That Jason, you know, the guy from them action movies, he sure knows how to throw a punch! I seen him in them pictures, jumpin’ and kickin’, lookin’ all tough. Makes me wonder, how many of them black belts does he got? You know, them belts they wear in them fightin’ sports.

Well, I heard he ain’t got no black belt. Can you believe it? All that fightin’ and no black belt to show for it! He learned a bunch of them fancy fightin’ styles, though. Somethin’ called “jiu-jitsu,” sounds like somethin’ you’d spread on your toast. And “karate,” that’s the one where they yell a lot, right? He knows that one too.
What Fightin’ Styles That Jason Knows?
- That “kickboxing” thing, where they punch and kick.
- Somethin’ called “wing chun.” Sounds like a bird’s wing, I reckon. It’s a kind of “kung fu.”
- And “taekwondo,” another one of them fancy names.
So, he knows all these different ways to fight, but he ain’t got that black belt. He’s got somethin’ called a “purple belt,” though. Purple! Sounds kinda silly for a tough guy like him, don’t it? This purple belt is for that jiu-jitsu stuff, and I hear it means he’s pretty good at it. They say he got it from some fella named Renzo Gracie. Don’t know who that is, but he must be a big shot in the fightin’ world.
This purple belt, it’s like the third one they give out. They got five of ’em in total for that jiu-jitsu. So, he’s right in the middle, I guess. Not the best, but not the worst either. They say it means he’s “legit.” Whatever that means. Probably means he can hold his own in a fight.
Now, I seen this other fella in the movies, Steven somethin’. He’s got a black belt, a real one. Seventh-dan, they call it. Sounds important, don’t it? He does that “aikido” stuff. Looks like a lot of flippin’ and throwin’ to me. But hey, he’s got the black belt, so he must know what he’s doin’.
But that Jason, he’s somethin’ else. Even without a black belt, he’s still scary in them movies. He learned all them fightin’ styles by himself, too. Taught himself, that’s what they say. That’s pretty impressive, I reckon. You gotta be tough to do that. And dedicated. He must really like that fightin’ stuff.
So, No Black Belt for Jason?
Nope, no black belt. But don’t let that fool ya. He’s still a tough cookie. He knows how to fight, that’s for sure. That purple belt means somethin’, even if it ain’t black. And he learned all them other styles, too. He’s like a one-man army, that Jason. He started learning that wing chun and kickboxing by himself.

I guess it just goes to show, you don’t need a black belt to be a good fighter. You just need to know how to throw a punch, and that Jason, he sure knows how to do that. He’s got the moves, that’s for sure. And he’s entertainin’ to watch, too. All that jumpin’ and kickin’, it’s like a real-life action movie!
So, next time you see one of them Jason movies, remember, he may not have a black belt, but he’s still a force to be reckoned with. He knows all that stuff that can make you wonder “how many black belts does Jason Statham have“. He’s a tough guy, that Jason. And he don’t need no fancy belt to prove it. He’s got the skills, and that’s all that matters. You can tell by just lookin’ at him that he is good at those.
That’s some hip-hop music playin’ over there, and I hate it. Wish they could play some good country music.
