He beat Paddy, we can all agree
He didn't even drop paddy with a broken foot who's easy to drop paddy has super quick recovery but dropping him almost everyone he's been in the cage with has done before losing
Paddy is all hype and Gordon beat him😂😂
@@THEDOGFATHERL11brother stop you’re coping.
Gordon had much more significant shots in that fight
Love the ufc but there’s a couple robberies like that fight decision that just make you kinda lose respect for the judges and even the sport. He beat paddy for sure.
that fight was more of a rig then watching sean vs yan. Watching that live i was 150% sure paddy lost. He didn't win that fight, they gave it to him due to his popularity.@@THEDOGFATHERL11
The man went from black tar to black belt. Gotta respect it
🥲 😂😅
I knocked Jared Gordon out cold 11 years ago in ny I still have it in video
Such an inspirational story. I'm sure we all wish Jared the best
As someone who’s currently addicted to opioids this made me teary lol I’m rooting for this guy!
We’re rooting for you buddy.
What he said ^ ❤️
THAT PARRRRT!!!!
@busterdouglas day by day. If you want to quit it’s a long road ahead. I thought I would never be clean but I am. I had no choice. Quit while you can or it will happen at a point where you have no choice. 🙏🏼
Best of luck with your journey.
Tapering is always the method that helps the most in minimizing WD's. Don't ever give up hope and look forward to a "X years sober" update from you!
Absolutely ❤ his climb out of the clutches of addiction. I'm 36 and have almost 6 months without a drop of alcohol in my body, and I work at the treatment center I attended last February. Change is possible when you're fed up living with a constant crutch. Shout out to all my sober warriors out there from Carlsbad New Mexico🌶
Praying from you, from Michigan. Sober here since 2018 off opiates. Life isn’t so bad on this side… can’t believe some of the shit I did.
Womp womp
God bless Jared. What a man.
Martial arts is also a big part of my own recovery ☯️
Jared is such a warrior.
Sharing his abuse is so brave and takes such strength.
God bless you brother.
Wow what a great story, props to the ufc for sharing this
Fair play to the guy, inspiring story.
Childhood trauma is the root cause of so many problems in society. Behind every addict, prostitute, murderer or gangster is a tale of childhood abuse, trauma or neglect. Untreated emotional, physical and psychological pain more often than not leads to addiction. Often that trauma is passed down through families and the cycle of trauma and addiction continues.
Jared was lucky that wheh he hit rock bottom he was able to get into detox, could pay for it or have someone pay it for him and had MMA to focus on. Many people in his situation have none of that and unfortunately end up dead.
The fact that he beat not only drug addiction, but sexual assault as a child is incredible...💯😢
It takes a lot heart for a man to say all this , Congrats to Jared
This is beautiful and something to admire, thank you for sharing your story Gordon
I love this man. Such an inspiration
What an inspiration dude this literally touched my heart
I can relate to Jared so much. Ive been there many times. Countless times. But through hard work, ive been 5 years sober. Thank god
He came from a good home but all it takes is one bad day/event to send you on downward spiral. Jared is a strong person for sharing his journey and overcoming his demons.
Thankyou.
Love u as same past addiction problem but different recovery journey good luck to you Sir and to your hard work💪🏻👍🏻 lets 🤘🏻brother
Gordon beat Pimblett
He was gonna do it a second time but Pimblett ducked him 😂
If you think Gordon won round 3 for his contoll time then paddy controlled an dictated the pace of the first 2 rounds then split his head open with a elbow visible damage at the end of round 1 paddy definitely won round 2 and whatever way you look at it he either won round 1 with his contoll an dictated pace of the round plus cutting Gordon head open or he got round 3 for landing some shots while Gordon was trying to hold on without throwing ant shots
@@THEDOGFATHERL11 I think of Bisping vs Henderson with Bisping having all the damage to the face and still won.
