Meregali is probably gonna win ADCC Absolute and then Gordon will pass on the torch to him and just move on to mma or something. They're more valuable to each other as trainning partners
@@maxxismycat999 I hope he can keep making enough money grappling and coaching so he doesn't need to get into mma. I think the people we see trying mma from grappling are doing it because they need the money while their body is still up to it. I also hope Pena going into mma is out of love for the sport and not just for cash.
Probably due to less concern about getting caught in training and also more emphasis on pushing the pace to train in fatigue, as opposed to trying to conserve.
Really impressed with Meregali. Stays quiet and every time he trains/competes, he just grows leaps and bounds. Gordon looks equally awesome. Very cool footage!
I'm too impressioned with this sparring with meregali, Meregali evolve so fast in nogi grappling, He did a fucking hard Sparring with Gordon, This sparring was very technical, A true work of art
The dudes game was de la riva, pulling guard, and loop chokes. Yea it’s impressive. If it was easy to switch Gordon would have tried GI once in the past 10 years.
@@Nicatlotus i can confirm i train at a pure nogi school and all the gi only guys that come to our open mats feel 3 belt levels lower when they dont have the gi, they are physicaly strong and have ok defense but there is never any threat of pass sweep or sub, people that occasionaly train nogi or 1 day a week are lacking for the most part.
We love jiu Jitsu so we want to see that portion of that but to the average spectator .. they want to watch the scrambles and takedowns and dynamic passing/guard retention sequences..
Incredible content from Flo. New Wave has the best of the best athletes right now. Regarding the car situation with Gordon, I’m slightly worried for his mental health. The dude can’t keep a car for more than a month.
How do you equate not keeping a car to diminished mental health? I'm not sure, but it was implied that he does this to maintain a uncomfortable environment to promote growth. It may appear insignificant, but I would bet at his level, every advantage, no matter how miniscule, could end up being a mental edge and even possibly, the deciding factor in a match. Or am I jumping out the window at joke and looking like a goofball? 🫣
It reminds me of when geoerges Paint pierre said: i only train like 20-30 Minutes a day but on Maximum effort because i a fight u only go hard for like 20mins at max.
Meregali/Gordon are going to have a future war against each other on social media at some point in the future, much like Nicky Rod/Gordon. I feel it's inevitable when you have two alphas in the same weight class, on the same team.

@@GiBJJIsForChildren he wont quit, but he did say he will focus on mma once his teammates can win other weight categories/absolute. It was a podcats he was speaking on ( joe rogan ? ).
So Gordon gets 30 min Meregali, then 10 mins with Luke? ANd he does look like he actually tries alot, which is why it doesnt look like Gordon tries too hard in actual Matches. In training, you wanna get as tired as possible, and then conserve the energy is an actual match. Make in the gym training actual fucking hell so its not hell out there.
Epic battle. Gordon is the king, never saw him blast like this for 40 minutes. God i thought i was getting fit managing 3 x5 minute rounds, with 1 minute breaks.
What. A. Treat. To be able to watch ryan, meregali and griffiths just go for it HARD for free on youtube Thanks Flo, might even consider a membership someday just because your free content is so good
Wow... I have never seen training footage of top BJJ athletes going so hard, especially with the wrestling. Of course it must increase the injury risk quite a but but the outcome is creating mosters
Man, these are serious sparring. They are like watching the fight between a tiger and a dragon (Oriental expression describing the fight between two strong heroes).
i think his jiujitsu would improve a lot more if he just stuck to the fundamentals of homelessness and took the bus to class. Better yet, walking would def improve his jj considerably

awesome
Gordon seems like he goes half as hard in real matches. Meregali is an animal!
That's what I thought too. That looked way more intense than any of the recent matches of Gordon's I've watched.

Literally the first time I have seen Gordon go this hard. I did not expect him to wrestle and scramble this well, amazing to see.
this is because nicky rod catch him on a rnc and broke his leg.

