The two time UFC Lightweight Champion is known for his unbelievable Jiu-Jitsu and beautiful submissions.  He is considered by many the best boxer in all of MMA.  In 2000, BJ became the first non-Brazilian to win the world championship in Jiu-Jitsu at the black-belt level.  A threat in any fight, and from any position.  BJ is one of very few mixed martial artists willing to take on opponents in many weight classes.  BJ has fought at 155lbs all the way through 205lbs, never weighing-in at more than 183lbs.
