Biography
Jon Blank is an American Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt and one of the top competitors to emerge from 10th Planet Jiu-Jitsu. An ADCC veteran, Blank is known for his dangerous lower-body submission game— particularly his straight ankle lock and inside heel hook.
Blank’s style blends the distinctive 10th Planet system with strong wrestling, aggressive transitions, and a creative guard built around threats from every angle. In 2025, he won the notoriously difficult North American ADCC Trials at 88kg, further cementing himself as one of the top grapplers in the sport today.