Meregali and Gordon are soo good it's insane

You talk as if a person who trains mostly Gi is completely clueless without it. It is still BJJ.
The dudes game was de la riva, pulling guard, and loop chokes. Yea it’s impressive. If it was easy to switch Gordon would have tried GI once in the past 10 years.
He's a fucking beast. He's quickly going to become the Prince. Once Gordon decided to retire, Meregali will take the crown and become King

@@Nicatlotus on that level it is a different game
this is better content than pretty much everything on flo and you post it on youtube 😂
I agree you’re 100% right this is phenomenal I could watch this forever
Meregali's positional awareness and timing is very impressive. I guess that transfers perfectly from gi.
Finally some training footage where high level guys actually hit moves on each other. 🔥
This is amazing footage, at the age of mid 50's, this is inspiring me to keep training! Ryan works hard and he looks amazing!
Meregali rounds were amazing
This was amazing. Loved seeing Meregali dishing it out too, earned a new fan.
The humility on display with that jeep is just of saintly proportions.
The conditioning to go at that pace for 30 minutes 😳 I'm gasses after 2 minutes at the rate these guys are going 🤣
Peds help
@@Sui_Generis0 definitely
It’s terrifying to see Gordon in training mode. His normal game is so slow and methodical, you forget how quick and aggressive he can be.
Felipe is so screwed. You know Gordon’s sparring with Nicholas is gonna be harder than Felipe match
lol
Notice how they cut the cameras everytime Gordon got chest to chest in half guard.
Ya I was getting mad like let me see the pass lol
Gotta hide trade secrets
We love jiu Jitsu so we want to see that portion of that but to the average spectator .. they want to watch the scrambles and takedowns and dynamic passing/guard retention sequences..
Smother choke

Now that is one hell of a roll.
Gordon's car struggles are hilarious
We need more Meregali vs Ryan content! The best sparring on the internet!
“I wish I could fight Felipe every weekend” 🤣
Such classic GR, he just couldn't avoid a dig at Felipe, love it.
seeing gordon train like this is interesting, vs his pacing in actual fights. Training harder than the real thing, limit testing and pushing yourself
It reminds me of when geoerges Paint pierre said: i only train like 20-30 Minutes a day but on Maximum effort because i a fight u only go hard for like 20mins at max.
Gordon is Gordon when it comes to nogi. But damn has Meregali really improved his nogi.
I love how the new wave team systematically know how to maneuver through every position , good or bad .
I think from 4:00 --- 4:39 he's attempting a Mikey Lock.
The bodies slapping during the sparring rounds takes me back to my prom night...ahhhh the memories!!!
Amazing stuff. Entire New Wave team so good.
I can't imagine the suffering that comes with that jeep. Poor Gordon
Anyone that says Gordon Ryan isn’t athletic is incorrect - I think this was the most intense training I’ve seen from him - Merigali is brilliant 🔥
Nobody says that except Craig jones recently.
@@oldironsides4107 probably just building the hype for future matches 🤔
Bruh Gordon literally said he wasn’t athletic
@@ola_eboda lol, true
No room for 7 cars. The endless suffering of Gordon continues.
That double leg by Griffith was beautiful. They cut out that part really quick
I hope that no drama ever comes between these two because they are taking the art to another level by testing each other.
Thank you for this! Flo fully redeemed themselves with this one
This is mind blowing. What absolute animals
Meregali/Gordon are going to have a future war against each other on social media at some point in the future, much like Nicky Rod/Gordon. I feel it's inevitable when you have two alphas in the same weight class, on the same team.

