2017. already captured his third ebi00:01:42
title back in March now looking to00:01:45
defend his absolute Crown here against00:01:47
Dan berobic00:01:49
fighting here00:01:53
the confidence must be incredibly high00:01:55
for the king Gordon Ryan and you're00:01:57
coming off that 80cc gold and just00:02:00
becoming as successful is Gary tone in00:02:04
the legend of ebi he just furthers the00:02:06
the status and reputation that Dan and00:02:08
her death squad yeah they've been doing00:02:09
a great job00:02:15
appearance but now he's the man yeah at00:02:18
20 years old the Iron Dragon has truly00:02:20
morphed into the king00:02:28
look for a trip here possibly nice00:02:32
balance again so far it's got the leg00:02:34
nice and high so yeah there's the trick00:02:36
yeah look at Gordon the patience there00:02:38
he knew he had that leg control and00:02:40
really despite his time didn't get too00:02:42
aggressive and now suddenly on top here00:02:44
Dan berovic00:02:47
isolated a leg00:02:50
I've got some leg lacing going on here00:02:53
when we talk about the success of Gordon00:02:54
Ryan just 22 years old00:02:57
taking on Daniel O'Brien who's been00:02:59
training for 14 years it's it's funny a00:03:01
guy who's nearly you know training as00:03:04
long as as Gordon Ryan's been alive is00:03:06
is the underdog in a lot of ways and I00:03:07
need to defend that leg00:03:13
credit to parovic didn't look like he00:03:15
was panicking at all in that situation00:03:17
yeah it wasn't wasn't quite in danger00:03:19
yet there wasn't any uh immobilization00:03:21
of his right knee yet it was just the00:03:23
leg was a bit extended so it looks scary00:03:25
but uh he's still okay here as long as00:03:28
he can keep his knee line free00:03:30
it's really close to being isolated he's00:03:32
come pull him in just a little couple00:03:34
inches more yeah00:03:38
aerobic primarily defensive here not00:03:40
trying to launch a leg attack of his own00:03:42
by any means00:03:45
well you know when you throw a a counter00:03:47
attack sometime that distracts you your00:03:49
attention and you miss your defensive00:03:52
opportunities and it's smart to play00:03:54
defensively against somebody as uh00:03:56
clearly it's Adept as Gordon Ryan is00:03:59
with lives what do you think Gordon00:04:01
Ryan's feeling right now Scott because00:04:02
again he is the man he is the king00:04:04
literally that is his uh name and the00:04:06
name that he's lived up to thus far but00:04:08
still just 22 years old that's a lot of00:04:10
pressure for a young kid uh I I don't00:04:12
think so I think he's computed so much00:04:14
that he a lot of the competition00:04:16
pressure has dissipated for him over the00:04:19
years he's very comfortable competing00:04:20
and on a big stage because of the amount00:04:23
of reps he's put in with just dealing00:04:25
with competition he wants some nerves00:04:27
that helps keeps you sharp but uh he's a00:04:30
lot more relaxed and that allows you to00:04:31
react more fluidly than you would00:04:33
otherwise interesting little action00:04:35
there he had for which uh looking for00:04:37
the uh Baron bolo as a counter to some00:04:39
of Gordon's leg attacks which is00:04:42
actually what Felipe Pena used at the00:04:44
last ADCC the absolute bracket there so00:04:46
people are starting to learn when you00:04:48
compete the footage is out there and00:04:50
people can start to kind of game plan00:04:51
against them and I think that was00:04:53
something that happened before you guys00:04:55
mentioned the stage we are actually00:04:56
absent uh our big stage that we're00:04:58
usually on in the Orpheum inside the00:05:00
honored Academy tonight The Spectators00:05:02
were literally on top of our competitors00:05:03
tonight a very intimate feel for both00:05:05
competitor and spectator00:05:08
it's interesting the way Gordon's00:05:09
keeping his00:05:11
Shin tucked inside Dan's left knee while00:05:14
he's standing there so there's no slack00:05:17
it makes it harder for Dan to maneuver00:05:19
around it for like pummeling00:05:22
now we see Ryan going for a tow hole00:05:26
rovic trying to spin through00:05:31
looks like he's able to free it now00:05:32
switching to a heel hook is Ryan oh he's00:05:35
back in he keeps getting it he's got an00:05:38
ankle lock now all right let it go Dan's00:05:42
doing a great job of uh clearing the00:05:45
knee line just enough00:05:47
Ryan 12-0 in his ebi run all of his00:05:50
matches have ended via submission now00:05:53
he's had two matches go to overtime but00:05:55
those overtimes were ended by00:05:56
submissions as well so uh pretty much00:05:59
perfect on the mat is Gordon Ryan and uh00:06:02
you know I think borovic kind of biting00:06:04
his time trying to take this match at00:06:05
deeper waters it's a smart move by him00:06:14
coming up on the halfway point here of00:06:17
Regulation00:06:20
all right got his hand in there to try00:06:22
to prevent him but Gordon's got the hill00:06:24
he's deep on that heel now Dan's not in00:06:27
a great position to defend he's a lot00:06:29
better on top when he could sprawl and00:06:31
had some head and arm pressure to try to00:06:32
force that leg out but right now he's in00:06:34
a pretty bad spot it's hard for him to00:06:37
move anywhere else if he does still have00:06:38
control of that hand00:06:40
of that foot he's got a dedicate his00:06:43
hand to that one spot no now he's using00:06:46
his foot to try to prevent00:06:49
pressure from getting too great00:06:51
he's able to fight through it good job00:06:53
really good survival00:06:55
[Applause]00:06:58
that he never really panicked even00:07:00
though it looked like he was in a00:07:01
precarious situation no00:07:03
and he was trying to go for that smash00:07:05
pass for a second Gordon pushed him off00:07:06
and they just broke off which is00:07:08
probably the smartest thing to do right00:07:09
there is just disengage and get him to a00:07:11
new get into a New Groove00:07:13
you think about it berovic maybe gets00:07:16
the Unlucky draw having to take on00:07:17
Gordon Ryan but I think all 15 guys in00:07:20
this tournament expected having to go in00:07:22
there with Gordon at some point if they00:07:23
want to win this thing and uh I wonder00:07:26
what the tactics were in the gym getting00:07:28
ready for these guys preparing00:07:30
specifically for Gordon Ryan00:07:33
there's an advancement full guard00:07:37
we that hip hip been sweet00:07:41
now he's trying to work towards the de00:07:43
la Eva00:07:48
Gordon sits down and shut that off00:07:53
we talk at the top of the show a lot00:07:55
about tactics and veteranship and and00:07:57
being familiar with this format one00:07:58
change though even for Gordon Ryan will00:08:00
be the fact that if this goes to00:08:01
overtime here in the first round uh the00:08:03
first round of this tournament we only00:08:05
have one overtime period so you really00:08:07
got to make it count and if you were00:08:09
ever going to you know use tactics to00:08:11
get past the king Gordon Ryan the00:08:14
opportunity for barova could be in00:08:15
overtime00:08:18
no absolutely it's uh that's kind of00:08:21
like putting it all on all in that one00:08:24
position which that may be the best bet00:08:28
but right now borovic needs to worry00:08:30
about Ryan who tried to pass the guard00:08:33
ended up in half and now nice00:08:35
great recovery by dad fighting off the00:08:38
half guard doing a good reset but you00:08:40
know Gordon's been basically keeping00:08:41
some weight on Dan the entire match and00:08:44
like over time 10 minutes may not be00:08:46
enough though but definitely over time00:08:49
you are there is a fatigue Factor just00:08:52
carrying a heavier man's weight yeah00:08:55
and it may um go into Gordon's favor if00:08:58
he's dominating the whole time they00:08:59
might skip the coin toss and just give00:09:01
him the superior position so there's00:09:03
always an advantage to being the guy on00:09:05
top and the guy pushing the action here00:09:06
at ebi00:09:09
meant something that those tactics I00:09:11
think have been on display from the day00:09:13
in her death squad in the past as well00:09:14
if you go back to garyton's Performance00:09:16
when he took the light heavyweight title00:09:18
home when he defeated Vinnie magalish00:09:20
the way that he took care of Vinnie in00:09:22
overtime I think was sort of a sign to00:09:25
how comfortable Gary was with that00:09:27
format and uh you know Gordon Ryan these00:09:31
guys train everything technique but also00:09:32
strategy00:09:34
outside heel hook again but dance and00:09:37
fighting making sure you can't get a00:09:39
clear rotation with the gripped hands00:09:40
breaks the grip apart00:09:43
and pretty deep00:09:47
really cranking it now is Ryan00:09:51
aerobics still staying calm and cool 9000:09:53
seconds left there it is nicely done by00:09:56
the chain00:10:00
of five thousand dollars for himself00:10:02
Gordon Ryan doing what he does best and00:10:05
that's finishing fights here inside the00:10:08
Eddie Bravo Invitational00:10:11
all right we will make it official00:10:14
ladies and gentlemen we have a winner at00:10:16
8 min00:10:17
ions into regulation by heel look the00:10:21
king Gordon Ryan00:10:27
Gordon Ryan getting it done in the same00:10:30
fashion he's finished all of his fights00:10:31
in here with a submission whether it be00:10:33
in regulation or overtime he had to work00:10:36
for it took eight and a half minutes to00:10:37
get it done but walk us through the end00:10:39
and that double aashi there's been00:10:41
working on it a couple times had some00:10:42
good mileage in it earlier in the match00:10:44
but this time found the right angle00:10:46
fully committed to the grip on that foot00:10:47
and Dan just had to tap before he felt00:10:50
his knee might rip apart there there's a00:10:52
lot of pressure you can see the tendon00:10:53
stretched out at the outside knee there00:10:56
of that part of00:10:59
when when you play with these Dan and00:11:01
her guys you really are playing with00:11:03
fire and even if you don't get burned00:11:05
right away it seems like the Fire gets00:11:07
hotter the further the competition goes00:11:09
and Gordon Ryan getting it done moving00:11:11
on to the quarterfinals the king in00:11:14
position to further his legacy here at00:11:16
the Eddie Bravo invitation00:11:18

Daniel O'Brien Patrick donabettian00:12:24
mentioned Donna Betty in the 10th Planet00:12:26
qualifier winner he's had to win matches00:12:29
just to get in this position you know he00:12:31
wants to make good on this opportunity00:12:32
he had four hard matches over Planet HQ00:12:35
to win the qualifier and earn his spot00:12:38
so he's game ready he's very uh well00:12:41
versed in the rule sets00:12:43
and looking to uh get a run at Gordon00:12:47
Ryan next if he can make it past Daniel00:12:49
it is an absolute tournament uh open00:12:52
weights here both these guys actually00:12:53
came in though on point uh 195.8 for00:12:57
both of them so no weight difference00:12:59
here00:13:01
you know Patrick's been working a lot on00:13:03
his wrestling00:13:05
um just in general like trying to it's an00:13:08
area of his game he's been working on a00:13:10
lot so hopefully he'll figure out this00:13:12
spot right here Daniel's a master of00:13:15
using his body weight and he took that's00:13:17
what he's doing right now he sprawled00:13:19
out he's putting his letting Patrick00:13:21
Carry as much of his weight as he can00:13:23
and yep until he gets him folded over00:13:27
so bad00:13:29
does he already have a guillotine in00:13:31
there looks like he has a head and arm00:13:33
yep he's got a punch down on it but he00:13:37
let it go00:13:39
yes nicely done there by Don obedient00:13:42
you know getting to this point he's been00:13:43
through so much you mentioned winning00:13:45
the fights oh wow00:13:52
looking for a sweep while the heel00:13:54
hookers play he had to drop the hill but00:13:57
he's trying to collect it he's still got00:13:59
something there yeah good job00:14:03
Ryan thought about tapping it looked00:14:05
like it was baited the motion but he00:14:07
didn't didn't make it clear he wanted00:14:09
out I think he was ready to tap but then00:14:12
he escaped that happens sometimes00:14:18
donovania now looking to bring the other00:14:20
leg into the mix00:14:27
Daniel's got something trapped too I00:14:30
think00:14:32
Patrick seems to have the uh better00:14:34
position here00:14:35
because he's got control of Daniel's00:14:38
knee yeah00:14:43
Daniel's trying to keep some weight to00:14:45
keep some pressure on00:14:48
Patrick's leg but yeah I agree Daniel's00:14:51
Daniel's really in a better spot Patrick00:14:53
I mean I mean Patrick is yeah you're00:14:56
right sorry that's kind of he's got00:14:57
Daniel's leg pinched between his legs00:15:00
and the knees he got some good some good00:15:02
real estate on that knee there a little00:15:03
bit of the five between the legs too00:15:12
three minutes into this one the pace is00:15:15
slow but it was a fast and furious00:15:17
opening few moments with both guys00:15:19
getting on some submissions but uh both00:15:21
of them are the chess game is I think uh00:15:23
playing out right now both of them are00:15:25
in a position where with a slight00:15:27
adjustment they might have their00:15:29
opponent uh00:15:32
Patrick's trying to increase the weight00:15:34
he has on the toes there00:15:37
O'Brien trying to push him off he's to00:15:39
drop his lat a little bit more onto the00:15:41
toes and then just push his arm straight00:15:43
out00:15:47
and he is trying to turn his shoulder in00:15:49
on those toes a little bit better00:15:50
Patrick keeps disrupting yeah00:15:54
Daniel kept disrupting Patrick's uh grip00:15:57
with his foot00:15:59
he's got to be careful there00:16:02
I think Daniel's getting clear got the00:16:05
knee line very close00:16:09
[Applause]00:16:10
[Music]00:16:13
stuck with it00:16:15
maintain the aggressive posture it00:16:19
finally gets the tax00:16:21

