[@theguardian3431]

Watching this hoping no one walks in on me intently looking at 2 dudes rolling around in a bed. 😂

[@charliec2966]

I DON'T GET THE JOKE?

[@lastactionhero7541]

We have enough issues without them doing jiu jitsu in bed…

[@caballosgt5271]

Haha jitsu shit

[@dr.outalebconsulting5717]

Hhhhhhhhhhhhh

[@songbird9444]

Lmaoo

[@craighanaumi]

Congratulations to Brian and the team! Gracie Breakdown with the Sleeper Hold 😂🏆🙏🏽

[@hotredtiger316]

That arm triangle is no joke.

[@thefilmpoets]

Only Render could take a victory breakdown and turn it into a sales pitch. Best salesman in the game.

[@SF_Native]

What a great scrap. From the drama of the ankle to almost getting finished to the transitions that lead to the head and arm. Great job!!! 👏🏼

[@molobeats2880]

6:14 my landlord walked into my spot, having headphones on with my pants down didn't help the situation

[@thedeep2202]

Hell no bro

[@graciegjj]

Prefers softcore 2024

[@chrissaldana4519]

😂Best comment by far!!!

[@ScorpionSuerte]

Brutal

[@_spacemonkey_7079]

You should've asked him to roll

[@joaomattos]

After seeing the finish I couldn't wait to watch this breakdown. Congrats!

[@Ninjaturtle199]

An amazing finish definitely got to work on that when I train thank y’all for the break down .

[@maedhrosv8449]

Glad to have you back T-City. Good performance tonight. Beautiful choke and big heart as always.

[@gabriellandrum87]

Why did we have to wait so long! Lmao thank you guys. Thank you Rener & Brian. Congratulations amazing. Next 145 Lb champ!

[@JohnSmith-pg9ns]

I like Brian but let's be real here. He's not taking Ilias power or taking him down.

[@nikmo7360]

Itd be pretty sweet if he got champ because hes one of my favorite fighters but Ilias and Volk and even Max are on another stratosphere.

[@parkosterwich7274]

It's the fight game. Some pinheads like you gotta learn the hard way ​@@JohnSmith-pg9ns

[@DarkWarrior_1]

Ortega can't take those heavy punches lets be real he was getting dropped by Yair who has not half as good boxing as Topuria and Ortega is not taking down Topuria with that weak wrestling. Ortega is the easiest match up for Topuria in the top 5. Max, Movsar or even Arnold Allen has better chance against Topuria than Ortega.

[@graciegjj]

You just never know I know he looks flashy right now but he can get choked too!! 🥊🤼🥋😤

[@ckennedy109637]

i love these breakdowns

[@MadrmanX]

Great fight, great jiujitsu! It was a pleasure to watch the fight with friends from training. Thank you so much.

[@drbkjv]

Solid og Gracie Jiu Jitsu 🙏🏼 🔥

[@robmiller194]

This is a beautiful breakdown! Thanks Coach and T-City for your time to do this... Just awesome Blessings from Canada. Your Back Bro!

[@Vegas_Des]

Best sleeper hold ad!!

[@anthonyb.7340]

I have never seen that arm triangle adjustment ever. Definitely want to try this next time i roll

[@graciegjj]

Yes

[@mattk1358]

They gotta keep something back for the victories :)

[@SethKBaldwin]

There's also a gi variation where the right hand grabs inside the sleeve and it's an Ezekiel choke from behind the neck.

[@enkidughom2508]

Same that islam did with Olivera.

[@SethKBaldwin]

@@enkidughom2508 My memory is that Islam did the standard arm triangle lying on his stomach, not this modified one where Brian was on his knees and shot his left arm through the gap.

[@christophercambronero5086]

I was waiting for this masterpiece

[@albertsimpsonvideo]

Nice job!

