what brand is that t-shirt?
Dude I've been watching/listening to your political podcasts for the last few months now, had no clue you were a fan of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu let alone even know who Craig Jones or Gordan Ryan are. Do you train? Keep up the great work love your videos
Nice Sleep Token shirt! Would love an interview with one of them further down the line. (Great chat with Jones, too... hilarious)
ITS MONDAY WHERE THE FOOK IS MY EPISODE 😤
ADCC is only prestigious because of the level of athletes in it. Where the athletes go, the prestige goes
Just repeat what Craig says on another podcasts why don't you
@@ronoc89 Oh, cool. What other podcast did he say that on? I'll have to check it out
thats a great point
He said it in the most recent Ariel helwani podcast
@@ronoc89imagine defending ppl that would step over u and a company that will never notice u
I’m convinced Craig is becoming a marketing genius.
He’s just being controversial and humorous. It’s not rocket science my man.
becoming?
He's literally popping up on all the podcasts everywhere and I'm for it HAHA.
How do you think B-team became so popular? The man is really good at marketing
Craig jones is just beloved in the sport. People want to support him. He is also right. Just a nice lad getting support from his friends.
This one man has single handed, made grappling more mainstream/likeable. He’s such an entertainer, extremely charismatic, hilarious, is real good at grappling and draws such a greater audience to the sport now. The sport needs to thank this man!
I agree with everything you said, however saying he is merely “good at grappling” has to be the understatement of the century!!! Jones is one of the best to ever do it…!!!
Wait Gordon made the popularity not Craig. Craig rode Gordon's coattails for sure. He's great but he's not the creator.
@@ericfazekas1057exactly he took Gordon’s popularity then created some kind of anti Gordon character to get popularity himself. Without Gordon would anyone know who Craig was? Only the people who knew who he was 12 years ago.
@@FearRua thank god, somebody else that sees it. That's exactly what he's doing but he wrapped it in a, I'm only doing this for charity and to help people wrapper. And then whenever he needs more followers and more money he challenges Gordon to another match.
😂😂😂@@ericfazekas1057
Still doesn't change the fact that there are 49 million kangaroos in Australia and 3.5 million people in Uruguay. wich means that if the kangaroos decided to invade Uruguay, each person would have to fight 14 kangaroos.......
If uruguay had never seceded from brazil that wouldnt be a problem
Damn. Imagine a baby fighting 14 kangaroos…
We would be supported by our cows and carpinchos companions, fighting with one hand, with the other occupied by the termo and mate.
Easy fight.
I’m running from 14 kangaroos!
How are you getting 49 million kangaroos to Uruguay?
The second best guest on your podcast.
Underrated comment
who's the first?
@@upvotecomment2110 it's a gordan ryan/craig inside joke of craig always taking second place lol
b-team, baby
@@Potatoes730 Lol is that actually where the name comes from?
I'm from Adelaide, where Craig is from, it's a relatively small city and it's absolutely insane to me that he isn't more well known locally outside of the MMA world considering how much he's changing the landscape of an industry.
I too am from Radelaide and agree, it's sad how all our big talents only make it after they leave here.
At least The Hilltop Hoods still rep the love for us lol.
@@gamblorrr I don’t think it’s that he doesn’t rep the love for Adelaide though, literally no one I know that isn’t in the mma community & even some in it don’t know who he is.
It’s a city of 1 million people and he’s in a suuuuper niche field. Can’t expect him to hang around lol 😂
@shannonsteven3982 I guess I'm just salty ill probs never get to shit talk with him in person lmao.
Maybe you like the idea of Adelaide being a 'relatively small city' but at 1.3 million it's a very large city by Australian standards.
@@paulietv2162 exactly, by Australian standards, we have a population of 26 million which is minute in the grand scheme
Craig is my favorite gay grappler hands down - a great ambassador of the sport!
Second favorite *
the sport of bjj or bj?
Gay-grappling. It's essentially the same rule-set but naked from the waist down. First to pop a chub loses. @@cvspvr
😂😂
@@josesandoval3429now that's fuckin funny!😂
I don't care what anyone says...that's funny!
