"Progression aligns with time-in-belt norm. Smoothcomp profile and Voyager BJJ’s own blog bio (March 2022) place him at brown belt in that window, consistent with a 2020 brown-belt date and a 2023 black belt. The BJJ Globetrotters black-belt member directory also lists him. Devin Powell definitely eligible to award a black belt in 2023, as Nostos MMA lists him as a 2nd-degree black belt and he publicly posted receiving that 2nd degree from Jay Mansfield. Legit!"

"Time in grade good, competition videos shows good knowledge of jiu-jitsu, competition medals and competitions on record, would like to see more pictures in belt history to solidify the profile, but there's enough evidence to verify. Legit"

"Ryan is going places in jiu jitsu. I have known him for a number of years and had the pleasure of training with him at my gym for a few of those years. Ryan is a VERY talented and capable practitioner who I suspect will have a different color belt soon. "