[@medicinemanboxing3222]

As a boxer, I’ve always loved studying every other combat form..I love to learn anything and everything I can. I learned some great little Gems from this video, and it was also refreshing to see Brian come thru so much adversity and come out on top, as well as being so humble in victory. Thanks for the Knowledge guys, and very happy for you all. Best wishes 👍👊🙏

[@user-gy4re2js5t]

Awesome brake down, congratulations TC!!

[@katyacrossthesea]

[@michaeladam3792]

[@Torymorgan9]

[@geesung4444]

BRIAN, BLINK TWICE if you need help. lol

[@kaznewton8378]

That’s a sick transition when they turn away from the arm triangle 🔥

[@HollywoodWestern]

Love these videos!

[@cosme2032]

Felicidades! Hate fights when my favorite fighters have to fight each other. Thanks for breaking down submission, just submitted 3 at gym last night w/it.

[@roidrage630]

[@butt-wad3109]

Met Brian and Rener about 10 years ago when I took my two little boys to Bully Camp. Was an awesome week with some quality instructors, really fun!!

[@onilara4602]

What we was waiting for 💯💯💯

[@wolfcremo7322]

Best sleeper hold Ad out there ❤️

[@oddswithyourkind]

Was hoping to see this. Good work.

[@kevinnoble7532]

The amount of knowledge you have in the fight game and specifically grappling is insane - as a former HS wrestler and a MMA fan, I love this breakdown. Props to my guy T-City on the W!!

[@d0wnpour]

Great insights. Brian showed tremendous heart again. The Sleeper Hold commercial was pretty cringe though lol

[@Sherpa_k2]

Best octagon spider corn rows EVER!!!

[@TA-hf6si]

That was a rough first round! Well done bouncing back. Love the breakdown.

[@jamnstuff6675]

Timely and generous video. Thx Bry 4 sharing while healing; thx Ren 4 lessons learned. Bry is one sly and humble guy. Props! Luved yur respect to the Lord JC @ post-fight credits. U r blessed

[@vaijr.5004]

Great win and fight. I gotta try this variation of that choke.

[@michaelconner4841]

You know Rener has won the mind games when he says the situation and before he re-introduces the sleeper hold I think “man, T-city needs the sleeper hold.” I know the key indicator for the sleeper hold😂

[@maafa21MustSee]

This was a great and entertaining fight. Congrats

[@rodrod1515]

Amazing story! GREAT post fight speech👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@johnscustomsaws]

Amazing fight my man 💯 From scaring the entire UFC fanbase who thought you blew out your ankle... to coming back from being rocked and absolutely putting it on him!!! Congrats T-City 👊

[@georgekline3137]

Congrats, Brian and the whole team! So happy you're finally back after 1-1/2 years!

[@tysonwilliams8730]

Congrats Brian and all! Great application of GJJ, great performance

[@danielscountry9884]

Love their friendship

[@el.gonzalo]

What a great video guys! Love Gracie JJ!! Great testimony of faith as well T-City!! God bless.

[@rajunaidu7751]

In 2012 I watched a high Renergy T city breakdown of a fight and now in 2024 I’m watching the same thing 😄

[@JoseHernandez-mn1ic]

Fire video! Great fight for Brian! 🔥

[@WendellDebassige]

Wow ! So happy for yall. You guys are living!!!! Bless yall

Awesome bro

[@xonious9031]

this is what you call a true passion for the art

[@jaycraig674]

Really cool to see this video

[@TheeCertSmoker]

I got tears in my eyes watching this.

[@jeba12]

Awesome !!!

[@georgeherrera9464]

Great job Brian & Rener. I wish you guys continued success.

[@StayConnectedEV]

Wow this was one of the best candid interviews and truly much respect Brian!

[@NexusGuru]

beautiful defense , beautiful takedown, and amazing submission probably the first of its kind in the ufc

[@eddiegazeta4203]

World Class People. Amazing journey!

[@lusthateenvy]

Great breakdown. And this guy just sold me a sleeper hold pillow. I was ready to buy even though I dont need one, but they're sold out!

