This is absolutely the worst footage of one of the most amazing moments. Why the producer switched the cameras right during the very moment the escape is unfucking believable.

[@ramofgod7328]

I came to comments to ask... did he escape or what? I'm casual so not versed in rules. Didn't know if it was a time thing or wtf

[@levmccor54]

@@Izzy267NZ nah it was like overtime rules so you can either be put in armbar position or backmount for a certain amount of time until someone finishes. gordon survived the armbar so he got to take craigs back and finished the job.

He explained later on instagram on interview that he tore his bicep. More of a strong will. That’s why he looked disappointed

[@seanbanez]

So the thing is…. Craig didn’t want to completely break his arm and Gordon was willing to lose his arm in order to not tap. If you ask me, this is the day that Craig showed mercy to Gordon.

[@rif5556]

I remember reading somewhere that Gordon had completely destroyed his arm by escaping this armbar. Not sure how true it is, but if it is true that's a crazy amount of dedication to survive that.

[@blue-pi2kt]

He had his bicep beyond full extension for like 3 or 4 seconds. It might not create a full tear but something in the bicep is giving out in a major way.

[@KoaCycles]

When Gordon escaped , I’ve seen that face before! That’s the same face Dustin made after him and Max were both pointing towards the center of the cage. Pure warriors

[@ronthemogul]

Yea Craig spared that arm that’s why

[@jodawgsup]

could've easily broke it

[@dolphlundgren2820]

No he didn’t, he was cranking on it like crazy. Craig even looked defeated after Gordon got out of it. 🤣 he was applying pressure the whole time!

[@tra_stay_winning]

Ebi overtime rules is that you either start in spiderweb (modified sidecontrol with an arm for armbar attempt) or start on your back. You have one minute to submit your opponent. If your opponent escapes from your control, you have to beat his escape time. If you submit your opponent, your opinion will have a chance to try to submit you, but if he doesn't do it within the time you set, you win. Tldr: you take turns in spiderweb/ back control until someone gets a fast submission or escape.

[@GhoodVibez]

Craig Jones is the man. No offense to Gordon but he will never create something like CJI!

[@jgrubbs2891]

Crazy to think at the gym he taps... but with a championship on the line it's "break my arm" great escape that's why he's the best!!!

[@SuicideJones33]

The dedication/obsession some people have towards winning - Jordan, Kobe etc - is almost psychopathic, sociopathic. But if they lost, all they lost is a game. Gordon will break/tear arms, legs, anything to get the win. That's a whole extra level of determination. I can't stand Gordon, I really don't like him. But his will to win might be higher than even the Kobe, Jordan and Ronaldo's of the world.

[@kingperk6429]

THIS IS WHY FRANK MIR WOULD ACTUALLY BREAK PEOPLES ARM BECAUSE THEY DONT TAP RYAN KNOWS IT WAS OVER U COULD SEE IT IN HIS FACE GUY JUST DIDNT WANT TO BREAK RYANS ARM SMH

[@whiskythrottle8421]

You don’t think he was trying with everything he had? No Frank would train to break your shit just like he would in a fight. He just let his training partners know I’m training like I would a fight so it’s up to you to tap. You have to let your ego go in training and know when to tap.

I don't know shit about jujitsu. Maybe more than people who just don't pay attention to ANY martial arts, but not enough to understand why this dudes so good. People talk about how he's so great at every aspect of the sport. How, with the sport growing so much in popularity aren't there anyone who have a real case in being on his level? There are plenty of great guys out there but I've never heard any one name more than Gordon Ryan

[@RevvItBham]

The amount of subconscious thought in every move he makes is unreal. I learned a single move in BJJ last night that was 6 sequential steps. I practiced the move about 15 times during class but I’m still nowhere near the speed I would need to be to perform it effectively on a white belt (the lowest belt). Gordan could perform the move effectively on any belt, from multiple positions, and multiple variations without thinking about it. He could do the same with probably a hundred or more different moves, all in different scenarios. He just knows craft inside and out and it’s second nature.

[@FormidableOne]

@@RevvItBham genius at bjj

[@danielhicks4826]

Thats how it is when you have a record of like frickin 200-9 with your last loss being over 50+ matches and like 5-6 years ago ago, at that point you prove you are objectively the best, are there guys at or close Ish to his level though of course I don't know the sport much at all but just takes like 20 minutes of lookin into most of them are brazillian leandro lo tragically murdered at age 32 by some scumbag in a bar he actually had a win over Ryan in there only match and had close to his level of accomplishments, sadly never got to rematch, Pena he has a win over Ryan maybe even 2 back while ago but since Ryan has beat him like 3 straight times, few others but yeah Ryan is who is listed as #1 because that's what the stats skills and records show based on objective merit is all.

[@danielhicks4826]

He also does despite how annoying it is to fans and despite how its seen as making "excuses" does have legit stomach issues which has meant instead of like 10 matches a year recently he's been more at like 4-5 a year with at his worst health crisis in 2021 he only had 2, but even still he remains undefeated for like 6 years and over 50+ fights since his last loss, sometimes you can be way above everyone else, sometimes it's just a bit but that can still be enough, for now he's above everyone else still objectively. But no doubt others are catching up, then again at the same time he's likely still leveling up as well.
