Basically the way Elijah won was to not engage during the actual rounds and then basically wrestle Nicky during overtime, if they have a rematch Nicky will submit him 100%
It was wise not to wrestle with Kody Steele. He's great at using his takedowns to pass, suplex or create a scramble to back-exposure and his gas tank is insane. Nicky definitely could hang with the wrestling, but probably not in the gas tank. Nicky went out with a game-plan and executed amazingly.
Watching Nicky Ryan use the moves he shows in his instructionals to beat guys is beyond impressive, like, we’ve all seen them and know how they work, lol he’s just good at them all.
@@kommisar. Because they both have big strong legs which they use effectively, that's why this comment has likes, you insufferable dope. Put more question marks next time you ask a question though.
Been trying to get an answer on this… what is the ref doing inserting himself into these matches by pulling a competitor aside pre-fight and whispering in his ear? Seen him do it countless times. Does anyone know what sort of stuff he’s saying? Comes off as biased and unprofessional
Most likely the triangle. My coach’s fav set up, you go for the kimura, making sure you opponent is focused on defending not realizing where your legs are, moment Ricky flops to his side, locks in that triangle. Also works from bottom set up kimura. I can’t explain it very well but ye 😅
The craziest thing about trials, and no disrespect to competitors, is that so many people sign up that top tier grapplera may go 4 or 5 rounds before they encounter another top tier grappler
So....... you want a UFC type event and not an OPEN tournament format? Are you advocating for an organization to act like gate keepers to limit the chance of a new comer upsetting a constructed and controlled ranking hierarchy?
@Springfield-eo8jl not at all lol that's what ADCC is at the back end tho lol. Was just an observation. If they wanted to limit trials they could always require some of these guys to win or medal at an ADCC open before qualifying for trials tho. Cause you see some dudes get absolutely highlight reeled and hurt during these trial runs cause they just shouldn't be competing at this level, yet
@@DianteHarris-iv5jr Iron sharpens Iron. How does improvement happen if they are not tested and face adversity and challenges? Growth happens when you are placed in uncomfortable environments.
@Springfield-eo8jl that adage only works if it's iron against iron. Aluminum vs iron makes highlight reels. It's not an insult to these guys, but you legit have the best in the world rolling 2 year grapplers, they're jist not rdy yet and getting embarrassed does nothing to improving their game
One thing I dislike about some of the bjj is the just sitting down part… I’ve started bjj for self defence and fitness and love it, even though im sore as hell, I prefer watching them standing and putting someone down. Just my 2 cents
Wait, you're saying if you are out in public and someone starts some $h!+ with you, you won't just sit down on the ground and egg then on to attack you?!😂😂😂😂
I just find it interesting when nicky is on bottom everyone is trying to knee cut or outside pass and gets heel hooked. But when nicky is on top he doesn't do he pressures and babie hooks and just melts into mount. Why didn't anyone try to pressure pass nicky.
Getting out of the shadow,now making a name for himself.just wanna see a few takedown from him to see the completeness of his game from standing to bottom.nevertheless its a beautifull display of sport jiujitsu.
crazy how good Craig's little brother is doing out here
I heard he trained only with ladyboys for years
1:08 that hip switch tho 🫡
Good catch. Incredible.
Probably the cleanest I’ve ever seen
that was lit!
this is the 2nd video ive noticed how fast and clean nicky ryans hip switch is
That was a thing to behold wasn’t it
That was some beautiful bjj. Especially loved in the 2nd match how he used the Choi bar to take back. Happy to see Nicky getting some wins and healthy
Weird Al was a good ref
@@nickgulgren5906lol
That's was slick
Yeah, he does it often, for sure uses some predictable reaction.
The Deadliest Hobbit in the Texan Shire
This really puts the way Craig taps Nicky constantly into perspective…
Craig is the number one grappler on the planet, after all 😉
Craig does have an extra 20 kilos and a decade more experience to be fair to Nicky
@@KaninTuzi Nº1 at being 2nd. But one of the bests for sure
To me it highlight what 20 lbs does for you at the highest level
Felt almost like a chess match in some instances. Love seen Nicky opponents tap as soon the sub was in, preventing any injuries. Truly magnificent!
Good to see Weird Al Yankovic reffing Jiu Jitsu matches ate the highest level
Came here to say this.. I'm glad others are supporting him on his journey
That's Blake from Workaholics
hahaha i was going to say both al and blake but could only come up with frank zappa
3:36 choi bar attempt to back take ... sick!
cool how flo grapplings production quality hasnt changed since 2012
To be fair they make some amazing docs. But yeah the live stuff, oof.
ya that hip switch was crazy clean
What level ! What's crazy is that they all arrive in front of him to defend, almost none attack.
He imposes his game and his style.
Bravo to Ryan
nicky is so good man

