Great video man! I have to agree, his ability to remember tiny details and react without even thinking, WITHOUT forgetting the small details is what makes him so good. And go have an amazing coach like John really compliments that. And I hate when people make the steroid excuse because literally everybody in 99+ KG is using PED’s. In ADCC, they don’t care. Everyone is doing what they can to get an advantage. As a matter of fact, Gordon is considered one of the smaller guys in 99+.
we don't really know if he's the best grappler alive since we don't know what dope he's on. It is possible that his dope is the best dope available and nobody else is on anything comparable.
That’s an issue with combat sports as a whole. Their should be separate divisions honestly. But some people prefer these competitors lying that they are natural so they can idk look up to them? It’s fairly dumb. We need a “natural” league and a “The Action is the JUICE” league. Which we are seeing by default anyways.
I also don't like the argument of "well you'll never fully get rid of it, people will still find a way to cheat" as a reason to complete ignore the issue.
Patrick Gaudio, Galvao, Pena was on just as much if not more. Gordon was 185 shredded naturally strong at 18 . He had good response genetics to gear. And the techniques/style he uses varies. He doesnt just rely on strength based moves. Ie leg locks, foot sweeps, loose passing etc.
He's a Jujitsu nerd . I'm a nerd for comic book and sci-fi stuff.. he is a fanatic, it's probably all he thinks about . Nerd with muscles . Him and Danaher are a perfect match . Why haven't him and Craig had a match in the last couple years ? Does anyone know ?
It would just become too much basically by the time the match happens. Gordon knows Craig will troll him to suicide. Also, Craig knows he’s getting smothered in that match lol
Honestly, it's hard to deny his ability, to the point where his matches are kinda boring. He is the best submission grappler today, and thete aren't many exciting matches left that we haven't already seen. Gordon in the gi for a year would have been interesting, but I think now is the time for him to move to MMA. Both ONE and UFC would throw money at him, and his first match would probably do mid-card on a PPV.
Lets not forget that NoGi is probably 10% of Jiu-jitsu. Gordon just compete on his territory, on his rules, the way that he wants. That is not being a great fight. This is just lazy

Another great vid 👍
Control that leads to submission. That is why:)
Well said!
You should not have to trash your body to get a level playing field.
Goat! Steroids' don't hurt.

I don't think one dope being better than another is enough to make some the best alive, but i'm admittedly not a dope expert.

You’re naive to athletics.
