Hard to not adore Lachlan. Great jiu jitsu yet a very humble person. This right here is gold if you haven't got his instructionals.

[@JickSaw97]

Imagine Gordon doing a video like this lol

[@freedomfighten123]

@@JickSaw97 looks terrible to ordinary person and he loss lol This isn't grappling needs to be time restrictions on legs either at the start or midway through

[@johnwill8467]

This is a beautiful analysis ... I really loved it. Many of these elements were 'above my paygrade'. I have had the pleasure of Lachie's presence in many of my classes before he got his black belt. he has come such a long way - and his contribitions to the BJJ landscape will no doubt be remembered for decades to come. It is also very heartwarming for me to see him with his wonderful and highly talented wife, Livia ... and their young child. I have shared mat time with my own wifey for three decades now ... and our own son is nearly due for his own black belt - it is a joyous unfolding, when the entire family is into the game. Anyways ... thanks Lachie. Loved it! xxx

Lachlan makes the best instructionals out there. All the information you need without needles repetitions (and smugness). And you get your money worth.

[@monkisc5676]

Lachlan has such a high level analytical and strategic mindset while Gordon although also technically minded has that more traditional obsession with winning. Lachlan eluded to it at the end of his commentary saying it would be nice if Gordon could at least regognize the positioning. Gordon's refusal seems single minded but it also may have helped him win the match. He's just not going to mentaily give up anything....... Normally this can be someones downfall (not recognizing all possible out comes and preparing for them) but for Gordon and others like - applying a strong will, hardwork, and instilling in ones self supreme confidence is the method for success

[@witte2702]

>Gordon's refusal seems single minded but it also may have helped him win the match. He's just not going to mentaily give up anything....... Gordon literally gave up the leg game.

If the only person in the world that can get out of this sequence without much difficulty is Gordon Ryan, then these techniques are extremely effective

[@FlowithdaGo]

Gordon was in deep trouble with the inside heel hook attempt from Lachlan, and generally in bad positions throughout the whole sequence

[@stevena8719]

Gordon almost got heel hooked. He clearly backed out.

[@josesoto3594]

"without much difficulty" Yeah man for sure that's why he spent 2 minutes straight up defending

[@brendon2462]

@@josesoto3594 Yea but Gordon was very aware of the transitions. He stayed calm, cool, and composed. Displayed excellent defence stripping away the attacks. You can't just muscle your way out. He's using very technical defense. He was in it for a bit because of all the transitions. Credit that to his opponents offensive skill. He wasn't necessarily in deep trouble. At any particular moment. He was surely on the defensive no doubt.

[@brendon2462]

@Aaron Turner Yea, but you do realize exposing and hooking the heel. There's still a ways to go before you're actually near the break. I've watched John's tutorial on ashi garami. There's still a few transitions of position to go through. Before you reach the finish.

That pop / tap noise at 18:15 made me jump

[@perrypelican9476]

Excellent explanation and video. Nice to see instead of the ones that nothing is clear. Has Gordon ever lost in recent years? If you prefer attacking the right then in training ONLY go after the left until there is no preference. My right handed 5 foot 7 brother played basketball and his mentor told him to only play lefty until he was equally good on both sides. My brother made the varsity team. He hardly got on court but he deserved to. It's all about no weakness and no preference. So you want them to think that they have to watch out for everything. Perfection in only one thing won't do it for goat status because the super defenders at that thing will mess up your game and tire you out. To digress heavily, one year a 5 foot 7 guy won the NBA slam dunk competition. Look up Spud Web if you want your mind blown and see a human who can fly.

[@prandz420]

@@joebeast15 gordon fanboy? You can talk about specific areas where someone is better that doesnt make it a moot point what are you talking about? if you watch the match its because he disengaged from the leg entanglements. Gordon claims that he is hands down the best at leg entanglements and lachlan had nothing on him.

[@joebeast15]

prandz420 the proof is in the pudding so to speak. He tried his best leglock techniques and failed ultimately then got smashed and subbed. Not sure what’s not clear about that.

[@danieldelanoche2015]

That was a fantastic breakdown! I think it's a bit unfortunate that you don't try to come up and take top position when he slips out of the heel hook. Ryan Hall's new 50/50 instructional emphasizes that a bit and I think Gordon wasn't quite vulnerable enough for you to try to re-engage the leglock battle as opposed to hip heisting to like combat base or possibly standing. Anyway, thanks for the amazing breakdown and for the instructional, which I have purchased and have been watching some of.

[@chrisbrightbrazilianjiujit6032]

Here's what I don't understand / don't like about heel hooks, and as a bjj newbie I'm sure I don't understand, but ... It always looks like guys (and gals as shown in the vid) try and rip the hold as fast as they can. How many times have you heard the opponent scream in response to this move. Seems like if you lock in a heel hook, you should to be able to apply it a bit slower. But like I say, I'm sure I don't understand it very well.

[@NoctuahSteg]

In training most people will be more gentle. In competition people want the win so they're gonna do it as and fast as they can.