the quarterfinals00:16:57
really high level Jiu Jitsu here Scott00:17:00
walk us through the end of this match00:17:02
all right so Patrick pulls the leg in00:17:04
and he's got a good grip above the knee00:17:07
line and then he just turns belly down00:17:09
with it and he's twisting in on that00:17:11
Hill when the twist happens he throws00:17:14
his hips forward which puts extra00:17:16
pressure on the knee and there it goes00:17:20
O'Brien in some pain and00:17:23
obviously in the submission and after00:17:25
the submission don't like to see him00:17:27
agreement like that but I mean there's00:17:28
an effective submission see when the00:17:30
hips go forward that's that's when a00:17:32
pushes have passed its uh Breaking Point00:17:34

Instagram as well00:20:05
pull that arm in for uh00:20:08
Kimora tent maybe a hip bump sweep off00:20:10
of it well not hip bump but a butterfly00:20:12
sweep by pulling that arm in00:20:16
the obedient now in the half guard00:20:22
see helenberg going a two on one grip on00:20:24
that right arm trying to set up an arm00:20:27
drag although he's lost that and he00:20:29
keeps going for that I think that's a00:20:30
big part of the strategy of trying to00:20:32
clench in close00:20:34
thank you00:20:38
when we talk about the size differences00:20:39
here I mean obviously weight plays a00:20:42
factor in grappling but when the bigger00:20:44
man is on bottom is is that weird for00:20:46
the smaller man who has top position in00:20:48
the ball does it feel different well it00:20:50
feels better than having the big guy on00:20:52
top and right that's for sure but at the00:20:55
same time uh the angles of everything00:20:58
are different the bigger guy has uh00:21:00
larger hips larger thighs so the angles00:21:03
for clearance are different00:21:06
um but definitely the smaller guy00:21:07
prefers to be on top00:21:10
you got to move around the muscle and if00:21:12
the muscles on top you ain't moving00:21:14
looks like hellenberg's trying to get a00:21:17
sweep here00:21:20
ah he's almost almost00:21:22
adjustment there by darbyan Dar beating00:21:26
it on the neck00:21:27
It's gotta heading off okay let's ain't00:21:28
hooking the legs00:21:31
Casey just rolled out of that00:21:34
that's a hard one to get on a big boy00:21:36
like that get the neck I have the00:21:37
shoulders all in there yeah sometimes00:21:39
you just can't close your grip around00:21:40
somebody if they're really big yeah00:21:44
see Dar beating tonight competing at00:21:46
nearly 200 pounds this is a guy that00:21:48
actually beat Tony Ferguson in mixed00:21:49
martial arts normally competing much00:21:51
smaller than he is here tonight but uh00:21:54
truly a Warrior inside Combat Sports00:21:57
with or without strikes00:22:03
ebi 14 the absolutes using every inch of00:22:06
the mat here inside the audit Academy00:22:08
Austin Texas take it to the middle away00:22:11
from the familiar stopping grounds of00:22:13
the Orpheum00:22:14
we almost went away from the familiar00:22:17
stomping ground to the mat right there00:22:22
calling uh taking a little mental break00:22:24
there00:22:26
a little knee brace adjustment can cost00:22:28
you a00:22:29
double legs for the crowd00:22:33
yeah that was that could be uh00:22:35
interesting development tonight with the00:22:37
more intimate setting and the bigger00:22:40
guys00:22:42
bigger bodies crashing into the crowd00:22:48
ebi 14 hits the road tonight again00:22:50
Austin Texas and we can come to your00:22:53
neighborhood you've got a spot you want00:22:54
to bring the Eddie Bravo Invitational to00:22:57
your neck of the woods reach out to00:22:59
Eddie Bravo you can do so on Instagram00:23:01
Eddie bravo1000:23:04
some business always opportunities for00:23:06
ebi to come to wherever you are and00:23:09
further the movement the submission only00:23:10
movement00:23:11
you know Eddie and uh Victor are doing a00:23:14
great job of policing the uh the spacing00:23:17
for the competitors to keep everybody00:23:18
safe it's the first time they're both00:23:21
actually very active tonight because of00:23:24
the space requirements we have usually00:23:26
it's one ref per match but with the00:23:28
absolutes there's a lot of body mass to00:23:31
consider here00:23:33
pro wrestling sometimes has to quote00:23:35
unquote reinforce the ring we got we got00:23:37
to use two referees00:23:39
uh00:23:41
eventually we'll have the steel K gbi00:23:44
finals Suite00:23:46
chairs optional00:23:49
halfway point of Regulation00:23:51
you only get paid half if you use the00:23:54
chairs00:23:58
[Music]00:23:59
[Applause]00:24:04
didn't work out quite as well as he00:24:05
wanted to but still the the effort was00:24:08
admirable he almost Landed It00:24:11
helenberg now on top in00:24:13
almost a clean sided looks now trying to00:24:17
work that left arm of Darby getting some00:24:20
isolation going there uh Kimora or00:24:22
Americana whatever Direction Karen's arm00:24:25
is facing in case he's looking to yeah00:24:28
Karen's doing a good job trying to keep00:24:29
that shoulder down not allowing the00:24:31
space but he's losing that battle00:24:34
neon belly dark00:24:36
move looks like he's out of danger for00:24:38
now but yeah he turned into it yeah00:24:48
it's a lot of weight00:24:54
this is a grueling process here now for00:24:56
car and he really needs to the faster he00:24:58
can get out of this position the less00:25:00
he'll have his endurance drained by all00:25:02
this weight he has to carry00:25:05
uh you can just00:25:07
it's like a gift wrap he can just drop00:25:09
his weight into it and just it almost00:25:11
seems like Karen sticking is pointing00:25:13
his elbow on purpose so he doesn't drive00:25:15
his chin in like he's going to shoving00:25:16
the elbow almost absolutely00:25:20
well you know we're keeping it clean it00:25:23
is quick I do that00:25:26
[Laughter]00:25:33
he's trying to roll with it he's got00:25:36
some good yeah00:25:39
upcoming here for helenberg00:25:42
car's in a great spot to defend though00:25:45
yeah he's trying to keep some weight on00:25:47
it without a deep hook and he's got a00:25:49
he's got a moment to pull out now00:25:53
I just it's a risk you got to go through00:25:55
the fire there it is00:25:57
[Applause]00:25:58
[Music]00:25:59
[Applause]00:26:02
left to work here in regulation once00:26:04
Casey was just on the hands it's a kind00:26:06
of low percentage armbar at that point00:26:08
without the Deep hook on the arm because00:26:09
there's only so much real estate you can00:26:11
have once you start cranking with the00:26:12
hips it's turning good for a second but00:26:15
he pulled it off00:26:17
it could be it could have an injured00:26:19
left leg already so let's see if Casey00:26:21
still keeps uh Target that yeah00:26:25
it will stay out of danger for now but00:26:26
now helenberg readjusting00:26:32
on the edge of the mat here00:26:36
it's left basically00:26:40
right time I'm gonna get a Readjustment00:26:43
here back in the center00:26:47
obedient00:26:48
choosing to take care of that uh00:26:52
leg brace uh before the Readjustment00:26:56
it's not close enough00:26:59
go it keeps going00:27:12
helenberg is primarily attacked the arms00:27:14
here of Darby didn't work the legs a00:27:16
moment ago but uh you see his uh00:27:19
aggressive nature when he's on top and00:27:21
even when he's on bottom is to attack00:27:22
the arms of darbyan used to be he was00:27:25
setting up an arm triangle for a second00:27:27
you know it's a standard tactic in00:27:29
Jiu-Jitsu to pick a body part and just00:27:32
keep attacking it because you're wearing00:27:34
it down with every attack00:27:36
and that's what he's doing whether it be00:27:38
a leg or an arm you just keep attacking00:27:41
that same arm and it gets weaker and00:27:43
weaker throughout the match tenderize it00:27:45
a bit yeah sometimes you got to cook00:27:47
them00:27:49
be a slow cook right00:27:54
it's like that Barbecue in Austin Texas00:27:56
that's right that's right tender00:27:59
yeah [Music]00:28:01
he's locked up got the arm 40 seconds00:28:04
though00:28:14
he was very game00:28:17
but the end comes in regulation for00:28:19
Casey hellenberg ladies and gentlemen we00:28:22
have00:28:28
Lee helenberg00:28:30
[Applause]00:28:35
Helen Burke getting it done in00:28:37
regulation banking that all important00:28:39
potential money should he get it done00:28:41
and uh he slow cooked it for the subs00:28:44
Scott Ross absolutely uh he kept working00:28:47
those arms got the gift wrap to set up00:28:49
the triangle and then used to Triangle00:28:52
to take the arm bar and uh once he got00:28:54
there dropped that hip in and that was00:28:56
it00:28:57
great work00:29:00
Casey hellenberg getting it done moving00:29:02
on to the quarterfinals here in Austin I00:29:05
like the way he kept control of the arm00:29:06
as he set up the triangle so that it was00:29:08
didn't have to waste any effort chasing00:29:11
it after it was on00:29:20
Beyond an Invitational five Champion00:29:22
Adam big red sacknoff returns to ebi00:29:25
representing 10th Planet San Mateo00:29:27
standing in his way of ebi gold is the00:29:30
80cc veteran Jessie Ray childery00:29:32
representing nice guy submission00:29:34
fighting on the way it's sacknoff versus00:29:37
children this is ebi 14.00:29:43
foreign00:29:53
welcome to ebi veteran representing 10th00:29:56
Planet San Mateo it is Adam big red00:29:59
sector00:30:00
[Applause]00:30:07
and his opponent representing nice guys00:30:09
submission fighting Jesse Ray jilbrey00:30:21
foreign00:30:28
it is the absolute you can definitely00:30:31
see this this is a heavyweight a fair00:30:33
Adam sacking off waiting at 233.400:30:35
gildery at 3 10.400:30:39
he went right to his butt right away00:30:40
butterfly butter open butterfly guard00:30:43
looking to get under uh children there00:30:45
I'm sure that's a pretty good strategy00:30:47
children seems to carry a lot of top00:30:49
side weight00:30:51
said he wanted to make a statement in00:30:54
this tournament said he wanted to become00:30:56
a star as a heavyweight submission only00:30:58
Grappler and gets an opportunity here00:31:01
tonight yeah he's got an amazing full00:31:03
guard really good rubber guard game00:31:05
especially for a big guy unnaturally00:31:07
flexible00:31:08
um and so uh yeah let's look to see some00:31:10
play from the guard00:31:12
trying to lock up that right arm of00:31:14
children00:31:16
that 280cc vets right here00:31:19
both been in the Big Show so00:31:25
yeah00:31:26
but I know Adam's been working arm drags00:31:28
a lot he likes to pull you into a clinch00:31:30
with that where you can set up the suite00:31:32
or submissions as uh Eric mentioned00:31:34
Adam's uh00:31:36
full guard is lethal00:31:42
it's that joke00:31:47
anyway Adam's um00:31:49
also he's almost always the the smaller00:31:51
guy in the absolute division almost all00:31:54
of his matches he says he's been the00:31:56
smaller guy so carrying a little bit00:31:58
extra weight he's used to that00:32:00
that's interesting for a guy is 23300:32:02
pounds to be the smaller guy I know00:32:04
right probably the only format in which00:32:06
he would be the smaller guys00:32:10
sack now sitting up trying to grab the00:32:12
legs of children but now bails on it00:32:16
see if we get a scramble here00:32:18
he's doing a good job of scooting his00:32:19
butt back and not allowing children to00:32:21
lay the weight onto him he wants his00:32:23
entry00:32:24
um done his way he was making sure not00:32:27
to get the caught anywhere00:32:30
he's got full guard on the reset so00:32:32
let's see if he gets to work on his00:32:33
rubber yards00:32:36
had a couple resets early here I think00:32:39
that speaks to the size of these guys I00:32:40
mean they've got 40 feet to work across00:32:43
and a couple resets here it's not not00:32:46
big you know 40 feet not enough00:32:50
coming up on two and a half in Two00:32:53
regulations the full guard here for00:32:56
sacknoff00:32:59
ebi veteran Denny procopos coaching his00:33:03
his Protege Adam00:33:06
yep00:33:14
I don't know00:33:18
children trying to frame up something on00:33:21
the neck there00:33:22
so I found now sacked off maybe gonna00:33:24
get to a base maybe try to get on top00:33:25
here he does he's gonna reset here as00:33:28
they nearly went off the mat again00:33:37
really cool being in Austin Texas here00:33:40
tonight on at Academy00:33:42
make sure you suck up00:33:45
daddy offering advice to Adam and00:33:47
children yeah telling them no that's not00:33:50
gonna happen I'm not going to do that no00:33:52
no no we talk about how uh there's an00:33:55
atmosphere generally in the Orpheum00:33:56
there's a completely different sort of00:33:58
atmosphere here yeah00:34:03
take your time00:34:05
it's a lot more intimate a lot louder00:34:08
with Denny procopos uh always a loud00:34:11
cornerman and even louder here tonight00:34:13
when you're in this uh this type of room00:34:18
and now uh Adam's got the full guard00:34:21
shoulder pressure drop your left00:34:24
shoulder drop00:34:29
uh he loves his arm triangle00:34:32
he's got a little Skydive going with his00:34:34
legs00:34:36
Skydive yeah when his uh had him on the00:34:40
full Mount when he hooks the back of uh00:34:43
children's legs the back of his knees00:34:45
with his hooks Grapevine yeah Grapevine00:34:47
skydiving Eddie refers to it in the00:34:48
Skydive as well because you want to00:34:50
press your weight get torso straight00:34:51
down Skydive sounds a lot more dangerous00:34:54
it's more fun00:34:58
are you trying to set up this arm00:34:59
triangle now get the he's got the head00:35:01
and armpit control and looking to get to00:35:03
The Chopping box which is one step00:35:05
before being able to squeeze pressure00:35:06
for them now he dropped his head down00:35:08
but he lost control of the arm and while00:35:10
he's doing now he's back in half guard00:35:16
but he is trying to keep keep that arm00:35:18
collected so he can go back to that arm00:35:20
triangle yeah and the pressure is good00:35:21
it's nice and steady with his left00:35:23
