I’m not even sure what to editorialize here; the results speak for themselves. The untouchable Denny Prokopos swept the 65kg weight division, winning the first round against Italy by Rear Naked choke, maintaining momentum in round two against Germany by triangle, and taking the final round against Poland, 3 – 0. He did all of this without giving up a single point to his opponents.

I can’t wait to see the videos either. Check Avant Guard for updates.
Although, at some point, I think we have to figure out when we’re actually supposed to wear these things… Well, meanwhile, it’s a not a bad problem to have.
Congrats to Gerald Strebendt and Scott “Einstein” Epstein. Gerald is Eddies first brown belt. He’s been with Eddie since before Eddie thought of opening a school.
Einstein showed up for the first class to train with an instructor who was, at the time relatively unknown, and he’s been one of Eddies most dedicated students ever since, competing under a 10th Planet banner, pretty much whenever possible.
The two, along with Denny and Sean, demonstrate that, with black belts spanning the pacific coast, 10th Planet has arrived and it’s here to stay.