Gordan maybe the No Gi GOAT, but Craig has won this life thing. Craig's jiujitsu success/technique, sense of humor, likability, and just over-all personal happiness makes him a winner. Gordon is a sore winner and spends his energy trying to tell everyone how good he is or putting other people down.
💯
Craig is Devon Larratt.
Gordon is Levon.
4:00 “he takes what people are already doing, teaches in a really high-level way, changes the name a little bit…really good marketing”.
Having Craig Jones on your podcast is awesome! I never thought this crossover would happen. I hope you guys also discussed his mindset in general. He is definitely an interesting case study in regards to being a high-level competitor while maintaining a relatively light-hearted indifferent attitude towards success. I'm looking forward to the full episode!
yeah its the dream really, to have the talent he has but have so much other stuff going on and just having fun and not taking the sport so seriously. being a natural comedian helps as well, i dont see how anyone could dislike him.
also seems a bit more serious than usual on this clip which is interesting ha
I like Craig when he’s not being a troll 100% of the time. He’s hilarious but nice to hear him just be straight with people.
Craig Jones is single handedly improving Australia's standing in the world after that Hitler guy badly ruined their image in the 40s.
😂 I can't tell if you're joking lol
Nice (from an Aussie) 😂
Gold
Made me actually lol love from NZ
I love John Danaher as much as the next guy, but we should stop saying that he was a "philosophy professor at Columbia." He wasn't. John was a graduate student in the philosophy department teaching intro level courses. I'm not bagging on that, by the way. But, he never received a PhD and never held a tenured or tenure-track position. He does have great pedagogy, but it's inaccurate to call him a professor.
The fact that all the decent humans from DDS left should tell you all you need to know about John Danaher.
If anything, Danaher has a PhD in Pedantic Studies
He upgraded and packaged Marcelo Garcia' moves really well.
But Gracie' developed leverage RIGHT??? The whole thing is pretty much fakery to begin with.
Except and I repeat Marcelo Garcia.
I mean it's apples to apples. He taught at columbia in a professor's capacity. Intro or not, it's not a great exaggeration to say "he taught at columbia." What are people supposed to say, "Oh, John taught intro level undergraduate courses at columbia as a grad student?" They're not letting Joe schmo teach anything at Columbia, and if you know anything about John it's not an insane notion to believe he could have been a full fledged professor if he so desired. Practically it makes no difference.
Spoken like a true academic.
It’s 2024. Nobody else cares about titles and papers. Danaher delivers in spades in the real world.
Can't wait for the full show! I almost never watch podcasts but what Craig is doing is getting me hyped!
"hey turn it down...I'm 32 years old" lmao
Craig quickly becoming the biggest personality in BJJ
Craig and Renato laranja are the best
Craig is the man in every sense of the word. Talk about brass balls. The guy might be changing the entire game forever
Jon Jones is not a man, don’t say that, there are so many allegations
Really like Craig. Mercurial and light-hearted personality in a sport that takes itself a little too seriously.
Craig Jones bantering is very British Irish auzzi new Zealand culture, taking the bait is like the best thing ever.
You sound like a teenage girl
@@sterlHAsilva that's kinda weird to say. A little too weird.
@@sterlHAsilvayou look like one of
@@sterlHAsilva odd take. Because when you read something, you don’t actually hear anything. Seems like you have teenage girls on your mind.
gabi is such a good sport for taking the match
Craig may be the 2nd best grappler in the world but he is definitely the best troll in the world. And legit a pretty cool dude. He makes a really great point about the brazilians in this interview.
He's not really close to 2nd best. He's not the best grappler in his gym.
@@TomPraytor I bet you’re American. Thus proving Craig’s point in this clip.
@@Codie__i bet an american beats you at whatever you love doing. Not everyone keeps up with inside jokes about craig lol, relax
@@youngornitier ouch, you got me mate
@@TomPraytorhe beat Tye and Meragali last ADCC. He’s def close to second best with Mica and a few others. Stop hating.