shoulder00:35:26
and it's helping to keep Jesse uh just00:35:29
already in that position too it's hard00:35:31
for him to come up when he's got to push00:35:33
uh Adam's uh head in the rest of his00:35:36
body up in order to do so over the00:35:39
halfway point of Regulation here00:35:42
TJ DeSantis Scott Ross here Cruz ebi 1400:35:45
the absolutes it is Adam sacknoff on the00:35:48
top of Jessie Ray children yes00:35:53
slacking off passing here to side00:36:04
foreign00:36:11
our official sponsor of the Eddie Bravo00:36:14
Invitational hemp gear for victory join00:36:16
the fight at dsgear.com00:36:19
yes00:36:21
go for it more00:36:27
and we had an armed Guillotine for Adam00:36:32
got long hair can be an extra helmet00:36:35
yeah yeah00:36:39
pushing it away00:36:42
[Applause]00:36:46
as long as it's not in the face yeah00:36:50
in the last tournament I saw I saw Palm00:36:52
strike so everything looks legal here00:36:54
oh00:37:03
big submission for the Kentucky native00:37:07
Jesse Ray childery00:37:08
getting it done sacknoff looked like he00:37:10
was in a good position but maybe the00:37:13
aggression got the better of him ladies00:37:16
and gentlemen we have a winner by00:37:17
submission let's hear it for Jessie Ray00:37:20
children00:37:23
[Music]00:37:26
perhaps take a look at the replay there00:37:29
to see how quickly it would end Jesse00:37:32
Ray childery got an opportunity when he00:37:35
did he did not miss Scott Walker through00:37:36
this more well Jester Ray was able to00:37:39
just slip it in when Adam leaned in on00:37:41
it and then he pulled it out and over00:37:44
and he wasn't able to go over his body00:37:47
and that was it he had a tap because uh00:37:50
he ran into a fulcrum and the shoulder00:37:52
was just gonna pop if you didn't have00:37:55
uh and I think Jessica Ray just grabbed00:37:57
it sometimes when the top player if they00:37:59
lean in really heavy it's kind of easy00:38:02
to set that up if they don't don't react00:38:04
to it right away Jesse Ray children on00:38:07
his way to the quarterfinals here at the00:38:09
Eddie Bravo Invitational00:38:13
[Music]00:38:16
kicking off the right side of the00:38:18
bracket is ebi 6 finalist roostom the00:38:20
Russian Bear chizzierev tonight he00:38:22
returns to ebi hungry for absolute gold00:38:25
standing in his way is the ibjjf world00:38:28
champion Andrew Kimler representing00:38:31
Texas punishment crew from the honored00:38:33
Academy this is ebi 14.00:38:40
foreign00:38:43
[Music]00:39:02
and his opponent representing Texas00:39:04
punishment crew Andrew Kimler00:39:07
[Applause]00:39:12
ready do it00:39:15
our first match of the right side of the00:39:18
bracket it is the Russian bear or some00:39:19
chizif00:39:21
standing over Andrew Kimler Kimler the00:39:24
Texas native who wants to make a big00:39:27
statement here taking out the former00:39:28
finalists in the first round and do it00:39:30
in front of uh his Statesman00:39:36
guard knows rooster one is a strong00:39:38
wrestler00:39:39
no probably not a good idea to engage in00:39:42
that aspect of the game if uh you know00:39:45
you don't have the those credentials his00:39:47
snapdown is wicked and I wouldn't like00:39:50
to fill that we saw Roost him in the00:39:53
first absolutes really be uh you know00:39:56
aggressive on top with his pressure and00:39:59
that wore down a lot of his opponents00:40:00
and he went three and one that night00:40:02
winning two of his matches going00:40:04
overtime and if Kimberly can avoid you00:40:07
know having to be in the bottom for more00:40:09
than you know seven or eight minutes I'm00:40:11
sure he would uh enjoy doing that rather00:40:13
than going through the hell that is the00:40:15
top ride of shizio00:40:18
we had a good pass attempt early on but00:40:20
uh yeah it's the same kind of step over00:40:22
pass as flying into sidebar to side00:40:25
mounts00:40:30
foreign00:40:38
faced uh rustam in the first round of00:40:41
the last absolute Amir says that uh00:40:43
Russian's the strongest man he's ever00:40:45
faced and I know that uh amir's gone up00:40:48
against a lot of big guys00:40:49
so00:40:51
I thought that was notable nice attempt00:40:54
at a flying topside triangle by ruseum00:41:05
huh00:41:09
Kimler has you know conceded the top00:41:11
position but it's the top position where00:41:13
he's not wearing the the weight being on00:41:15
bottom and I think that uh it's gonna00:41:17
play to him his Advantage I think the00:41:19
deeper this goes because you know being00:41:21
underneath Roost and chizyav is uh it's00:41:24
not fun just just being under him is is00:41:27
grating on uh your cardio taxing uh00:41:30
taxing you wouldn't you don't want that00:41:31
you know you gotta fight four times to00:41:33
win this thing well you know in00:41:35
wrestling we we typically would say that00:41:37
the shorter person has an advantage and00:41:39
just wrestling because they can do the00:41:41
level shifts a little bit better they00:41:42
can drop lower uh so you know sitting00:41:45
down is one way of taking away some of00:41:47
that wrestling advantage that rustam has00:41:49
you know and trying to take it straight00:41:51
into a jiu jitsu game where00:41:54
um00:41:55
Andrew has more of an advantage yeah he00:41:58
seems a lot more comfortable down here00:41:59
fending off the passing attempts and00:42:02
looking for some kind of counter yeah00:42:03
and like he's got triangle legs you know00:42:06
you look at those lines he was actually00:42:07
right in the position for triangle right00:42:09
there too as you said it Kimler found00:42:10
Jiu Jitsu from his uncle Who convinced00:42:13
him to start trying uh and training he00:42:17
was a blue belt and seven years later00:42:19
Andrew Kimler now on the map of the00:42:21
Eddie Bravo Invitational in the absolute00:42:23
tournament00:42:27
and you know chizif is weighted to get00:42:30
this opportunity he00:42:31
came so close the first time at becoming00:42:34
the first champion and I'm sure he's00:42:35
thought about that a lot leading into00:42:37
this tournament and we talked about at00:42:39
the top you know the tactics the he he00:42:41
had a good game plan the first time00:42:43
making it to the finals I'm sure his00:42:44
game plan is even more refined now00:42:47
now in on the leg here Kimler able to00:42:51
defend00:42:55
Kimler doing uh so far a good job of uh00:42:57
keeping roostum from getting into any00:42:59
really deep Waters as far as offense00:43:01
goes and keeping his weight off of him I00:43:04
think is a great tactic we've been using00:43:06
and I I think russum's faking that ankle00:43:09
lock really to try to like help him Pat00:43:11
get the pass00:43:14
like he wants to toss the ankles or just00:43:17
uh get a Tori on him going00:43:24
okay got the hip control00:43:33
that's generally one of the best ways to00:43:35
go with somebody who insists on playing00:43:36
a bottom game and go underneath the legs00:43:39
and toss them00:43:40
to get to their back00:43:43
just say no00:43:51
there were some disengages there takes a00:43:53
deep breath uh I don't think he's gassy00:43:55
might be a little bit frustrated though00:43:56
he's not he's not able to get where he00:43:58
wants to go yeah it looks like a little00:43:59
mental fatigue and how the pass was00:44:02
there earlier now it's not quite here00:44:03
now I'm dealing with these legs00:44:10
halfway point of Regulation00:44:12
right he's almost got that Nice Slice00:44:16
uh I'm gonna get that leg back in I'm00:44:19
just trying to go for that inside some00:44:20
coffee good sprawl out of that uh00:44:25
Kimler fluid with his movement there00:44:28
going inverted and then back up on his00:44:31
back not giving up any position even00:44:33
though he's more aggressive in that00:44:35
moment than he has been pretty much00:44:36
throughout the entire match thus far00:44:46
Kim are very flexible with his legs00:44:50
to do it it works00:44:55
everybody go for it yeah his inversions00:44:57
are all over the place00:45:00
so you have disengages back00:45:04
as soon as rooster gets anywhere close00:45:07
to the pass Andrew immediately inverts00:45:10
is making it quite frustrating for her00:45:20
we're so now in on that leg do you think00:45:22
he's more committed to that leg than uh00:45:24
now he's going for now00:45:27
I think that's a change of uh tactics00:45:29
because he hasn't been able to get that00:45:31
pass right Scott no absolutely but also00:45:32
the more he commits to actually going00:45:34
for the ankle lock00:45:36
the more that Andrew's going to have to00:45:38
commit to defending the ankle lock and00:45:40
that could actually open up but if you00:45:42
if you ever catch somebody not00:45:44
responding to your fake right you make00:45:46
it real00:45:49
another thing about submissions00:45:50
obviously you would love it to finish00:45:51
the fight but if it induces a scramble00:45:53
and furthers your overall game there's00:45:55
little victories in that by itself no00:45:56
absolutely absolutely sometimes what00:45:58
you're like definitely with legs00:46:00
sometimes like a counter attack you have00:46:02
no expectation of it working but what00:46:04
you're hoping is it'll make your00:46:05
opponent move which will open up your00:46:07
defensive opportunities00:46:09
wash your arm ahead00:46:10
inverted again for a brief moment was00:46:13
Kimler spins away again now cheesy of00:46:16
trying to get past00:46:18
and they're yeah you don't see a lot of00:46:21
big guys play inverted like that though00:46:25
you expected of the 135 division not so00:46:28
much in the absolute00:46:33
I think this is something that chizzy00:46:34
had really didn't think that he was00:46:35
going to have to battle through here and00:46:37
that mental fatigue that could really00:46:39
pay dividends if this goes another two00:46:40
and a half minutes and and we see00:46:42
overtime00:46:43
because it's a whole new ball game when00:46:45
we go to the one overtime just one00:46:47
overtime to get it all done00:46:51
now in on the neck is chizzy Ave00:46:54
it's a great job of controlling the00:46:55
wrist that was a choking arm00:47:00
s00:47:02
trying to get into business here00:47:06
to save off danger good job by Kepler00:47:10
trying to attempt a single right there00:47:12
still got to defend his head in arm now00:47:18
by these two heavyweights00:47:22
that was great card recovery Andrew's00:47:23
been showing off00:47:40
90 seconds left in regulation00:47:47
who's always trying to keep weight on00:47:49
him as much as he can even if he's not00:47:50
successful with the passing that is00:47:52
going to help fatigue his opponent which00:47:56
will have some dividends if they do hit00:47:58
over time00:48:16
which in the past dissipated at that00:48:19
point00:48:22
you slice Wiggles through00:48:25
and it's still in half guard twister00:48:27
side control pass nope because he have00:48:30
trying to attack that left arm of Kimler00:48:32
he's got 40 seconds to make something00:48:34
happen00:48:36
yeah00:48:39
looks unless he has a sneaky attack from00:48:43
from up here looks like this one's going00:48:45
into okay00:48:54
20 seconds left I already could spin00:48:57
around for Kimura00:48:58
[Music]00:49:01
10 seconds here Kimler still defending00:49:04
trying to go for a neck crank thinking00:49:06
about tapping is Kim similar in a lot of00:49:09
pain00:49:14
wow another thing I think Timberland00:49:17
knew where he was time wise yeah and he00:49:19
just gritted through it part of a00:49:22
warrior there00:49:24
so now we will go to overtime only one00:49:26
overtime period here in our first round00:49:29
she's able to have the opportunity to00:49:31
take either spiderweb or back there are00:49:34
two ways to win submission or fastest00:49:36
Escape time that escape time very00:49:39
important here is we only have one00:49:40
overtime period but rustam is awesome00:49:44
that escape and he's gonna grab the back00:49:46
of his neck00:49:47
off go oh not this time he went with the00:49:51
yes00:49:55
and he's got a turn he's got to turn00:49:57
fast again to scrape them off Kim were00:49:59
able to now just stays in the back where00:50:01
he grabs the head00:50:03
wow beautiful adjustment00:50:04
nope he can't go for a leg of that yeah00:50:08
no legs yeah here we go not a lot of00:50:10
time here cheesy EV really doesn't need00:50:13
to get aggressive at all I mean if00:50:14
finish doesn't Bank him any more money00:50:16
you got to think maybe the Russian00:50:17
Bear's just gonna hold on and ride this00:50:19
one out it's the safest thing to do here00:50:20
I'd say if it's 30 seconds and under you00:50:22
just hold yeah there's more than 3000:50:24
seconds that is time for them to work00:50:26
he's established his ride Time by taking00:50:28
the defense first go00:50:31
and I don't know if that would00:50:33
necessarily be his oops00:50:37
now he came up to the arms00:50:45
no when he switched his hips he lost the00:50:49
arm triangle and became a judo hold like00:50:52
well like a side control scarf hole00:50:56
Andrew Kimler wins00:50:58
that's a wrap wow00:51:00
from out of nowhere Andrew Kimler moving00:51:03
on00:51:07
oh ladies and gentlemen we have a winner00:51:10
in overtime due to quickest Escape time00:51:13
it is Andrew Kimler00:51:18
just when you thought it was all but a00:51:21
formality the Russian Bear dispatched00:51:23
yeah00:51:26
expect the unexpected so rustam comes up00:51:30
for the arm trying on that's still legit00:51:31
that's still legit but when the arm came00:51:33
out it's no longer an arm triangle and00:51:35
definitely when rustam switches his hips00:51:37
that's just a control point he could00:51:39
have turned it into a sub but he lost00:51:41
the submission chain there was a moment00:51:43
where he just had control that's not00:51:45
what it is you've got to think that if00:51:47
he had the opportunity to do it over00:51:48
again Russian would be a bit more00:51:51
conservative but it's Andrew Kimler00:51:53
getting it done in his home state of00:51:54
Texas he moves on to the quarterfinals00:51:57
here at the absolutes00:51:58

