Your kind of missing the point.
Belts don't matter. MMA dosen't have colored belts just championship ones. The closest would be BJJ and possibly Brazilian muay thai. Both are around eight years of dedicated effort, possibly more.
Why are you concerned with a belt? I am not belted in any system and routinely tapped out purple belts,browns and one or two black belts in my day. They tapped me out as well. I fought a guy who was a third degree black belt in some kind of karate and also tae kwondo and I whooped his ass. Then I fought a guy who was above my weight class and sucked but he got me with a good punch and I lost.
Its all relative.
As long as there is actual sparring you just need to start going to train instead of posting about it.
