Legend has it Danaher was born in a rash guard.

[@yannikbaltes3552]

He actually was asked this question and he said "i didnt come out of the womb wearing a rashguard, but i went into many wombs wearing one!" :D Guy is a legend

Reborn so to speak

Only about 2 more years before Nicky Ryan gains 50 lbs of muscle over the summer... courtesy of his sister in law's 'nutrition' plan haha

[@chadam2010]

She'll just incorporate some Açaí in his diet lol

[@champ8605]

Yeah because everyone else is natural. Gym bros juice to look good and pro athletes where money and reputation on the line are totally natural.

[@s23900]

@@champ8605 That is one way to look at it.. at the same time, he and Natalia released a DVD and ebook about how to "Get Swole as a Grappler" in which they talk about "hard work" and proper "nutrition".. just seems dishonest if the guy is actually juicing - which there is no hard evidence of. He could be natural sure, but the circumstances of his miraculous muscle gain make me skeptical. It still doesnt take anything away from the fact that he is clearly technically superior to all of the people he fights. I'm still a fan.

[@s23900]

@@chadam2010 "Incorporate" i.e. 'inject', "Açai" i.e. steroids, and "diet" i.e. 'his ass' hahaha

[@champ8605]

@@s23900 my comment could be taken in bother ways. But I meant of course Gordan is juicing and so is a majority of pro athletes. their careers rely on them winning so if anything that could help them of course they're going to do it. Nutrition and training do play a major part still, you can't just take steroids and expect to be Mr Olympia. Steroids mean they can train and recover faster, Gordon is still putting thousands of hours of hard work for him to get as good as he is.

What a TALENTED bunch of People Training Under the Great John Danaher, I Trained under John Back in 2003/4 (early mornings) and it was awesome. sometimes id go at nights and train Renzo's class and it was an HONOR to train in the presence of these 2 JIU JITSU MASTERS

[@mattybee1856]

He isn't brown enough. Pretty simple.

[@ramirospinelli6453]

if you even read the ruleset it makes perfect sense. Positional point did not count, idk why Danaher even mention it

[@s23900]

@@ramirospinelli6453 I didn't read the rule set. However, if that is true then, the rule set is shit. Launching attacks that were never going to succeed shouldn't be rewarded. The rules should reward things that would actually lead to success in a real fight - playing patty cake doesn't win fights and the points should reflect that.

[@adamabbas1487]

@@s23900 I think we would need to see the entire match. The refs should count points based positions more strongly than going for submissions without dominant position.

‘Brogrip’ Americana hit this rolling today, pretty much what Gordon hit

[@adamabbas1487]

Nice matches based on the highlight. G. Ryan has an interesting approach to the win. He can win even when letting their opponents play their A game. Other contenders for being the goat would shut down their partners game before they could play their A game. Marcelo Garcia and Roger Gracie come to mind.

[@kogrady2409]

That’s a huge part of Danaher’s bjj philosophy. He sees lots of openings when an opponent is attacking so his guys go from being in an inferior position right into attacks instead of the traditional route of getting back to neutral by recovering guard and then working towards a dominant position and a submission. It really changes everything and makes opponents must less confident about attacking submissions.

[@ddg-fi5bp]

@@jeffbrazil6950 Yeah but has Marcelo been able to effectively have that many students dominate in the game? What Danaher brings is his analysis and his systems that make success replicable.

14:10 I did Jujitsu for 10 years but stopped back in 2009 or so and my memory in some respects has faded. But it seemed to me like both of them are highly skilled, of course, but the black guy seems to be using more brute strength and great cardio to overwhelm the other guy and force a submission. Not that there's anything wrong with that that was my style as well (I sometimes tried overwhelming the opponent or wearing them down due to my strength and gradually would find a submission).