checkmat it is Matt kershwin00:52:47
[Applause]00:52:51
[Music]00:53:01
Aaron Johnson immediately takes a seat00:53:06
kershwin was really uh had a breakout00:53:09
performance in his first ebi appearance00:53:12
and wants to build off of that tonight00:53:14
he was one of the uh one of the dark00:53:16
horses but right now he's got a fend off00:53:18
this attack here from Tex Johnson00:53:22
vicious little crap tight on that ankle00:53:25
there yeah I had breakfast with uh Texas00:53:27
morning and he actually showed me that00:53:29
ink a lot oh really yeah it hurt00:53:33
sure kind of breakfast do you guys have00:53:35
that's it's a jiu jitsu thing apparently00:53:39
joint locked with your scrambles pun00:53:42
intended00:53:43
I'll let that one pass I actually was00:53:45
pretty good thanks00:53:50
Johnson now in the00:53:52
closed guard see if he launches00:53:54
something towards kershwin I mentioned00:53:56
kirschwan's first ebi performance he00:53:58
went two and one00:54:00
I looked at a wrist lock00:54:08
it's one way to deal with someone who's00:54:10
framing on your throat00:54:12
wrist lock00:54:17
Aaron Johnson would love to go far in00:54:19
this tournament he's actually one in one00:54:21
in the overall head-to-head matchup with00:54:23
the King Gordon Ryan nice arm dry took00:54:25
him over I got into an underpass and00:54:27
then I'm looking back nice see if00:54:29
Kirsten can go put together put together00:54:31
two Dynamic passes to get him to the00:54:33
back very good stuff00:54:35
Johnson has no hooks here on this though00:54:38
but he is in business maybe a swift yeah00:54:41
he's trying to drive through with his00:54:43
knee to try to roll him over but it00:54:45
didn't didn't really uh destabilize his00:54:47
opponent the way he wanted to00:54:51
both of these guys weighing in at around00:54:53
the same weight 223.2 for Johnson 22000:54:57
flat or curse when00:55:10
and then Aaron at an all-you-can-eat00:55:12
buffet after he weighed in so00:55:22
thank you00:55:26
TJ to Santa Scott Ross here Cruz we are00:55:29
live tonight from the onit academy in00:55:31
Austin Texas tonight we close out the00:55:33
year of 2017 for the Eddie Bravo00:55:36
Invitational been a heck of a year00:55:44
and that's better off playing from the00:55:46
ground when he was standing he was00:55:49
leaving opportunities for leg weaves00:55:51
giving Aaron an opportunity to isolate00:55:54
those legs but oh there's that sweep arm00:55:56
drag with a little bit of a butterfly in00:55:58
there00:55:59
go back exposure following up on that00:56:01
with a pass00:56:05
he's got a pass00:56:13
switch the sides his texts00:56:18
drive that weight on them put some00:56:19
shoulder pressure00:56:21
Justice00:56:24
nice meat hook00:56:27
keeping his fingers inside uh person's00:56:30
armpit which one's got to be careful00:56:31
with his back exposure right now Texas00:56:33
getting the gift wrap going he's just00:56:35
looking to get one of maybe the top side00:56:37
hook and rip them over and there it is00:56:39
and he slid that knee and trying to lead00:56:42
with the bottom legs that's the hard leg00:56:44
to get in yep good job by kirsh window00:56:46
turning into his opponent Just Enough00:56:48
full Mount is better than back Mount so00:56:50
you know as far as things go00:56:55
four minutes into regulation Johnson in00:56:58
business00:57:00
in the back earlier but he never got his00:57:03
hooks in and now he's in a much more00:57:04
dominant position but kirschland trying00:57:06
to go out backwards00:57:07
[Applause]00:57:29
I like the way uh Texas always finding a00:57:32
good grip either like on the triceps or00:57:35
the back of Matt's head trying to keep00:57:37
weight on him so he can pull them in for00:57:39
a clinch opportunity00:57:41
ah nice inversion00:57:46
of course what I'm trying to pass there00:57:48
but Johnson making the proper00:57:50
adjustments not letting him through now00:57:51
he's got a hold of that arm what's he00:57:53
looking for here's gone well uh he's he00:57:55
wants to pull Matt in uh so that he can00:57:59
either Elevate him with his legs or he00:58:01
can set up a butterfly sweep that way00:58:03
Marcella Garcia is very good using those00:58:05
two ohm ones Eddie Comics like she's two00:58:07
oh now he's got a foot but he lost it00:58:11
um but yeah when you get a two-on-one00:58:13
like that you want to drag your opponent00:58:14
straight into you and depending on the00:58:17
reaction that sets up what your00:58:18
opportunities are00:58:23
now he's trying to keep one leg isolated00:58:27
and he's constantly taking away the00:58:29
frames that Matt's placing up00:58:34
so you guys head to head here00:58:38
first I'm trying to make some space here00:58:40
trying to clear those legs00:58:45
nice and trying to get for an arm bar00:58:50
it's got that yeah try to isolate that00:58:53
arm pulling it out for a Kimura if you00:58:55
can if you can straighten it out more00:58:56
first one now defending our bar upcoming00:58:59
yeah he's got a deep00:59:02
now his leg position could be a little00:59:05
bit better the leg would better over the00:59:08
face instead of inside the arm nicely00:59:10
done the first time able to stop and get00:59:12
his own three looks like he was in00:59:13
danger there I mean no he was in real00:59:15
danger yeah now the leg position was00:59:17
huge there if he had that like over his00:59:19
face and was able to create a little00:59:20
more separation with a definite or an X00:59:22
break right there yeah weave the other00:59:24
leg in definitely00:59:34
six and a half minutes over that Mark00:59:36
here into regulation00:59:40
you see Johnson very aggressive whether00:59:42
he's in top position or on bottom he's00:59:45
very offensive minded where Chris00:59:46
Williams is even in top position has had00:59:49
to be more defensive primarily yeah00:59:51
Aaron's definitely the one setting the00:59:53
tone for the match and where the match00:59:54
is going to go and he's got a good game00:59:57
a good game plan it's working for him00:59:59
and just hasn't been able to capitalize01:00:01
on the opportunities he's creating but01:00:03
he is creating opportunities01:00:11
these guys definitely working Christmas01:00:12
with a big breath uh there it's hot in01:00:16
this room as well I mean there's a lot01:00:17
of people in here it's a small space01:00:19
these guys are doing work it's01:00:24
feels like a June evening not a December01:00:26
one here in Austin a hot summer night01:00:29
middle of December01:00:35
foreign01:00:44
again two hands on the01:00:47
left arm of course one now it bails on01:00:50
it01:01:02
yeah I think that whenever whenever Matt01:01:04
comes up close that's when Aaron decides01:01:06
to go for the head grip and when he's01:01:08
far away he likes to grab the wrist it's01:01:11
you know he's got the ability to put01:01:13
more weight on Matt's head when Matt's01:01:15
close or rather than having it far out01:01:24
90 seconds remain here in regulation01:01:36
we see the advancement of action really01:01:38
off of everything that Aaron Johnson is01:01:41
doing is is Chris William just having01:01:43
issues here Eric getting his game going01:01:45
is he trying to solve the puzzle yeah it01:01:47
just seems like he has the intent of01:01:49
wanting to pass the guard and if that's01:01:52
not working he doesn't really have01:01:54
another option to go to like jumping01:01:56
back on legs or pulling back on guard or01:01:59
taking another attack he kind of has a01:02:01
as a single mindset here and01:02:04
unfortunately if it's not paying off it01:02:05
makes for kind of stay with me kind of a01:02:08
match kind of makes me think that01:02:10
kirchworm might have wanted to have been01:02:12
the sit-down player you know sometimes01:02:15
like when that's what your main strategy01:02:16
is and somebody else takes that strategy01:02:18
right but what do I do yeah01:02:24
and I think the attacks because Aaron01:02:27
has been so active the whole time it's01:02:29
really made01:02:30
um matched gun shy as far as committing01:02:33
to the past all the way he was really01:02:34
pretty close on a leg lock very early on01:02:36
close the game is back before so I think01:02:38
that really made him go conservative for01:02:41
the rest of the match yeah a lot of01:02:42
times the buyer player bottom player is01:02:44
planning on using the top players01:02:48
pressure against them and so if you know01:02:50
the guys trying to play that way you're01:02:52
like well maybe I don't want to put that01:02:54
pressure there exactly01:02:55
Styles make fights tactics have put this01:02:58
one 10 minutes through now we are going01:03:02
to overtime we'll see what uh the01:03:04
strategies are for these guys as it01:03:06
looks like Aaron Tex Johnson will be on01:03:09
the back here in the top of the first01:03:11
overtime Kershaw on defense01:03:17
I want to remind you we only have one01:03:19
overtime here in our opening round match01:03:23
up so we saw that in our last match01:03:25
ready Escape time no depending on when01:03:28
it happens is all the more important uh01:03:32
he's he's almost lost the hip control we01:03:34
can still pull him back in a nice deep01:03:36
hook back in yeah there it is it01:03:38
established the position there good01:03:41
Crossing his ankles too which is usually01:03:42
a No-No but as far as keeping control01:03:44
right now it's a safe bet and they're01:03:47
really high a little bit to the side01:03:48
that makes that ankle look that's there01:03:51
hard but he's pulling back in or he's01:03:54
about to oh I like the way he went under01:03:56
the arm for a second01:03:57
that helped him like try to change that01:03:59
angle but he's on the way out yeah01:04:02
uh Chris wine grabbing at his chest a01:04:04
little bit I don't know if he has a rib01:04:06
injury or01:04:09
it wasn't a ton of time that he was01:04:12
controlled but if he's hurt at all I01:04:15
mean that's that's going to affect him01:04:16
in the rest of this match and moving01:04:18
forward 30 seconds01:04:20
33 seconds 33 seconds Ready Set01:04:25
let's see what Chris worm wants to do01:04:26
here she's gonna try to go to that body01:04:28
triangle01:04:30
he misses on it01:04:32
that's it that's it wow Aaron Tex01:04:35

