A few years ago I used to write a monthly article for BJJ style all about being a white-belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. For one of these episodes I had the pleasure of interviewing Harley Flanagan. A Black Belt under Renzo Gracie and founder of the Cro-Mags. It was a phone interview that was never really intended to be aired, but it's pretty funny and seemed a shame for it to go to waste. I've done what I can to clean up the interview. Enjoy!
