I'm almost inclined to agree, but if you're the ref, you are aware of who these two are and that it is a contentious match; you don't want to be the guy who robbed the fans. I think he stopped this appropriately, as the slaps progressively come from out of the context of an exchange and just are symptoms of Cyborg's frustration and stalling.

[@chrisg1772]

That's the thing, Gordon actually acts very respectfully after each match. Gets his hand raised and is quiet. None of that screaming, beating his chest or falling to the ground fake crying. He simply says he's better than others, proves it, but is then good in victory.

[@alexg6705]

roids rage, what a loser. all respect for gordon.

[@skunk12]

Gordo: ... Cyborg: mpfff! *slap

[@TheMestreDosMagos171]

this is where Gordon got those slapping technics

[@paraconda94]

Hard for the Brazilians to realize they are slowly losing the one thing they have. Give it 5 more years and other countries will dominate the sport.

[@marlon4315]

This guy loses 2 times to felipe pena and just lost to fucking vinny magalhaes and you guys are talking like he's the best ever, come on, americans are just getting better because almost every great teacher from brazil now lives in us cause the want some american money, but you still can't compare the amount of talent coming from brazil than coming from other countries, bullshit comment.

[@marlon4315]

@wutup5566 you are comparing two diferent sports now, you cannot deny the fact that many awesome brazilian grapplers like marcelo garcia and the mendes brothers coming to the us helped the american scene to grow, but i think isn't close from brazil yet, cause if you look the population in the united states is way bigger than in brazil and the fact that almost every major jiu jitsu event is in the us now, is harder from brazilian athletes to compete in there, and still in the last ibjj worlds only 2 americans won they weigh class and 8 brazilians won , but i'm not denying that us have awesome grapplers like gordon ryan and musumeci and there's room for growth. Mma is a much more global sport, even from the 80s and 90s they had pancrase in japan, vale tudo in brazil, you had ufc in america , even in russia they had events, Brazil never really dominated mma as you say, in fact always was brazil and usa competing for the first place, but mma is evolving and many countries have great fighters now, like russia and many european countries and brazil still have contenders in almost every weight class, guys like moicano, marlon moraes, raphael assunção, edson barboza, paulo borrachinha, rda, jacare, johnny walker, pedro munhoz, antonio carlos jr and etc

[@itachiparku]

@wutup5566 Wow another ignorant biggot

[@glaucomartins4941]

@wutup5566 such ignorant

[@jaytrain_007]

yep, every brazilian was good until they got caught with the tainted meat lol@wutup5566

[@aplacetobewithmythoughts7428]

Did he go too far? He ran around him afraid to engage, then he slapped him whenever he got closed and even tried to punch him. Then he got DQ’d. He lost in the most embarrassing and unprofessional way he could. So no, he didn’t go too far. Let him do it again and again he can walk home with a DQ and silver medal 🥈 to show for it. Maybe next time the ref will DQ him faster so he can go home earlier and stop wasting everyone’s time.

[@ayurvology7537]

Gordon is very tolerant. If somebody slapped that hard I would retaliate

[@rbl6359]

He was frustrated... that Ryan didn't even acknowledge those love taps.

[@Jamusictv]

Cyborg just let his emotions get the best of him, beside as good as he is, I dont think he is beating Gordon anytime soon.

[@alexandresensealexandremin1887]

Cyborg DIRTY! Could be a good fight Cyborg against Rousimar Palhares "Heel Hook"Toquinho.

[@vanman724]

I think Rousimar would be the bully in that match..

[@herondope5675]

0:40 he's watching like "yeah nigga do it again so I can DQ you.." and Cyborg slaps the dog shit outta Ryan

[@squirtleisthebestpokemon9745]

Can't say I'm a fan of Gordon Ryan but props to him for keeping his composure with this extensive, blatant cheating going on. I think it's safe to say cyborg lost a ton of respect from the bjj community with this bullshit. The DQ was absolutely justified, in fact it should have happened even sooner.