[@JustLaney]

Brian seems like such a chill dude man

[@ericcampos6755]

Sick stuff!!!

[@CDPodcast]

When you post those elbows on the mat, it makes D’arces absolutely concrete the way he used that with an arm triangle is going straight into the ole notebook. Pull those shoulder blades together and use that forearm like a blade, work it back and forth into the neck. Absolutely brutal. Well done, T-City.

[@isisdaddy1]

Between T City and Fluffy, im not sure who is more badass. Those kinds of fights and fighters inspire the hell outta me.

[@toddjohnson5176]

Welcome back champ 🥋

[@PabzIsRed]

This is awesome

[@AntigravityBatteries]

Wow that was super fun... you guy gotta keep doing this. Love to hear how it going down from the fighter not some analyst!

[@edwardgarza7819]

So glad Brian is back! So cool to see that great relationship between Gracie and Ortega!

[@SerenityAK]

This is so good congratulations Brian. Rener is the best!

[@CinematicTendency]

Fight of the night in my book! 🔥

[@Falkov]

Man..that ankle roll..as you guys retell it, it feels like such a crazy moment. Congratulations. ,{^_^}”

[@jremi66]

Hahaha I was thinking the same thing ...is there another big announcement coming out lol

[@kaymill5565]

Beautiful! Brian looks so grounded and peaceful!

[@user-qg9xo3eq3l]

Congratulations! Be the best and become champion!

[@loadedfilmstokyo8380]

You can really feel the coaching and mentorship has been since his teens. Very cool.

[@jcooma]

6:00 🤣 God, I just love the Gracies!!!

[@elangelalvarezz]

Presentiaaa el trianguloooo, me da gusto qué haya regresadooo y qué mejor manera qué con su marca personal 😎 T-city baby🔥 SALUDOOS PAL BRAYAN DESDE HERMOSILLO SONORA 🇲🇽🌵 Shadows Rener 👏

[@toddjohnson5176]

Congratulations. You are the best.

[@tylerkay825]

Seeing the light in gracies eyes while he talks about the Oretga win is so wholesome. These dudes deeply care about eachother.

[@romomariah8177]

MUCHAS FELICIDADES ORTEGA💪 NI TE DESPEINASTES Y ME QUEDE SORPRENDIDA 👍 QUE BIEN HABLAS ESPAÑOL

[@DarkLight-Ascending]

More of THIS.

[@MasterSnoopMenuce]

[@IAMDC322]

Awesome to see the success you two have had. Proud of Ortega my long lost relative 😁👍🏼

[@supermansouri]

That was crazy!!!! What a warrior!!! T-City!!!!

[@paulboozer5726]

When will the sleeper hold be back in stock?

[@monitorlizard9971]

When I think of Ortega I remember the fight he had with Volk. Dude held his own in the standup and actually caught volk in like 3 submissions where each time everybody thought it was all over for Volk. This was super savage prime volk, and we almost had a new champion that night multiple times during the fight. It shows to me that having a base of gracie bjj training can land you a championship or contender spot for the best fighter in the world, in the worlds most Prestigeous combat sports organization. Unfortunately Volk that night just had or has such superior gas tank than most other athletes. But if it wasn't for Volk gooning it up with shere strength and genetic superiority we would of had a champ. I hope Ortega gets a title shot in his next fight. I was screaming so hard for him that night he fought Volk, it wasn't necessarily a disappointment he lost, through a fans perspective, but it was a damn good fight. This was also a damn good fight. I am glad Ortega has recovered from past fights and is still competing in prime form. Bravo!

[@stevenhardwicke6481]

Brain you are my man you and yayir are two of my favorite fighter s the fight was fantastic thanks for the good times

[@TheFlyFishingFilmmaker]

Brian is such an amazing guy! The respect he shows in the octagon is awesome. Congrats on the win ... and the neck pillow is pretty awesome ...

[@johnmaloney7174]
