UFC welterweight Dustin Hazelett was promoted to a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Black Belt under Jorge Gurgel at Gurgel's gym Tuesday night in West Chester, Ohio.
Hazelett, 22, began training Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in his junior year of high school and has been studying with Gurgel for the past 5 years and 10 months, according to the Team Gurgel website.
Hazelett, who will be quick to remind you he's not Jon Fitch, is 4-2 in the UFC and 11-4 overall in MMA.
In his last fight, Hazelett won the Submission of the Night award with a second-round armbar win over Josh Burkman at "The Ultimate Fighter 7 Finale" in June.
Hazelett had to go under the knife to remove damaged cartilage under his nose after that fight, but he's already back training for his next fight scheduled for Nov. 15 at UFC 91 "Couture vs. Lesnar" against Tamden McCrory.