[@jonmoris9354]

The only person whos gone to far is gordon ryan with that haircut

[@karl5563]

Nice to see Ryan being chilled

[@hermanmelville3871]

The question is, “Did the ref let this go too far?” Dude got hit with over a half dozen pretty solid slaps before they even warned Cyborg.

[@davidr9972]

steroids is a hell of a drug

[@tigerstriker]

King Ryan beat that Brazilian brute with words n didn't even need to use his jitz haha Jedi mind tricks on these weaker grappling men

[@itachiparku]

Dont spit were you eat, bitch. Brazilians made this sport. Respect the origins

[@MORTIFICER]

Jiu jitsu was Japanese art before the Brazilians recreated it

[@hectorresendez6280]

@@itachiparku bjj is a Japanese martial art not Brazilian. Only you Brazilians believe that thats why when u cant win u resort to shit like this here in the video

[@itachiparku]

@@hectorresendez6280 We win every tournament. Check your facts, bigot.

[@saucepoisfosse]

Gabriel Luiz slow down a little lol all Brazilians do with jiu-jitsu is use it as a tool to open schools and attack people better then you guys it was the same when that catch wrestler destroyed the gracies and cyborg is keeping the tradition alive by acting like a bitch. Yes Brazilians are good at jiu-jitsu but the reason is because the Japanese practitioners migrated there stop with that Gracie complex

[@jessejordan8116]

Three questions resolve that question. 1 did he get disqualified? If no, then no. 2 if the answer to question 1 was no then did he win? If yes and yes, then no. 3 If the answer to question 1 was no, then did he lose? If yes and yes, then no.

[@HighAltitudeMMA]

He knew he had no chance so got purposefully disqualified. Lmao

[@JerrysJets]

Dude stayed remarkably cool headed considering how hard he was being smacked. I would have lost it.

[@jordierobs_77]

Still amazed at Ryan's patience.

[@Geralt.5261]

"Doctor stoppage! Tell him doctor stoppage! "

[@kevinhughes3376]

This is the kind of guy to hurt a student to prove a point. So he shouidnt ever be allowed to teach. What a weak man.

[@ayurvology3334]

Fighting angry will never get you the win! Gordon just better than him

[@bos3707]

Cyborg looks even more disgusting in retrospect, giving latest news regarding sexual abuse incidents.

[@steffanofumo]

The gentle art of slapping you in the face lol

[@marcosreinaldo1291]

Perdeu porque esqueceu do combate pra dar tapa no Cara, Gosto muito do estilo do Cyborg mais essa pegada dele aí tá estilo toquinho contra André Galvão, na raiva não vai não tem que ser na técnica e isso eu sei que ele tem de sobra minha humilde opinião Oss

[@joaopazo]

Marcos Reinaldo foi não cara, ele entrou puto decidido a perder mas dar uns tapas na cara do gordon... ele sabia o que estava fazendo..

[@hatusleitao6828]

"Só na boa" 😂😂😂😂😂

[@FraquezaDeHomem]

Eita! Cyborg só fez isso, mas nada. n tentou passar. só mostrou falta de controle emocional.

[@Strype13]

I get the sense these two don't like each other.

[@anthonystone3927]

Bro, he had both of his hands full strength try to snap Gordons neck. That was literal attempted murder.

[@dolamike584]

aww bummer his muscles couldn't just fold the guy into submission.. That dude makes muscles look WEAK!!

[@DeaThreeper5]

Lol cyborg has no hespect for the art. He had a porrada day 😂😂😂😂

[@myriadmmaames]

Yeah absolutely. You can tell he’s salty because his Jiu Jitsu is and never will be close to the skill level of Gordon’s. And he’s been doing Bjj for his whole life 3 times as long as Gordon and Gordon makes him look like an amateur

[@MJJspeaks]

Gordon conducting himself like a champ - unphased by the dirty tactics.

[@treechoppa420]

Dang cyborg. I thought you was better then that!!
