Crazy how at the time Gordon seemed to be on another level but by his own standards he didn't have much wrestling or guard passing here. In fact, most of his offense and passes come from falling back and conceding position. I usually ignore Gordon's self promotion of how he used to "suck" but he's right that he's improved leaps and bounds in only a few short years which is all the more impressive since he was already the top guy. The man has singlehandedly evolved BJJ technique and grown the sport.
To say he “ singlehandedly “ did it by himself & over 150 people agreed with this dumbass comment just lets me know this upcoming generation is fucking cooked. You gotta be sped
I can only imagine how many times since this match CJ must've had the same thought: wishing he instantly cranked 100% and broke GR's arm 2:15:20, sportsmanship be damned. Know GR probably would've still not tapped and tried to continue, but it would've been over
The Russian Bear fight was ridiculous. You could see the shame on Eddie Bravo's face as he handed the win to the big mope that just sat on the floor the whole time. Literally no attack whatsoever and he still won... there should be a provision for that kind of thing not happening in the future.
well tbh the arm wasnt that hyper extended, he was in the safe zone here. Craig made the misstake of showing gordons limb empathy and also expecting gordon to tap.
I admire Craig. I wouldn't take a purse home knowing I possibly ruined another star's career, even if it was Gordon's fault because he wouldn't tap. But that's just me.
18:20 is a good one. Showcases why you want to be on top when you're smaller. And what happens the first 6 months. Stand up wrestling, collar ties, not too boring. A couple judo throws (don't do those at first 😀) Lots of mount attacks and defenses. Fun match.
he had some kind of fungal infection in his stomach that caused him to temporarily retire but I think the main reason he hasn't gone to MMA is because his coach advised against it
Fuck no. Eddie would be the first to tell you so. Look at the weight an age difference! And unlike Royce, Gordon would study Eddies tricks before hand.
I hate how Gordon just didn't try a different way to pass his guard. Throwing his legs and going around isn't working😂. Body lock. Something different..
More times I watch this more I'm convinced that Craig Jones let loose Gordo's arm because he didn't want to break his arm since Gordon was not going to to tap because of his giant ego. Watch it in slow motion
Gordon Ryan just foreplay so ppl have a show to see, he can finish anytime he wants. He tested the water at the beginning and knew he had no leg defence
I sometimes find certain submission matches kind of ridiculous: two guys trying to leg lock each other as there's nothing more they can do. F*ck other sumbmissions, sweeps, guard passes, takedowns, controls and dominant grappling, I need to heel hook this foo. If submission only was created because point system was lame and boring, try watching two guys sitting on their butts with legs entangled over and over and over again.
Vabbè ma forse uomo da battere dove? Hahahahahaha il match l'ho visto ed è stata semplicemente fortuna. Mcgregor comunque è un buffone, il suo team vince un match (e pure per fortuna) su 8 e fa un casino, corre urla caccia il whiskey.. Sembra il Napoli che quando vinse la supercoppa italiana qualche anno fa sembrava avesse vinto la Champions

Classic event that every BJJ fan should see!
1:06:42 Marcel Goncalves graped a 16 year old student of his. I think he fled to Brazil after posting bail.
Craig Jones is a machine. Excellent event
yeah, too bad he showed gordon ryans limbs too much empathy here, kept him from the W.
@@fredrikandersson3885 yep. This is why i think craig is the best grappler in the world
@@Joseph-iw9jw Id say that too, sadly in competition its the W that matters.
Yep could’ve finished that
both Craig and Ryan are twice as big and several times' as deadly now. it wild
We need the rematch
We need the rematch.
This one is great. EBI 12 is another great one everyone should see too.
I remember watching this live, it's insane how much he's improved, his game is nothing like this anymore.

Common now. To me he's the greatest athlete of the sport and is a major factor in popularising his game. But it was definitely not singlehandedly.

Wow cool they made this free on RUclips 👏❤️ would be super if y’all made the very first EBI free on RUclips too. For everyone to see how it all began.
Is fight pass with it just for bjj content?
Ebi 1 and 2 have always been on youtube, try search for it
27:57 That's one hell of a setup!!
Missed that, thanks for pointing it out. That's a beautiful setup
@@georget10i and I get to see it again coz of your comment, so tthaaank you! 👍
@@3rdiWitness no thank you! God bless America son!
No idea how Gordon got out of that arm bar. That was like a real life Nat 20
He didn't exactly get out, Craig let go. Watch the replay, honestly looked like he just couldn't bring himself to break the arm.
What min/second
@@samgoddard1000 My thoughts exactly. They are old teammates/friends.
Steroids
@@samgoddard1000he said this with lex Friedman. They were teammates at the time
If the thumbnail was Craig jones vs Gordon Ryan this would get 10x the views

good times nice to remember when Eddie wastn totaly crazy

Craig Jones is fantastic!
I really liked this. Can anyone recommend other similar grappling must watch events?
quintet 4!
Thanks 🤙