He's probably gonna win ADCC Absolute and then Gordon will pass on the torch to him and just move on to mma or something. They're more valuable to each other as trainning partners
@@marwanshamsia is this a real comment? there's a 0% chance Gordon quits bjj just because Meregali wins absolute

@@kragi02 i seriously doubt we ever see gordon ryan in mma
That was just class,the skill level between these two.jeeeesus
Perhaps they agreed not to post the submissions so as not to show anyone up and allow them to be comfortable filming training 🤷♂️
Seems like that was the case
having been in the room, they can definitely go that hard for this period with zero submissions being hit. they're both extremely technical
That is an insane pace
Would be good to see Gordon train with Michael Pixley.
Looking forward to seeing Taza compete guys a monster
So Gordon gets 30 min Meregali, then 10 mins with Luke? ANd he does look like he actually tries alot, which is why it doesnt look like Gordon tries too hard in actual Matches. In training, you wanna get as tired as possible, and then conserve the energy is an actual match. Make in the gym training actual fucking hell so its not hell out there.
I never thought of it this way. Thank you so much!
@@Flash786 we have a saying at our gym "the more you sweat in the gym the less you bleed inbthe fight.

Epic battle. Gordon is the king, never saw him blast like this for 40 minutes. God i thought i was getting fit managing 3 x5 minute rounds, with 1 minute breaks.
These guys are beasts! Wow.
Superhuman endurance, I never get bored with watching how much strategy is involved, every move has an answer, Human chess in 2023.
I couldn’t fathom being in a class a rolling next the king!
I’d love to see these 2 go at it in a year or two when Meregali has more experience at no-gi
That's why he is the king trains with best goes through the fire luv it
It looks like Gordon’s working on a few things. Great training partners and competition, great video.
Gordon the 🐐 🔥🔥🔥
Damn What a roll, this is the content we all like 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
nice!!!
great grappling
Gordon’s stand up game looking 🔥
At minute 1.34 Oliver Taza!
Meregali com pouco tempo de no gi conseguiu segurar o Gordon,logo estará no mesmo nível

Amazing roll.👍🏼🇺🇸👍🏼🇺🇸👍🏼🇺🇸👍🏼🇺🇸👍🏼
WHats the difference in the Roka gym and New Wave? Are they different locations where GR trains at?
Another how to be humble vlog 😊
Looking at the future... see this as the next possible ADCC match
Meregalli is so legit.
Amazing content! Kind of wished you would have uploaded the whole fights though
Why is everyone asking about his calf when he clearly talks about it in the video?
Sparring with meregali was harder than any of his matches on ADCC
Finally some rolling footage of top guys going hard
Wouldn’t want to be the bottom guy when the top guy is going hard
I'm just here to watch guys hard
“I don’t have room for 7 cars” hahahah what a quote

Please feature Ben more! He's in the background but should be the highlight!
7 cars... I wish I had that amount of "suffering". lol
This is the hardest we’ve seen Gordon work.
Wow what a scramble 🎉
Is it me or is everyone stealing my moves? 😂😂😂😂😂
"I don't see a Corolla! Where's the Corolla?!"
"Ok. Hear me out..."
"Goes to war".. Literally shows two guys hugging each other for 10 minutes.
Hugging?….
Gordon you’ve suffered enough having a less than 200HP car. Wrangler Base is a dope upgrade
Quite a small Tatami for so many people
I like the handles to lower the window. It looks like it will help your Jiujitsu. They don't have that option on the Toyota?
i think his jiujitsu would improve a lot more if he just stuck to the fundamentals of homelessness and took the bus to class. Better yet, walking would def improve his jj considerably
Those boys giving Gordon a harder time than Galvao or Rod or Pena ever has hahahah
I'm new to the Gordon Ryan phenomenon and agree with him, suffering is good, makes a man strong.
He suffered enough with that poor man's 170hp Corrolla
Definitely drilling tomorrow. Thank you Junny👊
The Rolla!!!
Daaaamn! Gordon and meringali is already far more entertaining and technical than the match to come with Felipe.
Putting in work
Nice double leg takedown by Luke!!!
what does danaher say when he shakes the hands of the students?
Sick footage!
What does John Danaher say to his students when he shakes their hands after training?
I wonder why Gordon's calf is so heavily taped. I hope it's not staph or anything.
I thought he was going to show it, when he was unwrapping it.
@Boyscout910 What are you talking about? That was his ankle.
He says at 10:06 hemotoma
