@@405bench4 That's only because Gordon is so fucking good. The fact he can even get a takedown when you've been getting tapped repeatedly the entire day is impressive.
For all the people wondering, the other guy Ryan is fighting is called Alejandro Tolmos, he is one of the best ( if not the best ) grappler we have in Peru in his category. Ive fought in sparring with him a while ago and he was a BEAST, its crazy to put in perspective the lvl of this sparring, but its just world class. Just amazing jiu jitsu from one of the best peruvian fighters and offcourse outstanding jj from one of the best of all time.
probably one of the coolest things I have seen in a Jiu Jitsu training room. AT 12:20 Gordan gets countered almost flawlessly. Such a sick counter, with perfect timing and speed, really cool to see that someone as methodical as mr GRONDAL himself can be countered so effectively on a move they are so comfortable doing. Then at 13:49 about 30 seconds later, Gordan counters the counter and gets a takedown. For him to realise what happened, recreate the situation and then apply a counter he came up with in that short amount of time is just unbelievable. Nice video thank you.
Watching Gordon roll is such a delight. Even if by some fault of his or an opponent's sneaky move he gets caught and taps , I dont think someone has better bjj technique than him.
It’s cool I didn’t notice this before. He’s not only going easy, he’s stopping after he hits moves to let the partner think of a way out, then he hits a counter to what they do. That way he reps multiple moves against resistance in each position.
Such a good match to watch. Really captures how your game changes when your smoked and how people who really have ture spirit fight to the death with every last breath they can dig deep and find. Fawkin excellent!
@@blumpkinspicelatte4580yeah tbh this reminds me of when people say Bjj guys hit a good double leg lmao . They generally don’t because the bar is so low
@@markd7762 Oh yeah you can see him give his partners time to figure out an escape. Still crazy to see someone that's so far ahead of where I'm at. So many levels to this.
You don’t take rounds like this personally if you train with enough world class people. Mostly you just laugh at yourself and steal as many techniques and concepts as you can.
Loving the technique he’s using. Ruotolos call it ruotolotine, Craig calls it a Rear Ezekiel, but really it’s just an arm triangle of sorts. Sort of like reverse darce, atleast the mechanics of it looks like a darce.
I'm wondering, how do you defend a back take from someone who can attack one side the regular RNC or on the side of the seatbelt that arm triangle? I guess you can't.
13:50 that left legged hop back Gordon did is just insanely amazing. Gordon goes from being leg swept earlier to the match, to full on bait countering the rolling partner with the same move. Gordon’s rolling partner is no joke either. The technique used to get out of Gordon’s body triangle was pretty cool to see.
DUDE THATS AN EASY MOVE JUST DO A S GUARD THEN EXTEND THE ARM YOU HAVE MOVING TO THE RIGHT SIDE. ONCE YOUR SITTING ON HIM HE CANT MOVE AND HIS ARMS ARE TRAPPED AGAINST YOU
@CowboyJnkinz DUDE LISTEN TO WHAT YOU ARE SAYING A COURSE IT CAN BE TAUGHT SO HE WOKE UP KNOWING HOW TO DO THAT???? ASK YOURSELF WHAT THING HAVE YOU JUST WOKEUP TO AND MAGICLY JUST KNEW IT WAIT FOR IT ANSWER. NOTHING
I've watched this a few times now and I'm blown away by it. I could watch this content for hours and hours. Just goes to show u don't need lots of edited videos and narration. Just ultra high skilled rolling. Even had to slow video down a couple of times to catch the hidden detail. If I had 1% of the flow and skill as these I would be happy..... Go on one more watch and then I'm done. Honest
This is how I feel when I roll with my instructor, always one step ahead. Repect to the other guy as he was countering very well. It amazes me with jujitsu and I particular when I watch back. Notice something new each time. Love this sport ❤
Dude, Im an AVERAGE purple belt. I just see the never ending pressure. Theres a point where you just wilt under that kind of dominance. You just know, you arent pulling any slick escapes. I wouldnt have been able to put up 1/32 of the fight Tolmos did.
Gordon Ryan is pretty scary to roll with. You look at him coming after you while you’re aware that you’re challenging the greatest Jiu Jit-su guy on the planet.
Imagine the training partner's girlfriend after practice- "Wow honey, what happened to you? Did you get run over by a steamroller?" Training Partner: "Yes. Yes, I did."
He doesn’t do any thing freakishly athletic, flashy or fancy. It’s all fundamental stuff. Like it’s simple and direct and common sense. It’s like when Magnus Carlsen plays the most common sense direct chess move yet all of us are thinking out of this world complex moves and theories.
5:59 and 9:14 - Gordon did the same thing on Dorian in the previous video. Wtf is that? Is his fist pushed into his neck in the bottom or what? Bro gonna do the same thing to Josh Saunders?
12:20 thats a win in my book.
That shit was beautiful ngl
if the takedown resulted in you still being on your ass 10 seconds later of what use what the takedown?