The chat we’ve always wanted
Why would we want a chat with a silver medalist
@@markjohnston3923who the f are you ? 😂 sush mate
Tare
Honestly...The fact that the brother picked sides with Craig says everything.
Chris' shirt is one of those buy-off-Amazon shirts. Very glad to see he doesn't blow his money on BS brands. Says a lot about a person honestly
Idk where he picked it up but it's a sleep token shirt.
The brand of the shirt is StreetX. It's an Australian clothing company for BJJ. Craig gets paid to wear their merch on podcasts like this.
Clearly the sponsorship isn't working so hot because one guy thinks it's a band shirt, and everyone else thinks it's crap he bought off Amazon.
@@_GOD_HAND_he was talking about chris, not craig. reading comprehension friend
Danaher is a savant, Gordon is the best grappler on earth, and Craig is the second best at everything but is still the coolest mafuvka in martial arts. CJI was dope!
I’m new to the BJJ community and have just discovered Craig jones after all his recent promotion. Someone fill me in on the Ryan Gordan and jones beef?
Gordon has tapped him and Craig has never won shit. Good bjj but always falls short so now he just trolls instead of doing competitive bjj and losers idolise him 😂
I mean....he hasn't beaten Ryan but coming 2nd in the best grappling tournament in the world isnt doing nothing lol
“Gordon, is UNQUESTIONABLY the best grappler in the world.” Said by the man himself 👏😎
Very candid, objective and transparent but still light-hearted. Really enjoyed this.
The Top G of jiujitsu
The G spot of jiujitsu
G for gay
The bottom G of jiu-jitsu
Inventor of gayppling
lol no… miles away form Gordon
“I’ve said worse things to my friends and relatives.” 😂
Jones is the homeboy that you can’t ever slip up around or he’ll roast the shit outta you 😂
That sleep token shirt. 🔥
"It's not at my house anymore" haha guessing he realized it was a bad idea to broadcast he has a million dollars cash at home.
5:50 oh my gosh this is gold lmao
Need Danaher on the pod Chris. Know he's known as goat bjj coach but would love to hear more about his philosophy + life.
no
joe rogan experience
Lex fridman has a couple interviews with Danaher
An out of form Gordon turning up and winning CJI is a pretty solid flex
He would too
Then take an Uber to the ADCC super fight and win
Out of form? Na
That would be the biggest move ever, Gordon and Craig headlining CJI. Pay per views would be through the roof!
Gordans the greatest grappler ever but Craig could go down as the guy who has done the most for the sport of grappling. CJI was a masterpiece of using Mma's huge fanbase to watch grappling... for free, very smart guy.
Seeing the serious Craig Jones face its amazing. This guy is an amazing and smart human being.
I think the problem with Gordon Ryan is that isn't a team guy... He's the best grappler in the world but a lone wolf... And that's odd in jujitsu because it's such a heavy team sport, what can you do alone? Gordon didn't get to where he is by himself, he was smart/lucky and had other phenomenal guys around him.
Where Craig Jones is the world's greatest big brother... I don't personally care if he's the world's "2nd" best... He's my favorite.
ADCC would probably pay Gordon behind the scenes just to ensure he shows up there. In fact, he should be cryptic about it and see what they throw at him lol.
Kudos to Craig .. master brander; insightful; excellent grappler; 'diss ruptor' - making waves on a landscape that, at times, can be a little too smooth.
Craig is wildly fucking intelligent. Loved watching this clip
CJ: "Test the waters of equality"
Craig jones is one hilarious fellow
Craig Jones doing a good job marketing this whole event. Stoked to see him making a difference for the people out there
Great interview. Just became a Craig Jones fan.
I am brazilian, and my GOD I loved Craig's point. It's 100% true, he got it on point. I like the dude even more now
It’s literally Joker (Craig) vs Batman (Gordon) philosophy.
More like mister Mxyzptlk vs Martian man Hunter
Or flash vs superman.
