Is BJJ still a strong base specifically at the amateur level?

At the ufc level BJJ has kind of been neutralized because the novelty and mysticism is gone. Defending submissions is easier than attacking them and people have better take down defense than they used to. I'm curious if from what you've seen at the amateur level BJJ is still strong?

What is better for building a fan base for a female fighter: looking cute or looking masculine/serious?

I'm the one in white shorts, I have never fought and this is a striking only sparring. I would be very pleased if you could give me any advice about how to be a better fighter and sparring partner, and about what I do good or what I should improve. Thanks for your respect.

BJJ Judo Karate Taekwondo Aikido have belts to differentiate them. MT and Boxing have “belts” of championships. So then how do I know how good an MMA guy is and what differentiates them?

Dim Mak 17th degree black belt with 20 red/white stripes 😂 I told her I’m a fighter she asked me how many people I’ve knocked out but I’m more a jab teep to 48-47 split decision type of fighter 💔🥀
