I trained at Gabe's gym for a little over two years - this guy is a monster. I came in as a fresh black belt, and maybe once in 2+ years of rolling with him did I threaten an actual submission. Don't feel bad about getting ragrolled by him, he's the real deal.

Braa I love it. The fact that you challenge yourself The fact that you're willing to travel and put yourself out there losing. That's what makes you a black belt. The white belt that never gave up.

I attended gabe’s gym for awhile, in Austin, Tx. He’s a small dude but he feels like 300 lbs when he’s on you. Really awesome dude.

Your roll with Kody Steele was incredibly entertaining! Shows how good of a black belt you really are, despite getting your ass handed to you by that first guy

Respect for showing that round. Real black belt shit.

I have so much respect for you bro you don’t just show all the times you win you show one of the few times you lose. And that’s the name of the game. Let the best athlete win total respect that you showed how good this guy was, and if he can handle you like that, he’s top of the food chain

the fact that Gabriel casually did a rolling back take on you nogi kinda blew my mind.

So i know him as the ref on WNO, and hes a fantastic ref. Pretty awesome to see him roll and i love this series your doing tyler. U got me hooked watching it all!

Love hearing you describe the details of the roll. Helps me connect all the missing pieces I wouldn't have while watching(which would be alot lol)

I see this guy reffing on WNO all the time, cool to get to see him in action.

The Riley Reid comment was outta pocket, and I love it.

The owner of the gym was at one time a ref for many world competitions that included being the ref while Marcelo Garcia competed.

Getting tapped out is a good thing. Teaches us where we are content when we shouldn't be, and our shortfalls.

When someone is better you learn so much more

In the last clip, the guy was so smooth, I love training with such partners. You know we both can go 100% but choose to keep it playful and creative

Love your humor Tyler! Not taking yourself too seriously is what makes you unique as a bjj youtuber! Keep going!

Gabe is my professor. And yea this is par for the course rolling with him haha. I love it though! He's always teaching us really solid technique.

I just recently discovered your videos and I have to say that although I enjoy seeing you test your skills in all these different gyms it’s the witty and often time’s hilarious commentary that keeps me coming back to watch, keep the up the good work and keep those elbows close.😉

I’m just here for the quacks

He was smooth and patient. clearly just a lot of experience here. Awesome video man.

Wow, he cut through you so calmly and what seemed effortlessly, bravo!

Great job Tyler ! I know that one has to be rough to share lol but now you know how all your opponents feel.

The roll with Cody steel looked so fluent Like it was really intense but at the same time really Controlled Amazing

Professor Gabriel is an absolute monster.

The secret tap technique had me dying

ive had the pleasure of training under gabriel in his gym once , he opened the doors for me and everyone was very nice, good to see them doing good 👍

It’s such a pleasure seeing people testing themselves. In my opinion it builds character, authenticity and integrity. All that good stuff.

Some times you’re the hammer and some times you’re the nail. Beautiful video

I trained at gabes for 1.5 year, got by bluebelt from him. Don't feel bad at all mate, I am 6'5 200 pounds and he ankle picked me and arm-barr'ed me all day. He had a D1 guy teach there for awhile so the wrestling level there is high. Gabe is the man,

Sometimes we're the hammer, sometimes the nail. Props for challenging yourself and for your humility.

Gabriel is the guy that referees at Flograppling most of the time right ?

This is really great at showing the levels. Love these vids.

Nice ankle pic on that blue belt! He was a lot stronger before his leukemia diagnosis but he’s fighting it like a champ and is definitely still a handful. 😅

Dude this type of content is very nice I literally tap on the video the moment I see a new one, Keep it up!

Really nice of you to go so easy on Gabriel :D Really though, it messes with you when you go into a roll expecting one thing and quickly realize the person is way way better than you thought. You feel a step or two behind the whole roll.

Fantastic roll vids. Great visuals and entertaining narrations. Keep up the Great work 👍

Guy was a BEAST! Tough roll. Good hustle though!✌

I love that youre humble enough to show your weakness.

Your word play is amazing...your skill is great. Love the vidz.

Now that's entertainment! Thank you!