in this tournament that goes to overtime01:05:09
without a submission these guys really01:05:10
worked hard for it it was a bit of a01:05:12
chess match for curse one and uh he was01:05:16
in good position here in overtime but01:05:18
Aaron Johnson took the initiative got01:05:20
free and he moves on to the01:05:22
quarterfinals01:05:24
I fought a great hat fight there01:05:25
bringing the choking arm over when he01:05:27
finally had an opportunity to get his01:05:29
hips out made a nice risk at pushing the01:05:31
pushing the hook off and getting out01:05:33

foreign01:06:44
[Applause]01:06:50
Travis Moore in the all gray gonzalves01:06:53
in the black with green trim01:06:58
consalva says he actually performs01:07:00
better in absolute matches because01:07:01
people underestimate them and uh he's a01:07:06
little bit faster than the bigger guys01:07:08
Travis Moore looking for some Redemption01:07:10
he was a part of ebi 9 unfortunately for01:07:13
him on that night he lost his first01:07:15
match to Kyle bayme so he would he would01:07:17
like to you know start a new here and01:07:20
start a run with a victory but Marcel01:07:23
can solve is no easy out yeah it's a01:07:25
tough one to find Redemption on01:07:28
yeah Cowboy is a monster though so you01:07:31
know it's not like01:07:33
there's no loss in uh stature to01:07:36
anybody's lost Kyle01:07:39
Gonzalez no stranger to ebi his ebi01:07:42
record two and one he got wins over01:07:44
Oliver Taza Dan berovic and then ran01:07:47
into Gordon Ryan where he was defeated01:07:49
in overtime by submission01:07:53
and he's uh he's really nice guy I've01:07:56
met him before he actually showed up to01:07:57
one of my classes and which of course I01:07:58
asked him to show something01:08:00
why am I teaching this guy01:08:16
you mentioned gonzalba's feeling that he01:08:18
does better at Absolute type of01:08:20
tournaments do you train any different01:08:23
when you know you're going to be in a01:08:24
tournament where you're seeing a variety01:08:26
of different body types yes absolutely01:08:28
uh there's uh different body types have01:08:30
different uh strategies uh no doubt uh I01:08:34
believe uh Gonzalez is the smallest01:08:37
competitor so typically you want to01:08:39
avoid positions where you're going to go01:08:40
on bottom uh the one differential would01:08:43
be if you're a leg lock guy you might be01:08:45
you know willing to take that risk01:08:47
anyway01:08:48
but typically you want to avoid and so01:08:51
that that that's a big decision right01:08:53
there on a tape top or bottom but also01:08:56
you need to roll with bigger guys so01:08:58
you're used to carrying them away01:09:01
you mentioned the smaller stature of01:09:04
Gonzalez he weighed in at 174.4 3001:09:08
pounds lighter than Travis Moore01:09:13
and that was his walking around bulking01:09:16
up because he's going to do absolute01:09:17
sway you know I I think he might compete01:09:20
at 55 or maybe even 45.01:09:27
looks like he might be setting up a cap01:09:29
slicer here01:09:40
oh Fancy Feet01:09:43
it picked me out01:09:47
are you ready for the uh01:09:49
the get down01:09:54
it comes later tonight Victor davila's01:09:56
son Tori it's his 18th birthday tonight01:09:57
we're gonna have to go celebrate here in01:09:59
Austin happy birthday01:10:05
I think Tori's got the dance moves oh01:10:07
yeah01:10:10
a piece of moves here from Travis Moore01:10:12
trying to get top position unable to do01:10:14
so Gonzalez makes the adjustment01:10:21
like Travis isn't a01:10:24
looking to get that insights in Kaku but01:10:27
Marcel's doing a great job of keeping01:10:29
the knee bent and not allowing any gap01:10:31
between his thigh and calf for the left01:10:33
leg the Trap is to enter01:10:42
if you're joining us late the king01:10:43

teacher to Santa Scott Ross here Cruz01:10:56
live on it Academy in Austin Texas01:11:03
gets his knee out though on a transition01:11:07
it's almost able to stifle the01:11:09
advancement of top position by Moore01:11:11
keeps that arm straight out pushes him01:11:13
away01:11:32
uh looked like Travis well he's01:11:35
abandoned that that approach but it01:11:37
looked like he was trying to isolate an01:11:38
arm for a Kimura but01:11:48

foreign01:18:05
matchups Gordon Ryan the champion taking01:18:07
on 10 PQ winner Patrick donabedian01:18:12
think about the journey for donovedian01:18:14
having to go through four match-ups just01:18:16
to get here now on the map with the01:18:18
champ01:18:22
that was interesting Patrick's sitting01:18:23
down going straight into uh trying to01:18:26
pull Gordon into a leg lock01:18:29
by isolating a leg but uh Gordon kind of01:18:32
sprawled past that01:18:34
now Patrick's doing a good job framing01:18:36
trying to keep Gordon from dropping all01:18:38
of his weight on him01:18:41
I didn't really hear the Dulce of tones01:18:44
of John danaher inside the honored01:18:46
Academy01:18:47
uh01:18:49
Patrick Gordon's hunting for the elbow01:18:52
to try to isolate the arm right now01:18:54
maybe set up a Kimura or a back tape01:18:59
it's not often you hear the word dynasty01:19:01
in Combat Sports but the dinner death01:19:03
squad is definitely that and there's an01:19:05
arm bar upcoming Here01:19:07
There It Is01:19:12
submission is 14th straight01:19:16
stoppage here in01:19:19

a wrap we will make it official01:19:27
ladies and gentlemen01:19:30
General regulation he is the king Gordon01:19:34
Ryan01:19:38
armbar getting it done forward Ryan 14-001:19:41
now in this Eddie Bravo Invitational01:19:46
Tournament setting and he really made01:19:49
short work here of God obedience yeah01:19:51
well the way he grabbed it like he just01:19:52
snatched that Kimura grip and then I01:19:55
like how he triangled his legs around01:19:57
the shoulder so there's no room and01:19:59
basically pulled the arm right over the01:20:01
hip socket to hit the lock that's a01:20:04
really slick uh submission entry really01:20:07
a lot of times people would have01:20:09
switched the grip to go for a01:20:11
traditional arm bar from spider webs but01:20:13
uh that was a slick version on uh by01:20:16
isolating that shoulder with that01:20:18
triangle right there that's really nice01:20:20
Gordon Ryan had to work a lot more than01:20:22
many may have expected in this first01:20:24
round matchup but he only works just a01:20:26
minute in his quarterfinal matchup he is01:20:28
on his way to the semifinals Gordon Ryan01:20:30
looks to keep his crown here tonight in01:20:32

like of helenberg and he's got the head01:21:34
too there's not oh no he lost control of01:21:36
the head01:21:38
trying to shove it in for a DARS maybe01:21:40
but lost that position01:21:45
saw the promo a moment ago we kicked off01:21:48
2018 in Burbank featherweight Stake01:21:51
Center Stage01:21:52
Eddie Cummings looking to defend his01:21:54