Don't insult batman like that
Craig hinting that the CJI is to adcc like no gi competitions are to gi ones now is insanely accurate
Not disagreeing with Craig when he says Danaher has a weird personality but thinking he's not in the same boat is hilarious. There's something off about all these blokes. Residuals of staph infection made their way to the brain perhaps.
Looks like the animosity between gr and cg is actually a ploy to raise the value of a match. Sure though, neither actually wants to lose so the animosity may be fake but the match will be real.
Now put on a judo tournament during the olympic games
The only issue is this, ADCC is run by Abu Dhabi who can pretty much bankroll what they wish. Won’t they just step up the funding??
They've refused
craigs said that even if they do as a response, its still a win for the sport. either way its pushing the sport forward and helping the athletes which someone needed to do at some point
These dudes are so obsessed with Gordon
It’s a segment and related to current events
@@robertacevedo5601 They come off as stalkers, only time Gordon talks about them it’s when he’s asked and it takes literally half a minute to address them cause they aren’t worth talking about
@@jackapples1if they didn’t talk about Gordon in every podcast or interview the entire B team would be irrelevant in the sport because they can’t win a match to save their lives lol the only one that can produce is NickyRod and his matches are literally painful to watch as he stalls until OT every time because his grappling without John is subpar.
I sincerely appreciate what Gordon Ryan AND Craig Jones has done for the sport of Jiu jitsu by bringing eyes to it that were never before there. Both these gentlemen will be considered pioneers despite their differences and hopefully will become household names among people that aren't even knowledgeable about Jiu jitsu such as Muhammad Ali and Mike Tyson were for boxing, John McEnroe was for Tennis, and Mark Phelps was for swimming. Personally, I like the atmosphere at B-Team and have had the opportunity to train there a couple of times with some great athletes.
Sorry to bust your bubble but BJJ fighters will never be household names unless you actually practice it.
“ I think your tournament is In trouble if your mum is defending it “ 😂… cold 🥶 blooded
where is the full video?
I could make a whole video about how I feel about Craig Jones. Dude is a master marketer. He's changing the face of professional BJJ by challenging ADCC and hosting an event with the biggest prize pool on the same weekend the ADCC world championships are going on.
With that said.....the funding for his tourney is not disclosed....the way he is going after ADCC is very aggressive and strange. I think competition is good, but this guy seems to do nothing but trash talk ADCC, and Gordon.
Craig is a freaking legend..his humor is epic, phenomenal bjj ..doing great things for jj
A lot of talk of how this will overtake Adcc reminds me of all the mma companies that have popped up with large bankrolls claiming they will take down the UFC. A few are still around but are not really challenging the top of the game. CJI is just beginning and I truly hope it changes the game and make the sport grow. But it's difficult to be sold on a brand until they have ran multiple shows and prove a business model.
This is the most serious I’ve seen Craig, I think there’s something about being around Americans that make Craig extra Australian and goofy lol
This is the episode I've been waiting for for years since modern wisdom has begun
Thank you, sir chris Williamson
Chris Williamson wearing a Sleep Token shirt… just when I thought the dude couldn’t get any cooler 🤘
As an American I agree not enough of us are into good banter. Only like 30% of dudes here will truly take the piss with each other both literally and figuratively.
Don’t ever call laying on your back with your legs up and your ass out a fight….
Huge credit for keeping Craig serious for a few minutes
Craig has been a marketing genius forever. Nothing surprises me with this guy 👏👏💪
Best guest ever.
The brazilians are in disadvantage? How so? The amount of BJJ knowledge in brazil is beyond what we've got anywhere, and marketing? Brazil has got 200 million people. They can easily be a start and marketer their brand.
He's saying it's harder for the brazillians to go to english-speaking markets and sell good products(instructionals) or sell hype because if the language barrier. Even bernardo and marcelo still have accents....