Savage rolls dude! Entertaining and informative whether you're giving or receiving the beatdown. 🤙🤙

Great video really appreciate your content man thanks again

Great job bro That’s what’s beautiful about bjj you never know what you’ll learn or who you’ll learn it from

Enjoyed awesome skill set, technical and amazing pressure great roll 🤙🏻

I can't like your videos enough. Keep up the awesome work

Honestly amazing to see you constantly put yourself on show against some of the best.

Lol love the commentary, and the toe hold attempt too hahaha awesome.

thx i love these videos and find them very insightful

Yeah dude, I immediately recognized that first guy. Ain't no shame in that! Talk about a back take expert. 😂 And fun roll with Kody Steele dude, that was really good to watch. I'll have to take notes on that crucifix escape he did.

Lmao the secret Tap Technique! Bro your commentary is on another level! Thank you for the video

I wish Ben was on the roadtrip with you, spreading that Bathsalts love thru Texas

Respect you rock and show your rolls win or loose! 💪🏽🤙🏽❤️🎉👊🏽

I can totally relate! I started today at a new gym full of black belts twice my size.

showing yourself losing show great character. love your channel

Nice! That dude was no joke. Keep on getting it!!!

I absolutely love this dudes commentary LOL

Jesus that first roll at the new gym had some sick sequences in it. That's how I'd love to roll with someone some day

I respect you and your going with so many. This guy had a quiet look and very calm but….it seemed like absolutely nothing worked. The boss was a true master, no doubt. Just a complete domination and I say that respectfully. The guy was just crazy good.

Really enjoyed the roll from around 7 minutes in💪🤛👍👌🙏❤️👏👏👏

Sweet sweet losses - the place where we REALLY learn. Thanks for sharing!

Thx always a big learning

Good video respect for showing it.

I know there are a million different variables on any given day, but Gabriel looked to be the most impressive fighter in your (relative) weight class we've seen you against.

gym owner had great control looked like fun lol I'm a big chrisbrennan guy, kimura and guilotine as well but when you run into one of those old school position before submission blackbelts they really make you have to go an extra step

4:20 Bro you cracked me up 😂😂

Nice video! Gabriel é um monstro!! IJJ is the best gym in town osss

The random quack after the trip had me rolling

Rolling with me as if I owed him money. BWAHHAHAHHAHHAHAAaaaa🤣😂🤣

You are amazing in the scramble

Love the videos, I learn a lot, thank you!

Great storytelling. Cool that you show your vulnerabilities.

Great content man. You getting dogged by that guy reminded me of what happened today…I learned a guy who tapped me 2-3 times and dominated the roll is a 3 year black belt. I was thinking he was purple and was messing me up. I was getting discouraged and then I happened upon his FB profile today and whatdayouknow? Haha no wonder he wrecked me

Tyler the goat fr

fire as always

I love that he got you back for holding that toe sub for so long.

Tossed your Salad did he 😂

The writing here is 🔥🔥🔥. Now do that with your jiu jitsu.

Bro your commentary is funny as hell

Thanks for showing us there are levels in this game

Back to the best jokes😂

Impressive that you show when you get tapped and not only wins. Hr has to be really really high level :)

Commentary is SSS tier

Yo that dude is the Ref!!!

Excellent video 👍👍 ❤️💗Texas 💖

you convinced me to join a BJJ gym again after 4 years off thanks for that!

Love these videos

That roll with Steele looked fun as hell

Riley Reed 🤣🤣

Excellent video.

I just realized that’s the ref on Who’s Number 1! I’ve always wondered, “if he’s the ref, he must be really good.”

Isn’t that dude one of the referees for the WNO tournaments???? He looks familiar. What a beast ! Great work to you as well man excellent video

You get the Like, comment and additional watch time for all your corny but perfect self-deprecating jokes.

OMG- watched it a second time with audio. flash back when our local world class guy pops into our gym to beat us up like a teen rolling in the 5-7 year old class. On the plus side- he did not knee on belly you into tapping for being gassed.

Perfect format and awesome Say to do It

Props for posting a video of you getting smashed!

To me a good evening is finishing training after setting up people in my buggy choke traps then go home have a nice shower then have dinner while watching Tyler Spangler get flipped like a tortilla 😂😂 jk Tyler I love your videos man and huge fan of you

2:40 lmao!

The Kamora trap is my go to. Even if u don’t get the sub it’s still a great way to control them

I have had a bad day also but it makes us better

Welcome to Texas Tyler, God's country!