from him the bantamweight champion Gio01:21:59
Martinez in that tournament01:22:01
all right01:22:03
those two gentlemen met one year ago01:22:05
today at ebi 10.01:22:07
yeah they're supposed to have a rematch01:22:09
soon but that ended up not materializing01:22:13
recently get a reset here back in the01:22:16
center of the mat01:22:22
the 310 pounder Jesse Ray children's on01:22:25
top of Casey helenberg01:22:28
I like the way just just right is01:22:30
keeping weight01:22:31
keeping a head position and he keeps01:22:34
moving forward trying to you know uh01:22:36
make a little extra work for his pawner01:22:39
Jill Ray with the impressive victory01:22:41
over Adam sacknoff in the opening rounds01:22:44
of this tournament bit of an upset there01:22:46
he looks too01:22:47
further that story here tonight01:22:50
helenberg now sitting up trying to get a01:22:53
hold of that neck01:22:58
helenberg got past Karen darabedian01:23:09
chill Ray got up and turned his back and01:23:12
you know didn't have a lot of urgency to01:23:15
turn back around helenberg could have01:23:16
tried to take advantage of that but01:23:20
something to sort of keep your eye on it01:23:22
he's got a Russian grip around two on01:23:24
one you do that uh zangiefroll but now01:23:27
he loses it01:23:33
oh try to set up a01:23:35
leg pick with that01:23:44
I mentioned ebi 15 coming your way from01:23:46
Muscle Farm HQ in Burbank California if01:23:49
you have a place that would like to host01:23:50
the yeti Bravo Invitational get at us on01:23:52
Twitter Eddie Bravo Eddie Bravo 1001:23:57
love to take this thing all over the01:23:58
world world domination the submission01:24:00
only movement here at evi01:24:07
these two heavyweights on their feet01:24:09
jockeying four position01:24:21
yeah turn into a bit of a Greco-Roman01:24:23
match here right now with the over under01:24:25
and the Pummel and the head position all01:24:28
right01:24:31
nothing there01:24:38
Whoever has the dynamic level change01:24:41
first so get the better of this exchange01:24:42
right now they're really really upstairs01:24:48
now Casey's got the better head01:24:50
positioning and I shot around yeah he's01:24:53
got that pressure from the show he's01:24:54
trying to roll around all the way around01:24:56
Jesse Ray's back but it's a broad back01:25:05
trying to find the right angle there01:25:08
flare out to the outside maybe hit a01:25:10
double leg Flare from the side01:25:13
really an interesting uh wrestling match01:25:16
here I mean it's not the most active at01:25:18
least it's technical it's it's very01:25:20
interesting to see how hellenberg tries01:25:21
to get Jesse right down01:25:24
yeah and this is a great example of like01:25:26
how like size like on bigger guys can01:25:29
really change there's a wide range of01:25:31
body type a bigger range of body types01:25:33
in this weight in an absolute than01:25:35
anything else and sometimes you just01:25:37
can't wrap around the bigger guys01:25:38
hillenberg nicely now on the back if01:25:41
Jesse right through here both hooks in01:25:43
got a plastic snap down head and arm01:25:45
right to the back great work by Casey a01:25:48
lot of time although he's missing the01:25:50
bottom Hook and the bottom Hook is the01:25:52
hard hook to get in the transition to an01:25:54
arm triangle and full amount which is01:25:55
one of the best things you can do once01:25:57
losing that bottom hook01:26:02
all right I'm stuck in half now he loses01:26:05
the grip goes back to half guard01:26:07
voluntarily I don't know if he's trying01:26:08
to go side mount back on the other side01:26:10
yeah hold on01:26:15
halfway point of Regulation01:26:18
just to raise one of those guys and01:26:20
maybe Casey's actually big enough to01:26:22
mount just just right but sometimes guys01:26:25
who have a uh let's say substantial mid01:26:28
portion uh like sometimes your knees01:26:31
don't hit the mat right you know you01:26:33
can't develop a really good base if uh01:26:35
they're too round the mound is an01:26:37
interesting position a lot of guys in01:26:39
MMA prefer to use half guard just as a01:26:42
control position because you know01:26:43
punching but here I mean really there's01:26:47
not a lot available maybe if you don't01:26:49
think that you can really secure that01:26:51
position so maybe not worth taking them01:26:52
on a certain opponents yeah it's01:26:54
definitely not as strong as pure sport01:26:56
Jiu Jitsu as it is in MMA because of the01:26:58
threat of striking exactly and also like01:26:59
in a ghee it's a lot easier like in a01:27:01
ghee amount it's kind of like death bow01:27:03
and arrow choke on the top yeah01:27:06
ezekiel's you know very hard to do no01:27:08
deposits mostly arm attacks and01:27:10
triangles is right arm here getting01:27:14
attacked by children01:27:18
you're out he's now readjusting maybe01:27:19
gonna go for an arm bar arm bar01:27:22
really taking his time is hellenberg01:27:24
securing that hook a bit now get the leg01:27:26
over01:27:27
he's gonna sit back and try to break the01:27:29
grip on the pullback but he's got the01:27:31
leg over the face in a great position01:27:32
he's in spiderweb01:27:35
children not panicking not01:27:38
getting desperate and giving up anything01:27:40
looking for that now Jester Ray should01:27:43
roll up to his knees01:27:44
so he can stack Casey01:27:49
right now he's that right arm is taking01:27:51
a lot of blood01:27:53
a lot of pressure on that arm he's slow01:27:55
cooking it there it is01:28:04
[Applause]01:28:05
the arm bar moving on to the semifinals01:28:09
where he will meet Gordon Ryan01:28:15
unbelievable nicely done01:28:18
by Casey hellenberg let's make it01:28:20
official01:28:23
[Applause]01:28:29
bar let's hear it for Casey helenberg01:28:32
[Applause]01:28:37
helenberg very methodical he gets what01:28:40
he wants a submission moving on to the01:28:44
semifinals cappella walk us through this01:28:47
slow cooked arm bar they had a great01:28:49

for a second yes kind of01:30:27
Johnson now trying to attack the right01:30:29
leg of Kimler he's going for ankle locks01:30:33
it's got a deep grip on that I think01:30:34
he's using that just to keep the knee in01:30:36
line for the heel yeah but I I think he01:30:39
likes ankle locks01:30:41
because he's got that angle there's a01:30:43
hip going in yeah01:30:44
but he's kind of he's bit on the couch01:30:47
no you're fine even mid-range you can01:30:48
break it there because of the bend01:30:50
like he's trying it's it's a different01:30:52
style yeah dimler gets free now trying01:30:55

Scott walk us through the end of this01:33:00
match alright so he gets this sweep he01:33:02
comes up on top and just spins around01:33:04
for a short arm bar see how he's got the01:33:06
foot right on the inside of uh01:33:09
you guys lats to help push off with it01:33:12
look he's still got one leg and he's01:33:15
driving over and he's already got the01:33:16
arm isolated with that shoulder hook he01:33:19
spins around puts his right leg right on01:33:22
the lats and then drops back with the01:33:24
left leg on top of its body to push him01:33:26
back down and just speed arm bar01:33:29
I think I couldn't possibly escaped with01:33:32
a corkscrew attempt because he didn't01:33:33
have control the opposite shoulder but01:33:35
that's why speed attempts work you know01:33:38
you hit him fast there before the other01:33:40
guy has time to react and there you go01:33:42
Aaron Tex Johnson speeding his way to01:33:44

gets knee control has a hill hook has01:36:01
the knee isolated arches into the knee01:36:04

little twist the boom uh hopefully it01:36:09
comes doesn't even have the legs laced01:36:11
together just wanted to point that out01:36:13
real quick he would just Dove on that it01:36:15
was all grip on the hill01:36:18
Craig Jones continue that's nice that01:36:21
switch over to the other leg but not01:36:23
even that tight his legs are still kind01:36:25
of spread out no I think it's because01:36:27
he's got the weight dropped down on the01:36:29
toes with the real controlling reactor01:36:31

representing Brunswick Brazilian Jiu01:37:43
Jitsu he is the reigning and defending01:37:45
absolute Champion the king Gordon Ryan01:37:54

of Jiu Jitsu Casey helenberg01:38:01
[Applause] [Music]01:38:07
ready ready let's do it01:38:10
our first semi-final of the evening01:38:13
Gordon the king Ryan defending his01:38:15
absolute Crown he meets Casey hellenberg01:38:20
I'm dragged01:38:22
gets the party going already01:38:28
maybe looking for that base switch pass01:38:30
we saw at 80cc against homelo01:38:35
yep there it is01:38:37
all the way to the back yeah01:38:41
even if helenberg knew it was coming01:38:42
nothing he could really do about it01:38:44
Gordon Ryan when he's on he is on01:38:46
ellenberger's trying to was trying to01:38:48
chase a possible knee bar attempt but01:38:50
got01:38:52
basically gave up his back01:39:00
that's dangerous putting the arms down01:39:04
got a triangle coming in hellenberg01:39:06
really trying to stop that body triangle01:39:08
he's been able to stifle it thus far01:39:16
Ryan now gets it on the other side01:39:23
now the thing about the body triangle is01:39:26
not only does it help keep control it01:39:27
also sucks a lot of energy out of your01:39:29
opponent because you're right there on01:39:31
the diaphragm or you could be and that01:39:35
squeeze it also generates a lot of01:39:37
pressure on the uh defending parties uh01:39:41
back sometimes you can actually just01:39:44
catch somebody with a back crank if you01:39:46
can get the proper angle on their head01:39:47
and push your hips in when you've got a01:39:49
good body triangle in there01:39:50
Jordan Ryan definitely has a strong body01:39:52
track01:39:56
I'm joking I was coming across and I was01:39:58
getting deeper with that hand01:40:00
now across the face on that lower jaw01:40:03
yep starting to ratchet it through oh he01:40:05
got the space you need to turn but I01:40:08
think he went back in yeah he's almost01:40:10
there he wants to get that right hand01:40:11
over and lock in the rear naked choke01:40:14
it just needs to zip tie just a few01:40:16
another inch or two in case he does a01:40:18
good job of fending that off01:40:20
and trying to Pivot his head to get it01:40:22
to the ground if your head's on the01:40:24
ground you're basically safe from that01:40:26
particular chip01:40:28
Gordon Ryan the three-time ebi champion01:40:32
defending his absolute crown for the01:40:34
first time tonight 14-0 in his ebi run01:40:38
every fight has ended via submission two01:40:41
have gone to overtime but he was able to01:40:43
submit his opponents01:40:45
he's already banked seventy thousand01:40:47
five hundred dollars just himself Gordon01:40:49
Ryan has spent that much money01:40:51
professional Jiu Jitsu is a real thing a01:40:53
lucrative thing for these to her death01:40:55
squad guys01:41:00
I like the way Gordon's using the01:41:02
shoulder hooks a lot to help keep01:41:04
control of the back even even when he uh01:41:07
sometimes loses the hooks it might just01:41:10
happened and it looks like he's trying01:41:12
to set up a reverse triangle maybe or01:41:14
switch back to another one of those uh01:41:16
Spider Web arm bars yeah it is yeah that01:41:19
hook that that hook on the shoulder01:41:21
definitely gets him back into position01:41:22
for that arm bar if he wants helenberg01:41:24
able to get his head inside but not out01:41:26
of danger by any means01:41:32
yeah that arm's in deep Jeopardy might01:41:35
be a little triangle coming in here too01:41:37
and then an attack on the arm on top of01:41:39
that01:41:41
yep that left01:41:44
yeah it does look like he's trying to01:41:45
slip that through especially there it is01:41:47
yep01:41:50
it's like yeah two arms it's just a01:41:51
really high back mount01:41:54
wow01:41:55

holiday exclusives at nuwanzaperel.com01:42:07
you gotta spin fast try to scrape them01:42:10
off save hellenberg can induce a01:42:12
scramble here Ryan has lost that left01:42:14
hook now he abandons the right goes in01:42:17
for a single01:42:19
might have been a good time just to bail01:42:20
and get a reset at that point and just01:42:22
get some distance01:42:26
you look at the Run of Gordon Ryan here01:42:28
at ebi he's always been in control he's01:42:30
the one that is always dictating the01:42:32
action even against bigger guys like01:42:34
Casey helenberg he's he's the one who01:42:36
dictates the pace in nearly every single01:42:38
one of his matches01:42:43
okay she's trying to peel the legs off01:42:45
uh and looks like he's trying to pull it01:42:48
in for the leg attack01:42:50
now getting defensive01:42:52
app but the knee line was clear very01:42:55
early01:42:56
see the composure of the 22 year old01:42:58
Champion Gordon Ryan01:43:06
halfway point here of Regulation that's01:43:09
the most defensive we've seen Gordon01:43:12
Ryan I think since his last overtime01:43:15
now he clears the side yep they switch01:43:18
pass01:43:32
case you're creating a frame to try to01:43:34
create some space he wants to try to get01:43:37
his one of his knees inside that hip01:43:39
line Maybe01:43:46
yep wow uh I thought he was going to try01:43:49
to pull that knee bar in but uh it01:43:52
didn't quite work out that way for him01:43:55
Gordon was flirting with that honey hoe01:43:58
position there for a second but Casey01:44:00
goes back to this turtle01:44:02
that's an interesting uh grip that he's01:44:05
trying to keep control of it looks like01:44:07
it's an awkward angle to try to roll01:44:09
them the01:44:15
see Ryan very recording pull that arm up01:44:18
a little bit maybe put it into a baby01:44:20
arm yeah I was just looking at that he01:44:22
has an arm bar there for him hellenberg01:44:24
trying to get on top maybe for a split01:44:26
second enjoys the top01:44:29
that's a butterfly01:44:31
good job by Casey defending up to this01:44:33
point a nice knee slice nicely slice01:44:36
controlling the head is the champion01:44:38
Gordon Ryan now attacking the right arm01:44:42
it looked like the other arm trap too01:44:44
with his legs possible crucifix01:44:49
helenberg now trying to stand trying to01:44:50
make something happen here01:44:56
same kind of thing he did to Keenan01:44:58
Cornelius in the end of the ACC01:45:08
foreign01:45:10
hellenberg trying to force the issue01:45:12
trying to make something happen but01:45:13
Gordon Ryan just seems to be one step01:45:15
ahead of him01:45:18
you see flashes of maybe progress for01:45:20
helenberg but Gordon able to shut it01:45:22
down instantly01:45:25
yeah Gordon's rolling rolling really01:45:27
heavy on on Casey like making Casey bear01:45:30
his weight and that's part of what01:45:31
allows them to stuff all of Casey's uh01:45:34
attempts to come up is he just drops01:45:36
that weight further down never lets him01:45:38
get his full power in any of the01:45:41
movements he's trying to make01:45:44
good morning01:45:55
teacher's Dan Scott Ross Eric Cruz we01:45:58
are Matt's side on it Academy in Austin01:46:01
Texas ebi 14 the absolute you just01:46:05
isolated01:46:07
um Gordon just isolated one of uh01:46:09
Casey's arms with his leg so it's like a01:46:13
two-on-one attack for a moment but he01:46:14
lost control of that01:46:19
don't forget we are on social media01:46:22
Instagram ebi official01:46:25
I'm at TJ DeSantis Eric Cruz is acapella01:46:28