@@wingsofheartproblems6400 damage will contribute to the round it was done in
Gordon got KO'd by old Bobby Green, he probably wouldn't even beat Tony Ferguson
knew i liked this guy, but never knew his story.. even more respect for him now
I have a different appreciation for this man now. Beautiful story
Super inspiring 😊
Inspiring to be better 🙏
Man, Im rooting for this guy now 😭
Amazing
amazing
Great story that i hope gets through tobat least 1 person but hopefully more🙏🙏👍💯
Best of the fighting
Same but porn. That's why i started going out and run on the beach and i am starting boxing next month. Some might laugh but this is serious shit, and it kills alot of dreams
I know what you mean bro don’t forget to pray daily we both got this👌masturbation truly ain’t it at all
hey man we all got our thing, im a gambling addict. Its ruined my life, but i have been training combat sports for about a year now.
You got this
@@spectre8469how’d you lose it? Sports gambling? Blackjack? Give me a synops
Sexual assaults and molestation is way too common man. Jared is so strong for being where he is today. Just know i empathize with you man
Good shit bro way to show not all us junkies are scumbags some just need an ohh shit moment to get back on track, and most are waiting hopefully it’s before prison or ur dead. Great story though!!
Respect to Jared!!!
P.S. you whooped Paddy’s ass
Aint he f’ing awesome dude
Jared smashed paddy and that belt is gonna be his one day. Jared has already beaten Goliath. Love ya bro
He’s been in the UFC how long and they finally make him a video lol. Great story
He now starting to get notice from the fans so it make sense why they would now
LFKGO Gordon good guy, helluva fighter
Make the octagon black and the adverts gold at ufc 300
Bro swept paddy 3-0. One of the biggest robberies in recent history.
You guys should tell Gordon and Pyfer together in one video! I’m sure nobody knows it!
Лайк Меган Оливи ❤😊👍
No man is a black belt brown belt is where it’s at
This is why I never sent my son to camp. Too many damn horror stories of gross perverted men doing stuff to kids. Glad to see Jared was able to make it out of his dark times.
This dudes a Stud!!!! Love to see it!! And Wish him nothing but the best 💪🏻
What a true American Inspiration ❤
Run it back paddy
From robbing houses to being robbed from the judges
Just now
👇
HE BEAT PADDY.
Great sorry
Oh I thought he had an addiction to fighting
1st
meg got cake
Can I share mine? Oh yeah no one cares...😅
That mafia money… This has all the makings of a white person’s story. Im sure a lot of these mma fans can identify with this story
now bros addicted to losing
2nd oh boo hoo f'in hoo
Weak minded people I swear, I was an addict too, it's not a disease it's a decision and nobody feels bad for you. You choose to pop that pill or shoot that needle, I'm sick of this being glorified like why are we talking about it lol I'm ashamed and embarrassed of my past. All that stupid ass counting the number of days sober is so dumb. It was never apart of my life to me now. Addicts just always need someone to feel bad for them and need attention. I wasn't that kind of addict but that's 99.9 percent of them. I just loved drugs lol.
Agreed. These guys talk as if they are some war heroes or something. Lol
I don't understand your point. Your reason for addiction is "I just loved drugs lol" and his was getting molested as an eight year old child. This is a story of triumph and somebody making a positive change in their life. Not once did Jared Gordon ask for sympathy or ask for glory because of his addiction or overcoming it. He fell in love with martial arts and sport after hitting rock bottom and overcame addiction, which doesn't sound at all like weak mindedness to me. To each their own I guess.
Hold on did he say he did a home invasion and battered them too? And then he just skimmed past it. And did he say that his reason for quitting heroin was because he was tired of the way getting high felt? That’s not really inspirational or triumphant. Most people quit for a better reason than that
This would be a good villain arc but Jarad’s a boring ass fighter. And wtf he did not have to get so descriptive about his molestation
Rom 3:23
For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
Rom 6:23
For the wages of sin is death;
Psalms 9:17
The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.
Acts 8:37
And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.
Rom 10:9
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
Corinthians 15:3-4
For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
Ephesians 2:8-9
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.
