At the latest Pit Fighting Championship, streamed live on FloGrappling and watched by fans across the globe, Professor Noah stepped into The Pit and delivered a performance worthy of his black belt—securing a hard-fought victory in one of the most anticipated matches of the night.

This wasn’t just a win. It was a statement. A reflection of years of discipline, pressure-tested technique, and the unwavering mentorship of Professor Adam Smith, one of the top adult Jiu Jitsu coaches in Spokane and the entire Pacific Northwest.

A Defining Moment in a Black Belt Journey

Earning a black belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is one of the most difficult achievements in martial arts—and stepping into a high-level match at that rank is an entirely new level of challenge. Under the bright lights and relentless pressure of Pit Fighting Championship, Noah proved that he belonged on that stage, showing exceptional composure, timing, and strategy.

His performance was technical, composed, and aggressive in all the right moments—hallmarks of an athlete trained under an elite coach with a proven system.

The Impact of Adam Smith’s Coaching

Professor Noah’s victory didn’t happen overnight. It’s the product of years of high-level coaching from Adam “Smash” Smith, founder of SMASH Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and one of the most respected BJJ instructors in the Northwest.

Adam is known for his ability to develop adult athletes from the ground up—transforming everyday people into confident, technical, and competition-ready martial artists. His attention to detail, personalized mentorship, and structured curriculum have helped build a strong core of adult students who consistently succeed on the local and national stage.

From day one as a white belt to the moment Noah earned his black belt and beyond, Adam Smith has played a key role in shaping his mindset, sharpening his technique, and preparing him for the highest levels of competition.

Pit Fighting Championship — The Proving Ground

Pit Fighting Championship has quickly become one of the premier grappling promotions in the country, offering elite-level matchups and a global platform for rising stars and established black belts alike. For athletes like Noah, it’s more than just a match—it’s a chance to showcase years of work, and represent their lineage, coach, and team on a world-class stage.