Facebook get at us if you want ebi in01:46:37
your town you have an opportunity for01:46:39
the Eddie Bravo Invitational we'd love01:46:41
to come now Gordon Ryan isolates that01:46:44
right arm with his right leg now trying01:46:47
to attack the neck here01:46:50
trying to get Casey's chin up and he's01:46:53
doing it by pulling the head to the side01:46:55
and up also trying to use his thumb to01:46:58
elevate the chin and he's got a lot of01:47:00
attempts here has that it has one arm01:47:02
isolated so oh yes he has is the left01:47:04
arm to try to defend01:47:06
oh and that that's tough when somebody01:47:08
Strong's like driving their thumb01:47:09
straight into your throat01:47:11
[Music]01:47:12
and a little bit of chin strap action in01:47:14
there he just keeps working that neck01:47:16
trying to break Casey down mentally and01:47:19
physically01:47:21
Casey Ellenberg now trying to go out the01:47:23
back door gonna make sure he doesn't01:47:25
leave an arm exposed he's nicely done by01:47:28
hellenberg we'll see if we can secure01:47:29
this top position and get his game going01:47:31
he's got about 35 seconds remaining here01:47:33
in regulation01:47:37
it's been a little while since we've01:47:39
seen Gordon Ryan taken this far in an01:47:41
ebi match01:47:42
yeah great job by Casey so far staying01:47:44
uh fully aware of this emissions never01:47:46
was not really surprised by anything01:47:47
coming at him and Gordon methodically01:47:50
was switching to different options and01:47:52
nothing really panned out01:47:54
Gordon had a longer first match01:47:58
quick second match the semi-final match01:48:00
almost 10 minutes in the books here01:48:07
hi we are headed to overtime01:48:17
this is our first overtime since we've01:48:19
left the first round so now we have01:48:21
three overtimes01:48:24
see the overtime rules two possible01:48:26
positions spiderweb are the back two01:48:28
ways to win either submission or the01:48:30
fastest Escape time01:48:33
helenberg on the back of the champion01:48:38
Gordon Ryan has been to overtime two01:48:40
times before here at ebi he has won both01:48:43
of those overtimes via submission01:48:46
looks like he's breaking off the side01:48:48
here maybe trying to get an arm triangle01:48:49
position yep he's trying to come up01:48:53
very aggressive for helenberg that would01:48:56
have been disastrous if we were still in01:48:58
the format of only one overtime but he01:49:01
has the opportunity to be a bit more01:49:03
aggressive here but01:49:05
all that will go by the wayside Gordon01:49:07
Ryan gets a submission here in the01:49:09
bottom of the first overtime will be01:49:10
victorious01:49:14
the body triangle immediately put on by01:49:17
Gordon Ryan01:49:20
Ellenberg defending01:49:26
luckily Casey had experience in this01:49:28
position all throughout the match so he01:49:30
just kind of felt what it liked to uh to01:49:32
escape01:49:34
now now Gordon Gordon's foot is in some01:49:37
Jeopardy when that body triangle was01:49:39
down on the ground but Casey didn't01:49:41
attempt to hit that ankle lock at all01:49:45
so Gordon was fine just leaving it there01:49:47
until they moved out01:49:50
Gordon Ryan in deep on it now we see01:49:53
helenberg goes to stand says no sir01:49:56
that's a strong man still in a very01:49:59
dangerous spot01:50:04
helenberg cannot slam Gordon Ryan out of01:50:06
this01:50:07
[Applause]01:50:11
fourth straight ebi finals rear naked01:50:15
choke stoppage in overtime gets it done01:50:18
for the king let's make it official01:50:24
ladies and gentlemen we have a winner01:50:26
via submission in overtime he is the01:50:30
absolute Champion the king Gordon Ryan01:50:34
[Applause]01:50:39
Gordon Ryan doesn't get the submission01:50:41
in regulation so he does not Bank the01:50:43
money but that perfect ebi record of a01:50:46
submission in every match still intact01:50:49
15 wins 15 submissions this one in01:50:52
overtime walk us through the end capella01:50:54
the rear naked choke and just sinking in01:50:56
on that grip viewing that it had it01:50:58
fully locked up committed to counting01:50:59
down the squeeze and just like a trash01:51:01
compactor slowly increasing the pressure01:51:04
increasing the pressure of not letting01:51:05
up eventually Casey had to Cave into01:51:08
that pressure is there anything01:51:09
different that he has to do Eric because01:51:12
considering that they stood up with it01:51:14
does that change the way that he01:51:16
finished it for uh yeah I mean he's just01:51:20
committing to that squeeze there he's on01:51:22
the jaw it might have even turned a01:51:23
little bit into a neck crank because it01:51:25
seemed like Casey's head turns to the01:51:26
side a little bit but I think it's just01:51:28
the overall pressure of the choke coming01:51:30
in and uh once he turns his head it's01:51:32
that much deeper so yeah helenberg01:51:35
helpless Force to tap the king Gordon01:51:38

Johnson [Applause]01:52:21
and his opponent welcome back to the map01:52:23
from absolute MMA Craig Jones01:52:28
right01:52:32
who will meet Gordon Ryan in the finals01:52:34
we will find out it is Aaron tax Johnson01:52:37
taking on Craig Jones Craig Jones has01:52:40
only been on the map for about 4601:52:42
seconds coming into this one01:52:50
we have to look at the record books but01:52:52
he got to his first submission tonight01:52:53
in just 12 seconds which is dangerously01:52:56
close there's that answer to a record01:52:57
but he's dangerously close to getting01:52:59
submitted himself and Jones able to spin01:53:01
free01:53:02
you know it's interesting uh one of the01:53:04
differences between having been in there01:53:06
a long time is that uh Tex is uh wetter01:53:10
yeah uh and that can work to your01:53:13
advantage when you're trying to get out01:53:14
of stuff but it can be01:53:17
unbelievable that's about 40 seconds so01:53:20
he doubles his fight time01:53:23
but Craig Jones is on his way to the01:53:25
finals with less than 90 seconds of work01:53:28
Hamburger Surprise people he's just01:53:31
mastered that inside heel hook right now01:53:32
you know three in a row01:53:34
Craig Jones making big things happen01:53:38
will the Cinderella story continue when01:53:40
he takes on Gordon Ryan we will find out01:53:42
later but let's make this win efficient01:53:47
ladies and gentlemen we have a winner at01:53:50
38 seconds into regulation he is Craig01:53:55
Jones01:53:56
[Applause]01:54:02
nice sign of sportsmanship Craig Jones01:54:04
like don't drop me man I got one more01:54:06
fight left in there wow Craig Jones01:54:09
getting it done01:54:11
38 seconds capella walk us through this01:54:14
quick submission again all right it's01:54:16
got to be01:54:18
yeah he's got the inside heel he just01:54:20
shoots in man and just takes that heal01:54:22
it's really same thing he did in the01:54:23
last two matches just a little faster a01:54:26
little sneakier Craig Jones going to be01:54:27
the underdog in the finals but momentum01:54:31
would be an understatement this man01:54:34
he has something in his Corner tonight01:54:36
where you need to expect the unexpected01:54:38
and you're right Eric he's just01:54:39
basically just jumping right into that01:54:41
position01:54:42
it's a catch he's not even worried about01:54:45
locking the knees in or crossing the01:54:47
toes he's just getting a bite and going01:54:49
you know really an amazing night of01:54:51
action here in Austin and what would you01:54:54
expect can't expect anything less than01:54:56
Perfection for Gordon Ryan three matches01:54:58
three submissions his last one over01:55:00
Casey helenberg came by way of overtime01:55:04
but still a submission nonetheless01:55:06
Gordon Ryan in place to defend his crown01:55:09
standing in his way will be Craig Jones01:55:11
he's worked less than two minutes this01:55:15
entire evening he gets past Aaron01:55:17
Johnson in the semifinals and I say01:55:19
momentum is on the side of Craig Jones01:55:21
but his destiny01:55:24
in his immediate future we will find out01:55:27
as he meets Gordon Ryan coming up later01:55:29
in our main event of the evening our01:55:31

UFC Fight Pass01:56:56
this week we crowned the first ever01:56:58
flyweight champion in the UFC01:57:00
nice she goes right in with that in an01:57:04
Ari yep01:57:07
hi trying to pull trying to get that01:57:09
knee back in Laura did a great job01:57:11
getting the knee out though very01:57:13
responsive01:57:16
this lady's wasting no time going for it01:57:20
I had an arm on top01:57:27
now she's got Priscilla's got to be01:57:28
careful because her arm is a little01:57:30
isolated right there and that can be01:57:33
used to set up uh inverted arm bars01:57:36
she switches back to the uh forearm01:57:39
slide01:57:41
fixes are locked down up01:57:44
got a bit of an injury here yeah that's01:57:47
not the way anyone wanted this one to01:57:49
end yeah sometimes when the knee goes01:57:52
down and the heel goes up at the same01:57:54
time it can basically hurt the meniscus01:57:57
yeah yeah that was just from the01:57:59
lockdown and twisted into an electric01:58:00
chair Laura didn't turn with it and01:58:03
there was a01:58:04
a break there01:58:09
maybe we'll get a replay here this is01:58:11
definitely01:58:13
not what anyone wanted to see both of01:58:15
these Austin natives really wanted to01:58:17
put on a show here but I think we're01:58:19
going to get a look at it Eric walk us01:58:20
through what happens yeah so Priscilla01:58:22
has the electric chair and lockdown is01:58:24
up it's nice and high she whips it to01:58:27
the other way Laura's knees caught01:58:28
inside she's trying to turn but yeah her01:58:31
knee gets caught there01:58:33
uh almost like it got heel hook01:58:36
basically yeah I know that's what I was01:58:38
saying like that's what happens when the01:58:39
knee goes you can see it better from01:58:41
this angle here or his legs caught01:58:43
between and then it just oh yeah you see01:58:46
her her left knee get twisted and kind01:58:48
of gets stuck on the mat actually the uh01:58:50
her bottom instead got stuck on the mat01:58:52
as they were turning if she was able to01:58:54
clear it and go with it she would have01:58:55
been all right but uh her foot got stuck01:58:57
and then there was too much torque on01:58:59
the knee01:59:00
unfortunately01:59:06
nice sign of sportsmanship here01:59:10
not the way that Priscilla Herrera01:59:13
wanted to win this one but a win01:59:14
nonetheless let's make it official01:59:18
ladies and gentlemen we have a stoppage01:59:20
due to an injury01:59:22
it is a win nonetheless let's hear it01:59:24
for Priscilla Herrera01:59:31
let's also put your hands together for a01:59:33
valiant effort for Laura Heim01:59:40
yeah that's unfortunate unfortunate but01:59:42
also effective it is a technique that01:59:44
that you know when you stop your01:59:46
opponent it's it is effective and uh for01:59:48
Priscilla Herrera she gets it done01:59:53
[Music]01:59:55