Hope he stay healthy and fit to finally face Mica in WNO. That fight will be awesome
Guard puller memes stop when its the Ryan bros. Keep that wrestle jitsu energy to yourself 😂😂
He wrestles up from the ground like a real man
Love the second guy’s coach - “RUN”
The most impressiv in this run is the Weird Al and Dj Khaleeds run on Ozempic =D
Watching Nicky Ryan use the moves he shows in his instructionals to beat guys is beyond impressive, like, we’ve all seen them and know how they work, lol he’s just good at them all.
The fact hes beating people like Steele so quickly with almost no effort is crazy.
2:12 I didn't realize Weird Al was a BJJ ref now??
Crazy seeing him winning multiple matches
2:42 most free oil check ive ever seen
5:02 "run" nice coaching, hahaha
I heard that too...ummmm that didn't work out too well ???
Making it look too easy....😮 and that hip switch😮
Brilliant!
3:38 that choi bar to back take 💅
Gordan Ryans brother is a beast!
So fucking talented
Nice to see Weird Al finding a hobby after making music lol
This 10 year old boy on trt is crushing black belt adults, that's crazy man
“Monstro”! Luta feito um demônio.
Dat hip switch at 1:09 tho…
We shall now name him Nicky Six
8:26 Ryan counters the opponent’s leg entry, demonstrating a path against his own, typical attack -a pathway that none of his previous opponents used.
Nice job Nicky!
Incredible thumbnail
The eyebrows of background ref 2:33 lol😂
Foot battle at 8:41 hahaha suuuuuuucks when people latch on there
BEAST 💨
Given the roll that he was on in this event, Dorsey's upset in the finals is all the more impressive.
great fights
3:38 that back take gave me a half chub. Reminds me ofJozef Chen's back take vs Oliver Taza last year
The only Ryan brother that's relevant.
“Talk Less” love it!
Nicky has legs like Marcelo
No he doesn’t, they don’t have anything similiar
@@trollinu7494they both do bjj
Ya, Nick have legs like Marcelo. Two legs with toes. I have two legs too
@@trollinu7494 I know. How does this comment have any likes???

The way he subbed Kody in 50 sec... Insane.
>sees video
>Sweet! can't wait to watch some sick grappling fights
>dude immediately sits down
this fucking sport, man
Between that and PEDs it's hard to take it seriously as a sport.
His big brother Craig must be so proud of him.
Craigs little bro is pretty good
Lets go nicky
Been trying to get an answer on this… what is the ref doing inserting himself into these matches by pulling a competitor aside pre-fight and whispering in his ear? Seen him do it countless times.
Does anyone know what sort of stuff he’s saying? Comes off as biased and unprofessional
He's asking for the best weed plug
He's telling them their legs are fkd
Nicky’s kind of a star he could be saying something about don’t try to make a name for yourself by playing dirty or something
It was after the match after Nicky subbed him, ref whispering, probably said something along the lines of great match.
Well the promoter also walks out with the Superfight Main event guy so lol
beast!
Where's the post trials interview and medal ceremony like most the other videos? Give the man his flowers
Wierd Al is a BJJ ref now?! The guy is so versatile!
720p ? Come on Flo.
The way he demolished that 2nd opponent ..... boiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
720 p? wow. pushing technical boundaries are we lol
The match against Kieran Kichuk was the best for me. The only one to force Nicky to pass.
🔥Tebrikler...👍 ben blue olarak rakiplerinden daha çok dayanırdım 😎
YO! Was that Weird Al reffing Nicky's second match?
Craig Jones has some top tier students
2:14 He's gettin referee'd by Weird Al Yankovich.
Nicky made everyone look like a white belt
It's crazy that Weird Al is reffing for ADCC now.
Was that first finish from the triangle or the kimura?
Most likely the triangle. My coach’s fav set up, you go for the kimura, making sure you opponent is focused on defending not realizing where your legs are, moment Ricky flops to his side, locks in that triangle. Also works from bottom set up kimura. I can’t explain it very well but ye 😅
He makes these guys look like purple belts... or maybe they are purple belts.
"Black Belt? Who give him?" - ISLAM MAKHACHEV 🤣
Kody Steele and Kieran Kichuk are no purple belts
Kody might be a purple, kieran is a great blackbelt.
@@kwest-fr lol Islam would get smoked by Nicky
@@REXAZOR Yeah Islam's supposed to be so great against bjj, let's see him in one of these tournaments 😅
Back takings from the arm
He didn’t even break a sweat.
Imagine Nicky on all of the juice his brother’s on.
Weird Al Yankovek reffing that second match. Spitting image.
we want the pit! we want the pit!
ALL ACTION ----> pulls guard
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

How come refs never tell me secrets before and after the match? 😢
The organization openly allows the use of PEDs, you expect them to be saints?
Poetry
When did kichuk leave TLi
10:46 that entry holy fuuuuuuuuuuuuuck
i didnt know weird al was an ADCC ref 😂
Is this recent I though kichuck was part of the b team
I noticed he always gives up top position for the bottom and that’s because form the bottom u have more submission options
Why video quality is so bad
I just find it interesting when nicky is on bottom everyone is trying to knee cut or outside pass and gets heel hooked. But when nicky is on top he doesn't do he pressures and babie hooks and just melts into mount. Why didn't anyone try to pressure pass nicky.
Did he just walk through Kody Steele?
And the final ??😢
He lost that's why they didn't shownit. They felt it would diminish the hype.
Nice to see Weird Al Yankovic staying young n healthy!
Nice to see Weird Al out there refereeing bjj matches.
So heel hook for the wins?
Any other grappler would be getting trolled and destroyed for using heel hooks.
Interesting
Justin Bieber has good jiujitsu and leg locks
Getting out of the shadow,now making a name for himself.just wanna see a few takedown from him to see the completeness of his game from standing to bottom.nevertheless its a beautifull display of sport jiujitsu.
Its cool that Weird Al Yankovic also refs BJJ tournaments.
Wierd al yankovic.. best in the biz
Just buzz sawed everyone
He’s ok.
its like: one black belt vs 6 blue belts
talk less just sub
This is what happens when you train with nothing but killers in a daily basis.
