Erik Paulson is a true LEGEND of the sport of MMA and martial Arts as a whole. He had been my teacher for nearly 20 years. In September of 2017 I received my Black Belt in BJJ from him, though most of my career I studied Mixed Martial Arts under his Combat Submission Wrestling System.

As former Shooto Champion and true Master of all ranges in MMA, he is one of the pioneers of what modern Day Mixed Martial Arts is.
