Megadeth’s Dave Mustaine promoted to Purple belt

He may be 59 years old and busy with his music career, yet Dave Mustaine has still found time to train Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. This week saw Mustaine promoted to purple belt by professor Reggie Almeida at Gracie Barra Spring Hill, Tennessee. Interestingly, this isn’t the first martial art that he has been involved with either, previously earning black belts in Karate and Taekwondo respectively.

This shows the further growth of BJJ in recent times as yet another celebrity figure has shone a light on the positive benefits of training. With this said, not only is Dave Mustaine a badass on guitar and vocals, he’s also equally equipped in the world of martial arts.
