awesome

That's what I thought too. That looked way more intense than any of the recent matches of Gordon's I've watched.

Meregali is probably gonna win ADCC Absolute and then Gordon will pass on the torch to him and just move on to mma or something. They're more valuable to each other as trainning partners

@@marwanshamsia4193 Bro Gordon will never fight MMA.

@@maxxismycat999 I hope he can keep making enough money grappling and coaching so he doesn't need to get into mma. I think the people we see trying mma from grappling are doing it because they need the money while their body is still up to it. I also hope Pena going into mma is out of love for the sport and not just for cash.

Probably due to less concern about getting caught in training and also more emphasis on pushing the pace to train in fatigue, as opposed to trying to conserve.

You talk as if a person who trains mostly Gi is completely clueless without it. It is still BJJ.

The dudes game was de la riva, pulling guard, and loop chokes. Yea it’s impressive. If it was easy to switch Gordon would have tried GI once in the past 10 years.

He's a fucking beast. He's quickly going to become the Prince. Once Gordon decided to retire, Meregali will take the crown and become King

​@@Nicatlotus i can confirm i train at a pure nogi school and all the gi only guys that come to our open mats feel 3 belt levels lower when they dont have the gi, they are physicaly strong and have ok defense but there is never any threat of pass sweep or sub, people that occasionaly train nogi or 1 day a week are lacking for the most part.

@@Nicatlotus on that level it is a different game

I agree you’re 100% right this is phenomenal I could watch this forever

this is because nicky rod catch him on a rnc and broke his leg.

@@lukerodriguez7908 and then he lost the match, AGAIN

@@Beastzz77 the entire world knows that Nicky Rod won that fight.

Peds help

@@Sui_Generis0 definitely

lol

Such classic GR, he just couldn't avoid a dig at Felipe, love it.

It reminds me of when geoerges Paint pierre said: i only train like 20-30 Minutes a day but on Maximum effort because i a fight u only go hard for like 20mins at max.

Ya I was getting mad like let me see the pass lol

Gotta hide trade secrets

We love jiu Jitsu so we want to see that portion of that but to the average spectator .. they want to watch the scrambles and takedowns and dynamic passing/guard retention sequences..

Smother choke

Nobody says that except Craig jones recently.

@@oldironsides4107 probably just building the hype for future matches 🤔

Bruh Gordon literally said he wasn’t athletic

@@ola_eboda lol, true

He's probably gonna win ADCC Absolute and then Gordon will pass on the torch to him and just move on to mma or something. They're more valuable to each other as trainning partners

​@@marwanshamsia4193 is this a real comment? there's a 0% chance Gordon quits bjj just because Meregali wins absolute

@@GiBJJIsForChildren At some point beating everyone again and again becomes boring to watch, mma is a new challenge

@@GiBJJIsForChildren he wont quit, but he did say he will focus on mma once his teammates can win other weight categories/absolute. It was a podcats he was speaking on ( joe rogan ? ).

@@kragi02 i seriously doubt we ever see gordon ryan in mma

Seems like that was the case

having been in the room, they can definitely go that hard for this period with zero submissions being hit. they're both extremely technical

He’s worse at giving cars away

How do you equate not keeping a car to diminished mental health? I'm not sure, but it was implied that he does this to maintain a uncomfortable environment to promote growth. It may appear insignificant, but I would bet at his level, every advantage, no matter how miniscule, could end up being a mental edge and even possibly, the deciding factor in a match. Or am I jumping out the window at joke and looking like a goofball? 🫣

Wouldn’t want to be the bottom guy when the top guy is going hard

I'm just here to watch guys hard

i think his jiujitsu would improve a lot more if he just stuck to the fundamentals of homelessness and took the bus to class. Better yet, walking would def improve his jj considerably

I never thought of it this way. Thank you so much!