its wild what Gordon does to super high level black belts. By watching this he made him look like a blue belt. just mind blowing
Gordon made him look like a purple belt
BEAST MODE

This is beautiful Jiu Jitsu and so refreshing to see the top game back in vogue after years of leg noodling.

Gordon hits the foot sweep the first time at 6:49 as well. So they're both building counters and timing in real time.
Watching Gordon roll is such a delight. Even if by some fault of his or an opponent's sneaky move he gets caught and taps , I dont think someone has better bjj technique than him.
So good to see Gordon back in action. His dedication to perfection is inspiring!

Exactly bro. How nice would it be if Gordon just drop that attitude that he sells and embody this nice version that he shows on mats
@@gocasimiro Right? I can't imagine. I've never seen him crank a submission either. So methodical and patient.
Shit brother, you're right, I'll look at it again now analyzing what you say.
Such a good match to watch. Really captures how your game changes when your smoked and how people who really have ture spirit fight to the death with every last breath they can dig deep and find. Fawkin excellent!
13:23 that a terrible feeling having gordon ryan hunting you
😂😂😂 I saw him stalking him and I started laughing.
Nicky Ryan's brother is a scary hunter
his leg sweep/trip is so smooth. His opponent is standing with a strong base and then flat on his back thinking wtf just happened
It's not a strong base and it's slippery, the rest is true
Really not that smooth. Pretty poor technique actually. You want to see smooth foot sweeps watch Steve Mocco.
@@blumpkinspicelatte4580yeah tbh this reminds me of when people say Bjj guys hit a good double leg lmao . They generally don’t because the bar is so low
Glad to see him back training 🙌
Do they have a little corner there where grown men go to cry after a sparring session with Gordon?
Fuck I was thinking that same thing the whole time.
Dude just takes people's souls. I'd get absolutely mauled by him but a roll would still be fun. Seems like an awesome training partner.

Ah yes the predator technique @ 13:22 . He needs to teach us that and do a breakdown.

He is back ❤
13:20 was Gordon practicing for when he catches Craig finally in a Huston alley
such a weird guy lol
Gordon is scared of the alley or he would do CJI.
😂😂😂😂
Dominant. He’s prepared for everything. Props to his training partner, give it his all against the best grappler in the world.

