Al Bundy, Black Belt

Bigger Stronger Leaner
1

I’ve been watching this new show Modern Family on ABC because one of my favorite actors, Ed O’Neil, forever will be known as Al Bundy, is on the show. And of course I watch it for smoking hot Sofia Vergara.

So I’m looking at Ed’s bio, and I didn’t know he’s been studying Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for the past 15 years under the mentoring of Rorion Gracie. He also received his black belt in 2007. I know having a black belt in some Martial arts don’t mean shit, but coming from that family you better know the art. I’ve known people who took BJJ from some of the Gracies and I swear it seems they’ve been white belts for more than 4 years.

But for some reason it makes me laugh. I don’t know why, but it does. Maybe it’s his Al Bundy persona that makes me not take this seriously. Well if Al can do it, so can you! Whooooaaaaa Bundy!

How cool is that? Not only did he play one of the greatest characters of all time, he can also rip your fucking arm off and beat you with it. What a G.

Well he used to always beat up Kelly’s boyfriends, lol. I wonder if before he starts rolling against someone, he says “Let’s rock”.

In some interview he said he’s used it a couple of times to choke some dudes.

If he actually pulled that off he would supplant Bruce Willis as my only allowable man crush.

Ever since his days at Polk High.

MWC was one of the best shows ever. I still watch re-runs.

We can take great inspiration from the fighting Bundys.

First thing you’ve ever said that I agree with.

That is so cool. I told my wife about Al Bundy and how he has a pretty high belt in bjj and she was like WTF? Crazy, as it seems, but the bottom line is, Jefferson D’arcy would get his ASS KICKED.

He comes from a blue collar mill hunky family, and played D-IA and D-IAA ball…he isnt your typical midget pretty boy actor. NE Ohio bad ass.
