@@Synthetic-Rabbit That’s irrelevant. No matter who you are education is important. He still needs to develop reading and writing skills, and you can’t do that as a dropout. Let’s say Nicky wants to write his own Jiu-Jitsu book, he can’t do that with less than a 9th grade writing ability. Learning is a lifelong endeavor, that’s why people like Kevin Garnett took college classes after signing a $126 million contract.

Rumors had it that one of the key issues for the split was due to splitting of the rent when big gord passed away. I’ve seen it was brought up many times in the past but it was something about the split of living expenses between those who were staying with Gordon Ryan that either created or added more issues for the team. I’m not saying it’s the truth, but I’ve heard about it more than once.

@@drbray Cnl. Kurtz in the Film ‘Apocalypse Now’ was a colonel who went AWOL through PTSD & left the U.S. Military to start his own small army, formed of local, indigenous villagers and tribesmen. He goes on his own war, but his tribe doesn’t really side with the U.S. military or Vietcong. Basically he’s a nutcase broken by the evil actions made by the U.S. military and Vietcong respectively and decides himself to go on a rampage killing and torturing people against his tribe. Despite what I’m telling you; the film isn’t actually really about the Vietnam war at all and is more to do with good vs evil, genius vs insanity, it’s really worth a watch. Loosely based on Joseph Conrad’s heart of darkness but sent during the Vietnam war.

John alone could be a lot to blame for not being able to adapt his management style for different personalities. For people like Gordon and Meregali, who are both perfectionists and incredibly confident, John’s style is probably perfect. However, it’s not a one size fits all. Not everyone has bags of confidence and high self esteem. Some people need to be encouraged, some need to be humbled.

You kind of have to read in-between the lines. Craig says he left *with* Nicky/backed him. That plus some other interviews definitely makes it seems like it was something between him and Gordon. I doubt Danaher was really involved. Dude lives BJJ and it seems like he only acknowledges the drama insofar as he feels it will affect competitive performance. As for the what lit the conflict who knows… I feel like in the DDS you’re either super chill or have the social IQ of an insecure middle schooler. Add in some steroids and honestly it was only a matter of time.

@Kodiak Combat Collective are saying that B Team has increased Danaher’s rate of innovation? Maybe that was a typo in your comment. Either way, Danaher’s innovation is to leapfrog people’s training to reach a goal. Case in point, Bodoni and Meregali. Their quick improvement is in direct correlation to the way Danaher teaches. That is something I’m not seeing from the B team guys. Danaher said it himself that B team is still using his system so they don’t really need him, BUT they aren’t getting any new information from him, coaching, tactics, etc. So, I disagree with your opinion of my comment being myopic. And Danaher isn’t an infallible god…but currently he is the best Jiujitsu coach of this era. I doubt that can be disputed.

I’m late to the party, but here’s my guess about what happened. If Gordon is even half as cocky on the training mats as he his on social media, he probably couldn’t handle Nicky Ryan getting good and stealing some of his thunder. He was so desperate to be the best that he was willing to shit on his own brother in the process. It’s cool that he won ADCC 3x in a row, but it’s truly unfortunate that his own brother wasn’t there to cheer him on. My brother and I are the same age gap as Nicky and Gordon, and I’d be devastated if my brother wasn’t in my corner. Gordon Ryan strikes me as someone who is financially successful, but it ends there.

It had sth to do with living expenses and splitting rent, this is basically confirmed🤦♂️... how ignorant and clueless ppl like you can be coming up with theories like this... get a grip of yourself man, you sound like a conspiracy theorist😅 Maybe you're talking about yourself here and projecting your own extreme insecurities onto other people but no one is gonna stop talking to their brother for damn near a year because they weren't in their corner for a match, wtf is wrong with you?

The fact that Gordon's cocky persona has hurt your fragile ego to the point where you have to come up with these kinda bizzare explanations in order to attack his character is honestly pathetic. Multiple people who are close to Gordon and have trained with him have already come out and said that just like Danaher, his online person is nothing like he's in real life. He seems to actually be a pretty chill and humble dude behind the cameras.

Someone must bloody know! It's so annoying. It's got to involve a woman or big gord in some way. The split of the rent and alike isn't big enough to hate your brother. I know they're cooling now but there was hate present.

Honestly given the reason they split I'm glad it's not public. And no, don't bother asking me for the reason i won't reply. All I'll say is the B-team (especially Craig) kind of spell it out in a trolling way. It's very personal and could lead to possible felonies.

@@glitchdigger It’s definitely not true. Genetics isn’t going to give you the ability to sub a black belt by your second week. Wrestling experience won’t allow you to sub a black belt by your second week either.

As a brown belt who has been f*cked up by a collegiate wrestler on his first week, I think you underestimate the power of some knowledge combined with size and sheer athleticism. What is more believable to you, that Nikky Rod went fromcompletely useless white belt to the top 0.01% of the sport in 18 months, or that he came in with an incredible baseline and that wrestling is extremely useful for submission grappling?

Flawed analysis. Show me a high schooler that can open up his own academy that would easily draw 50-100 students daily. At $200 a head that's $10-20k a month - rent + mats.

@brianevans4975 4 ай бұрын
The actual rumor is Gordan made Nicky fuck his girl. I’m not joking. Also withholding steroids for petty reasons, abusive language, Gordan being the only one JD cared about, disagreements about the move to PR. If you search around the BJJ subreddit you can find more. All rumors though. No one has talked.

Isnt craig jones actaully a jitsu sparing partner of Israel Adesanya? if it is , sounds like Adenasanya might be improving ground game constantly but we just did not have the privilege to see it during fights as he manages to keep it on the feet :)

Craig corners Alex for his fight but because of the city kick-boxing connection, I think he’s trained with Izzy a few times, doesn’t corner him or do camps though