Vj
Starting to see the arm in RNC appear more and more!
Ruotolotine
@@FredFerrari592 yeah exactly. he saw them use ruotolotine in the ONE champsionship matches
It is a great submission to be fair
Nice to see the King getting ready for CJI 👍
That sweep while opponent is on 4 is so slick , he uses his thigh/knee to brake that base. 3:42 🤯
Great display of exiting the body body triangle by defender at 4:90
Both have amazing jiu jitsu
i legit would cry, also he's taken this darce-esque choke from the ruotolos after seeing them win in ONE with it.
Big Dan hitting that nogi uchi mata in the background!
Time stamp?
Man that visit to the most powerful coven in Romania really paid off
masterclass...pure technical with no power&speed
No power LOLL.
That guy's sheer POWER is a sight to behold
Nice foot sweep micro battle you had there ! Fun watch
Wow props to Ryans training partner. I wouldn’t have been able to put up 1/2 the fight he did.
I wouldn't be able to put up 1/4 of the fight he did.
I wouldn’t be able to put up 1/8 of the fight he did
Dude, Im an AVERAGE purple belt. I just see the never ending pressure. Theres a point where you just wilt under that kind of dominance. You just know, you arent pulling any slick escapes.
I wouldnt have been able to put up 1/32 of the fight Tolmos did.
NExt DVD kata gatame from everywhere. I called it.
What was that arm triangle type choke that Gordon kept hitting ??
10:47 what's that sub called? pretty cool
It looks kata gatame from s mount
That foot sweep was pretty clean
wwhat take down does he do at 13:49?
What's that submission at 11:55? Like a rótulotine??
What choke was that at 10:47 ??
I love this old school style and how new wave are bringing it back. For a while there it was too much silly guards and leg locks
This is not remotely old school in any way
What “Old school” Jiu-Jitsu did you see here? 😂
@@MartialMind take down, pass, top pressure is literally old school jiujitsu. New school style jiujitsu is sit down, scoot, entangle legs
10:47 what type of choke is this?
🔥. Are we going to see training footage of his opponent too?
12:22 Christ, that fall was scary!
The body lock escape was really good
Love him, or hate him, he's the best.
Amazing
Looking forward to the C-Team competition at ADCC 😂😂
I wonder what that pressure feels like. It seemed like if Gordon was on top, his partner was just frozen. No options. Amazing.
I need that sweep
Nicky Ryans Brother is really improving, he could become a great grappler
i swear @2:48 the guy with the camera looks like Bo Nickel
If Bo was smart he would train with Gordon.
any chance we can get some rounds with gordan playing guard against small fast people?
Gordon Ryan is pretty scary to roll with. You look at him coming after you while you’re aware that you’re challenging the greatest Jiu Jit-su guy on the planet.
lol the small amount of energy gordon used is admirable. Its almost as if he was bored
Gordo is freaking relentless. Like a Zombie, forward...forward...forward.
Something about the mat noise that scratches my brain. Like white noise, or fire crackling.
Control that leads to submission looks more important to me from top position:)
That guy should not give up his back.
man...Gordon has really great hair. Not a joke, legit great hairline
4:25 Ruotolottine
14 minutes with the king sounds nice
sem TREMP, TESTO, STANO, WHAT GORDON'S PERFORMANCE WILL BE LIKE?
Gordon has been really into that weird arm triangle lately.
What does he call the weird arm triangle
It's the one the ruotolo brothers do. Arm in rear nakedness choke, off to the side slightly
@@admiralsuperior3 I don’t know, but knowing him and John it’s probably an “oblique kata gatame” or something lol
@@MrMrbrianbechtel His is more from the top though so he can keep the mount pressure.
It's the routolitine
The king looks good
Imagine the training partner's girlfriend after practice- "Wow honey, what happened to you? Did you get run over by a steamroller?" Training Partner: "Yes. Yes, I did."
thats brutal
Gordon should invite Jay Rod from B-Team to do a sparring round :)
why? it wouldn't be even remotely competitive. he would tap him more than he tapped this guy
The best

what is the choke name??
What rashguard does Gordon wears?
Future Kimonos, they’re a terrible company, take forever to deliver and customer service is not good
6:56
Relentless collar tie
This guy is good. He should compete.
He could make something out of this whole JiuJitsu thing someday.
nah i dont think he could make it to the finals for example, guys like craig jones would probably beat him
At this point , he has a Tyson effect. Not necessarily better than ppl , just has ppl beat psychologically
Seem like he’s constantly going for head and arm chokes from the back
What the hell was that first submission? Some one educate me please lol
give my man a break after the tap! lol
So Gordon gonna do CJI
5:59 and 9:14 - Gordon did the same thing on Dorian in the previous video. Wtf is that? Is his fist pushed into his neck in the bottom or what? Bro gonna do the same thing to Josh Saunders?
@@yangtroy1 Looks a bit like the Ruotolotine (arm-in RNC), but not entirely that. Idk I've never seen it.
Sideways katagatame
John DANAHER not in the room ?
Gordon doing trip giveaways every episode...
9:59 at this moment....
Do I like him as person...... no. But damn son. He is is undeniable. He is inevitable😮
Surely Ryan can find tougher sparing partners?
Gordon looks pretty athletic to me.
Is that big Dan back there makin milk deliveries?
Similar level opponent plz!
GR is building up to that. He's just getting back to form after dealing with health issues.
Gordon please make your own rashguardss
Like a hard driving, cold, rain... He's all over you....
Hunting the rear arm triangle, I see.
10:40 name of this scam
❤
❤️
Sensationak
6:00
Dude should sell a program to the military and law enforcement
If he keeps getting staph, why doesnt he wear longer rashguards and spats lol
That looks like the depths of hell!
he has been healed by the romanian witches
O que me parece é que eles nao treinam na vera
Gordon's grappling the Hunchback of Notre Dame.
