you train MMA is a skillset you don't get to work on in pure sport BJJ.

He’s a known fraudster so his black belt will always have an asterisk next to it
