Match Breakdown: Gordon Ryan Details His Win Over Josh Saunders At WNO 24

[@artemlobov3685]

[@Josh-eb5vm]

nicky's brother seems pretty good. suprised he's not in cji.

[@mmhm007]

After reading some of the comments, I think everyone knows that most people at the top of their craft are eccentric people. Much of the time, it takes an out-of-the-ordinary personality to become exceptional at something that is so physically and mentally demanding. I say that because if people can get past personality, they can appreciate what we watch when Gordon competes. I think Josh has won 2022 and 2023 ADCC Asian trials now and only had one match that didn't end in submission. Not sure yet where he stands (we have to see him against the other trail winners on Aug 16th) but he's definitely not a push-over. Even if Gordon eventually fails to deal with another competitor's athleticism (or less-likely their mind), it's hard to deny that he has one of the sharpest intellects for Jiu Jitsu. It's a pleasure to watch and learn.

[@hwago123]

He’s learned from Danaher, who IS the sharpest mind in BJJ. He grew up with him basically, so a lot of the credit goes to John

[@jerryh2954]

Gorgon is the BJJ goat 100%. And is intellectually unmatched. He is also smart enough to know that he needs help to be the best in this sport, no man is an island especially when it comes to sports, and has picked Dan to be that person which means his ego is intact.

[@dzanokuch8391]

Why are you dressed up as Craig Jones ? 😂

[@janbayer9578]

Gordons facecolor looks like mine 5 hours into a northsea fisherboat trip

[@nia7558]

The pallid deathbitten tones of a tummy bug zombie

[@JiuJitsuRules]

GR has earned the respect. He talks a ton of shit but is so technical and so controlled that he allows his opponents plenty of time to tap and avoid injury. Say what you will about the guy but he could have literally ruined soooo many peoples career but is a true sportsman. For this reason I am finally starting to be a fan.

[@TheDomLouis]

People who rip aren't technically as good as Gordon. They are opportunistic. Which is fine if the win is all that matters to you, rather than getting better technically!

[@armon8399]

Not only a technical genius but tactical as well. Crazy to watch

[@gitrix2000]

He is a genius at his craft ... say whatever you want. He is way above the rest ...

[@hwago123]

Because of Danaher

[@nuggert]

@@hwago123 wrong. There are many others who have trained under him and haven’t achieved the same ! He is the best student and the best athlete. Period

[@EnduroRideWales]

Great breakdown. I love that camping sequence. Just goes from bad to worse for the person on bottom while you're using very little energy on top. 🐐

[@jerryh2954]

I'm not a fan of when Gordon get's into spats with people online, I think it's below him, But he is the A#1 King on the mat and is also the best ring commentator in the sport bar none. His Jiu Jitsu understanding coupled with his communication style is what the sport needs if they want to take BJJ to the viewing masses.

[@iams2109]

My respect for both fighters. I admire you guys both. I started this sport 4 months ago and now I can't stop thinking in Jiu jitsu

[@TheMacLyf]

Sheeesh bro, just levels and levels to this game

Hahahahahahafuck

[@Alex-xi3bw]

In his breakdown video, Josh thought he was only a little bit behind Gordon's skill level because he managed to keep recovering guard...only to now to realize it was part of the plan for him to recover guard...

[@jpnnstrps]

this

[@ActionRan]

Gordon was just like: yeah and here i passed his guard, then he recovers guard, but its on purpose. it was all in the master plan.

[@yoyoho2627]

Gordo looks like he wants to start dry heaving during this breakdown. Dude can't catch a break. Stomach is massively colonized by fungus it seems.

[@interestedparty7523]

For real. Antibiotics ravaged his digestive track, gut flora. You'd think a fecal transplant would help.

[@garrett1241]

Awesome Breakdown. Excited for your matches next weekend. Good Luck!

[@dmtjnani9951]

Made him look like he has only four years of jiujitsu knowledge . A king, indeed. Aum & Oss

Josh being able to defend the attack on his legs to the point of making Gordon switch his objective is truly impressive.

Great breakdown, appreciate it

[@LetsFlyThere]

This kind of control over a world class athlete is unbelievable.

[@micchaelsanders6286]

FACTS

[@cptazstudios7952]

I love how your secrets out in the open really makes no difference to your opponents, because the defense is just let you pass and have whatever you want, which is worse!!

[@goobtron]

Brilliant. Gordon is a genius tactician

[@hermanmelville3871]

That “inside camping” concept is something that Henry Akins has taught for years. Nice to see someone using it at a high level.

[@eristicfreethinker2098]

Would love to see a similar analysis by his opponent. What was he thinking? Did he recognize what Ryan was doing? What was he trying to do? What was his strategy?

[@jongeon77kim]

I like the camping hat and camp fire.

[@plnmbjj]

When they are in this half/ z guard carrying body weight isn’t it batter to pull closed guard at least? Looks there’s a lot of space to bring the bottom leg in

[@ahilesovichahil]

Gordon controls an opponent's lower leg with his left arm. It looks like Josh can but it's tough to do when u carry so much weight.

[@bl0wurmind]

sick pressure application !

[@worldallycat]

You can tell his health is suffering from trying to support his size with gear and all his other health concerns. Dude is burning the candle at both ends. Wishing him the best.

[@deltoids1151]

It’s not the size that’s killing him its the long term complications from having to take rounds and rounds of antibiotics. Been dealing with the same thing for close to a decade and it sucks so bad

[@castejb]

love him or hate him, it is undeniable the genius this man brings to the mat.

[@chrishanlon4393]

generational talent!!!!

[@jarredbarber]

My takeaway from this video is that whenever somebody escapes into guard you tell them that you wanted them to do that.

A harder situation than beating Saunders is swallowing pride and getting the million dollar CJI money.
