"Progression aligns with time-in-belt norms. Smoothcomp profile 313612 lists Ioannis Efthymiou under Ze Radiola Team, with competition history including IBJJF European No-Gi 2019 as purple belt (aligning with 2017 purple and 2019 brown promotions under Antonis Pappas at Rhodes Knights BJJ Academy). Rhodes Knights Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Academy Smoothcomp club page confirms affiliation with Antonis Pappas. For the 2026 black belt, promoting instructor Max Carvalho is a 4th-degree black belt under Zé Radiola (per Smoothcomp fighter profile and Instagram seminar posts), well beyond 2nd-degree status to award it. BJJ Eastern Europe reports verify long-term training at Rhodes Knights under Pappas. Lots of photos. Verified!"
