where did Dave Kaplan get his black belt
McDonalds, with Roli...they were having a 2 large fry and 2 blackbelts for $2.22 deal..
actually I believe he got his from Lloyd Irvin ... who is a pretty legit instructor...he is Brandon Vera's teacher as well..
I've heard this story thrown around a lot, but not quite sure where it started. Truth is Kaplan is not a black belt, he's a blue belt. At least that is what he states at UFC.com on his profile. Here's the link.