How about less opportunities. They would need to hold jobs down and not train full time among other things
you know so little about the world
If you have also watched Ben Shapiro and his speech rhythm it mirrors that of Gordon Ryan. In my opinion they're both displaying aspects of autism / mild savant personalities. This gives them unique focus and detail retention that makes them incredibly able in their fields. Gordon clearly obsesses regarding understanding position and how to counter. Shapiro has immediate verbal and factual recall and his speech tempo can appear speeded up. Gordon also does this.
Hahaha gotta have a sense of humor we are always talking smack to each other keep doing your thing fam much love from Michigan
HUGE W Craig Jones!! You can just tell he’s genuinely a good person. He’s doing a good thing
5:53 Craig with the ruthless comebacks
I didn't know that Gordon was a Republican. Now I like him even more. Although I can take the smack talk because I like to give it. Can't be too sensitive in this world.
All smoke, mirrors, and charm aside, the main story about Gordon Ryan and Craig Jones is that Jones is MASSIVELY jealous of Ryan. He has the charm to win the PR war but the heat that's there is Jones being green with envy and good with his words. Jones picks apart Ryan with such insight and detail it's clear he's thinking constantly about him.
It all depends on what you value in life.
Craig just set in motion life changing events for many people.
@@sushinfudoshin8991 If he can maintain someone willing to lose 3 million per event he is the man. Unprecedented.
@@sushinfudoshin8991 If, however, he's embarrassed the Sheik, who thought everyone respected him as the godfather of submission grappling for losing money for 25 years on ADCC, and now he's seen as a cheapskate, and he leaves, and Craig's billionaire loses interest because he's not a lifer like the Sheik WAS, THEN Jones is the all-time jackass of grappling.
I personally find it remarkable that Craig Jones has the inner strength to train and compete so well, being a unic.
What's a unic
He had to say “the money is not at my house anymore for the record” probably because people advised him that people might try to found out where he lives and try to rob him 😂
Whay a funny bloke craig is. Trained bjj for 10 years and the b team youtube is the only thing that keeps me watching day after day
Is there a full pod? ✌️
Just an FYI, the link at the end of the video goes to the Dr Glover podcast
Craig is hilarious , and is terriffic for what these competitions need. Here he is, the peoples champion , loved and adored by the world with his very own nemesis.. the reigning king , who he used to train with..
Craig jones is my favorite bjj player and I literally don’t even watch bjj but i think he’s awesome
Don't click on the link afterwards as it's most definitely not more Craig Jones.
I like this guy.
Can’t wait for this one. Craig seems really well spoken here.
Nice collab haha👏
Big respect to Craig Jones. Good man, good words
Craig Jones going on a tour
Craig is marketing the heck out of this event. He is not just a pro in jits it seems now.
Craig rocking the middle aged white dude New Balances…hell yes!
Hats off to Craig.
Just pure Facts
Osss!🤙
I expect him to call it battle of the sexies...
Hey, does The B-Team have a travel van? I walked out of my him yesterday morning and I saw a big black and red detailed van that had a logo that said “The B-Team” in a style that definitely resembled the B-Team style of logo. It was in Maine though, but that could be possible because a lot of people do seminars and retreats here in Spring/Summer when weather is nice…
Love this man
How can you not just get a complete kick out of Craig….dude reminds me of the funny guy on a job site….jiu jitsu needs him.
5:54 That laugh lmao!
People just don’t get the Aussie humor! Irish work there for 20 years and I love the piss take and banner!!!!
I didn't even know he was from South Australia 🦘 I worked at Roxby downs years back, That place is hot 🔥🥵 asf in the Summer ⛱️🌞
Here's what I like about this. Nobody's faking gender to compete. Both have agreed to this, knowing who and what they're up against.
Nothing wrong with being a conservative & calling out government overreach or their policies which make their citizens poorer and unsafe.
In Australia, they took peoples guns away. Now, they can be arrested for expressing their (non-violent) opinion online. Furthermore, in America, when your friends bust balls, it's all for fun, but when some random dude talks smack, they'd be ready to back it up.
Dudes representing a police state(country), dude shouldn’t be talking about politics