They was fetish fight…😅was touching feets whole time
That one irritated me big time... its clear that the "Russian Bear" really lost that fight hands down.
I can easily see Gordon's progression from this point.
Thanks for this.
Bro we need more EBI!! asap Eddies a legend
No idea how he didn’t tap. Crazy stuff. 😮
well tbh the arm wasnt that hyper extended, he was in the safe zone here. Craig made the misstake of showing gordons limb empathy and also expecting gordon to tap.
@@fredrikandersson3885 Craig **didn't want to break Gordon's arm over some gold paint**
@@fredrikandersson3885 "wasn't that hyper extended"...
Craig Jones is such a great export for OZ …..HES THE BOMB
tried to watch the high pitched tone off and on was driving me crazy
That event seemed pretty damn amazing. How does it compare to other EBIs?
Gordon, now HUGE
its amazing how Brazilian ju jitsu evolved in America considering EDDIE could barely find a fckin gym in his day.
Ryan acts so bored and almost bothered by having to compete it seems.
I DO LOVE HIS PERSONA.
One day we gonna see these two at the ADCC Absolute finale
Or maybe in CJI 😂😂
Eddie Bravo: Cleanest eyebrows in the business.
1:35:05 very nice of Craig to give his opponent his foot back
Thanks for the upload, but why not include the date of the event?
so nice to see big gord again
And this is why Craig went away and bulked up like a savage.
He’s taking that arm with him next time.
He clearly let it go
I love how the one commentator sounds like he’s calling the action from a news helicopter.
Craig at 1:14:47
1:40:40
Peanuts.
His videos made him millions.
I admire Craig. I wouldn't take a purse home knowing I possibly ruined another star's career, even if it was Gordon's fault because he wouldn't tap. But that's just me.
After this gordon vowed to never be natty again, these people was actually able to threaten gordon when he was of normal size lmao
Nice work guys. 💯🀄️
I've rolled with Daniel O'brien a few times. Didn't realize he was at this tournament. Small world.
Where is the last EBI?
FFS 🙏🏿
10:31 this man won 5 bands in 8 1/2 mins.
Gordon and Craig’s match starts at 2:00:50
I’ve seen the Ryan vs Jones match each time and I still don’t know how Ryan didn’t tap to that arm bar
Gordons first opponent looks under estimating Gordon ryan till he realized he is f@cked up😅😅😂
5:40 Why is Danaher working with the cables back there while Gordon Ryan is competing?
It isn't him. 😉
I'm so dumb, you were kidding.
@@odd1363 HAHAHAHAHHAH
@@vmGrymm 😆
at 2:19 you can see something pops from gordan ryans arm
I love the sport but I'm not here to watch ads every 2 minutes that's just ridiculous
legendary
dont know why no one has perfected the tickle your feet position Id tap to that ! would also tap to all the other moves including the take downs
😂😂😂
who put that mic right next to the A/C ??????
at 2:19:17 you can see something pops from gordan ryans arm
afffff que loko
😗
I prefer craigs sportmanship and attitude rather than gordons skills
Be good to have more angles of the match
White belt moves winning championships
2:00 who the fook is that lurp 😭
Novak Djokovic, does jitsu?
The thing is Ryan struggled with him 🤦🏻
Hilarious how Gordan is yawning in the qtr finals King is bored 😅
Holy shit. It's TJ De Santis.
Why doesn’t Gordon do combat Jiu Jitsu
WITH learning BJJ what would be the best matches to watch?
18:20 is a good one.
Showcases why you want to be on top when you're smaller.
And what happens the first 6 months.
Stand up wrestling, collar ties, not too boring.
A couple judo throws (don't do those at first 😀)
Lots of mount attacks and defenses.
Fun match.
What medical condition does Ryan have that prevents him from fighting in MMA?
he had some kind of fungal infection in his stomach that caused him to temporarily retire but I think the main reason he hasn't gone to MMA is because his coach advised against it
@@JJackDaniel Also the drug testing
PEDs. Some MMA fighters have it too, but they are pushing through it.
Steroids
Mainly the drug testing...@@aebersoldbjj
I think Craig Jones actually won, that Ryan tapped but kept going.
You think Eddie Bravo can beat Gordon Ryan?
Fuck no. Eddie would be the first to tell you so. Look at the weight an age difference! And unlike Royce, Gordon would study Eddies tricks before hand.
gordons first sub is the mikey lock haha
Wow big Dan there massively and confusingly overconfident in that first match
Where was Renato Laranja?

What's an Eddie Bravo Invitational?
No Gi Jiu Jitsu Tournament
Flat earth theory while bjj goes on in the background.

Boogeyman does that dramatic limp off the mat ever time he loses
Luke Rockhold is still cool. Even if he loses sometimes.
Gordon looked like he gonna break that ankle off.
Gordon looked mortal. Barely.
Yeah .. go to the ufc
Hilarious. Gordon Ryan didn't know what to do when he had the guy's leg. "I'm the king of sit-down grappling!" You go, boy.
Pay me and i'll probably watch this
Gordon Ryan vs Craig Jones is a historic match homie
worth watching just to see Gordan THE KING Ryan