[Music] [Applause]02:00:25
[Music]02:00:27
welcome back from absolute MMA he is the02:00:30
Challenger Craig Jones02:00:36
thank you02:00:39
and his opponent he is the reigning and02:00:43
defending absolute Champion the 80cc02:00:47
gold medalist for 2017. it is the king02:00:50
Gordon Ryan02:00:51
[Applause]02:01:03
the final is upon us Gordon Ryan stands02:01:06
over Craig Jones02:01:08
Jones has made quick work of the field02:01:11
and it would be something if he could02:01:13
get past Gordon Ryan02:01:15
same entry he's been used in the earlier02:01:17
matches02:01:19
see how much mileage you can get out at02:01:21
this time he wasn't able to get that02:01:23
knee line that he wanted02:01:30
good Ace of Base by Craig Jones02:01:37
and Jones is really I mean he's done02:01:39
more work in the back warming up than he02:01:41
has out here getting to this point02:01:47
I mean obviously for his energy level02:01:48
it's got to be great confidence even02:01:51
even bigger I mean you you need to be02:01:53
perfect if you're going to get past02:01:54
Gordon Ryan and Craig Jones has been02:01:56
just that02:02:03
yeah well it's got to help him that he's02:02:05
so well uh so fresh you know he hasn't02:02:08
spent much of his energy throughout the02:02:10
night and that's definitely going to02:02:11
help but Gordon uh you know has been02:02:13
relatively quick himself he did get02:02:16
pushed02:02:17
towards the end of one of his matches02:02:19
but you know he hasn't been in Moors all02:02:21
night yeah going into the oversign with02:02:23
Casey the overtime with Casey during the02:02:26
little energy came a little bit of a02:02:28
sweat definitely more more than Craig02:02:30
has spent all night in the match with02:02:32
Helen Berg I mean regulation and over02:02:34
time Gordon was in control from the02:02:37
moment ago02:02:38
he did have a longer match in his first02:02:41
bout with Dan borovic I think going into02:02:43
the nine minute Mark but yeah02:02:45
it's more just quantity of time work and02:02:48
not necessarily effort that is really02:02:51
been drawn out of Gordon Ryan he's been02:02:53
has been pushed yeah really yeah he's02:02:56
been dominating his matches so he's been02:02:58
the other guy's been carrying his way02:02:59
he's like squeezing body triangles and02:03:02
going for Subs which can Tire you out a02:03:04
little bit but ultimately you get that02:03:06
reset in between matches he should be02:03:07
good as far as lactic acid build up his02:03:09
muscles and whatnot this is a rematch as02:03:12
well these two met at ebi 11 to kick02:03:15
this year off and we finished the year02:03:18
with uh they see back on the mountain oh02:03:22
John's going for it I mean that02:03:24
everybody went over that was a pretty02:03:27
armor to a triangle trying02:03:30
you know things have a way playing out02:03:32
in Combat Sports that everything feels02:03:35
serendipitous and this is one of those02:03:37
matches I mean you're talking about two02:03:39
guys that have had career years Gordon02:03:42
Ryan captures the 80cc gold has really02:03:45
broken out here on the ebi stage and now02:03:49
you know Craig Jones who made a name for02:03:51
himself at ebi 11 had a solid Abu Dhabi02:03:54
as well uh you couldn't write a better02:03:56
end I think to the year having these02:03:58
guys meet up in the finals yeah that's02:04:00
gonna be a great match I mean they had02:04:02
this match earlier at ADCC and Ryan02:04:04
ended up coming up on top but I think02:04:06
Craig is very aware of what court02:04:09
coordinates capable of and I was doing a02:04:11
good job of asserting his game plan of02:04:13
course none of this would be possible02:04:14
without our sponsor Studio 540 proud02:04:17
sponsor of the Eddie Bravo Invitational02:04:20
visit them02:04:21
Studio 540.02:04:40
yeah they're both leg pummeling right02:04:42
now both of them are looking for the02:04:45
hill hook02:04:48
jocking for position trying to get a leg02:04:50
isolated02:04:53
put inside02:04:54
you got a thick deep grip on the left02:04:57
ankle Ryan02:05:14
Jones and on that white leg really02:05:17
selling out for it trying to make02:05:19
something happen but Ryan wise to it02:05:25
about the action02:05:27
so far it's uh Craig Jones setting the02:05:30
pace for this match the gardens had to02:05:32
defend two legitimate attacks02:05:35
this is our final match of 2017. don't02:05:38
forget ebi back in Action 2018 the02:05:41
featherweights take Center Stage02:05:42
February 17th Muscle Farm HQ in02:05:45
beautiful Burbank California02:05:49
more info at ebi official.com02:05:56
halfway point here of Regulation Gordon02:05:59
Ryan the champion goes flying02:06:02
Jones wise to it he stands02:06:08
we mentioned it was a year ago today02:06:11
that Gio Martinez defeated Eddie02:06:13
Cummings down in Mexico City can02:06:15
lightning strike twice can we see a Dana02:06:16
her death squad member upset two years02:06:19
in a row to cap the year off02:06:22
like I said momentum on the side of02:06:24
Craig Jones but tonight02:06:26
it's hard to say that this hasn't been02:06:27
his Destiny to be at this point with02:06:30
this man02:06:34
I know Craig was definitely looking02:06:35
forward to the possibility of a rematch02:06:37
you know nobody likes to take a loss02:06:40
nobody at this level likes a loss and02:06:42
you always would like to redeem it so02:06:44
that gives a little bit of extra02:06:47
gratitude on Craig's part if he uh can02:06:51
pull it off02:06:52
and talk about the rematch factor I mean02:06:54
what is it like for both of these guys02:06:56
like02:06:57
obviously they're familiar with one02:06:59
another but how much can you take02:07:01
tactically into a rematch when you've02:07:03
you've spent some time on the map yeah02:07:04
with guys this high level I think the02:07:07
takeaway is huge because there's only so02:07:09
many things that you feel different from02:07:12
one opponent to the next you pretty much02:07:13
play your game I mean tonight Craig02:07:14
Jones has just came in and the first two02:07:16
things he wanted to get he went and got02:07:18
it you know with working with Gordon02:07:20
Brian short of uh you know get losing02:07:23
position and getting caught with the sub02:07:24
at ADCC you know just up to that point02:07:26
he was doing well so he just he02:07:27
understands that there's a moment he02:07:30
needs to avoid and then work around that02:07:33
and I think with that Knowledge from the02:07:35
previous match he's able to get a lot02:07:37
further this time around02:07:40
Jones able to get free disengages02:07:46
Ryan can tend to play a bottom game with02:07:48
Jones which is something that he really02:07:49
hasn't done much of this night he's been02:07:52
the one that's been in top control and02:07:54
really dictating the pace he's not02:07:56
necessarily purely defensive by any02:07:59
means but he's he's more malleable in02:08:01
his approach here with Jones02:08:03
yeah probably got a little wrist slot02:08:05
going there for a second02:08:07
he was interesting a lot of Gordon's02:08:08
opponents tonight at some point they02:08:10
would actually sit down and try to pull02:08:12
leg locks on pull him into a leglock02:08:14
battle which uh is interesting02:08:19
um and yeah this is the first night the02:08:21
first time we've really seen Gordon02:08:23
really going for the legs himself to02:08:27
keep to your space keep two years I'm02:08:29
gonna explain the Z guard yes02:08:36
yes yep get some elevation and go02:08:39
underneath there02:08:42
Gordon very Savvy keeping that left leg02:08:44
bent not allowing any gaps between his02:08:47
thigh and calf02:08:52
wow this match has gone fast to me02:08:55
it's been interesting the whole time02:08:57
yeah very respectful audience tonight02:09:05
yes just one of those matches where it02:09:07
can change really quickly really fast02:09:09
and every every second counts02:09:11
this match has gone by quickly for you02:09:13
Scott it's been an eternity for Craig02:09:15
Jones compared to his other performances02:09:16
here tonight yeah02:09:22
sometimes plan a doesn't work out02:09:27
but if we go to overtime here if this02:09:28
goes another 90 seconds I mean that's02:09:30
when cardio really May pay dividends for02:09:32
Craig Jones but right now it needs to be02:09:34
defensive Laura Gordon has a Kimura up02:09:36
top slipped into it oh Jones able to get02:09:38
free nice bit of action here02:09:42
thank you02:09:44
foreign02:09:46
gotta thank all of our sponsors once02:09:48

back to that z-guard approach for Craig02:10:02
Jones02:10:03
less than a minute remains here in02:10:05
regulation02:10:11
yeah Danny procopo is calling out the uh02:10:14
Kimora attempt Gordon Ryan02:10:17
it's like instead of playing head and02:10:19
feet he's playing arms and feet uh with02:10:21
the idea that Craig to avoid the Kimura02:10:24
might straighten his body out making it02:10:26
easier to attack the legs02:10:29
turns back up nice grip02:10:37
20 seconds remains in regulation02:10:49
oh02:10:59
my God02:11:02
Gordon Ryan02:11:04
headed into his fourth overtime of his02:11:09
ebi career all of his overtime matches02:11:11
have ended in submission02:11:14
we'll see if he can keep that perfect02:11:15
finish rate and record intact02:11:20
coin flip looks like Gordon Ryan is02:11:23
deferring to Craig Jones Jones is going02:11:25
to go on offense first and he likes to02:11:28
take the back of the king02:11:31
it's something you've seen all night too02:11:33
Gordon Ryan02:11:35
he likes to be uh on defense first he02:11:39
likes to have that uh I think bar set so02:11:41
he knows exactly what he needs to do02:11:47
oh Christ's got the body triangle in oh02:11:49
I had to switch it02:11:51
still doing a great job of keeping the02:11:53
bottom hook engaged02:11:54
[Applause]02:12:03
by the champion Gordon Ryan02:12:06
good time so far02:12:09
bottom of the first overtime now with02:12:11
Gordon Ryan is able to pull off a02:12:13
submission it's a wrap it'll be a02:12:16
four-time ebi champion successfully02:12:18
defending his absolute crown02:12:21
body triangle here for the king02:12:25
yeah he slips that in automatically and02:12:27
he gets so much power and control out of02:12:29
it02:12:30
especially when you're talking about02:12:32
Escape times it's such a great opening02:12:35
move02:12:36
yeah it's tough that those those big02:12:38
legs around you like that02:12:40
um everybody's had a really tough time02:12:41
getting out of his body triangle your02:12:44
naked choke is almost sunk in there02:12:47
[Applause]02:12:50
staying composed able to weather the02:12:52
storm02:12:54
as well02:12:59
Gary tonan has made a career of02:13:01
submitting guys in overtime from the02:13:04
back Gordon Ryan no stranger to that02:13:06
himself he's dating her that Squad guy02:13:08
seemed to have a game plan that they02:13:11
put in to play and do so quite perfectly02:13:26
this your final of ebi 14 the champion02:13:29
Gordon the king Ryan on the back of02:13:31
Craig Jones TJ to Santa Sarah Cruz Scott02:13:34
Ross on it Academy Austin Texas02:13:37
side02:13:39
I'm just giving up a lot of time so far02:13:41
yeah02:13:44
Craig does need to be defensive here02:13:46
because if he gets over zealous and is02:13:48
submitted it's over it's a wrap and02:13:50
better to give up time than playing02:13:52
perfect exactly or his neck and the02:13:54
trouble here too with trying to uh02:13:56
scramble out and turn is a good chance02:13:58
of getting a rib injury too because the02:13:59
body lock is in and you turn one way02:14:01
your rib cage is facing another you got02:14:03
to be careful02:14:05
Ryan now trying to get that left arm02:14:07
underneath the chin once again02:14:13
we wanted to keep his head on the mat02:14:15
and try to turn perpendicular Jones now02:14:19
trying to reach up and grab the head of02:14:21
Ryan is that to break the posture02:14:25
it's just to keep him from from sinking02:14:27
any choking arms in helps to prevent the02:14:30
penetration of the arm under the throat02:14:33
it's been working for several02:14:35
competitors actually throughout the02:14:36
night let's walk to the left and block02:14:39
the left leg02:14:45
[Applause]02:14:58
because of that we are headed to the top02:15:01
of the second overtime02:15:03
Jones stays on his02:15:06
approach of taking the back of Ryan yeah02:15:09
he told me this morning uh I was talking02:15:11
to him before the tournament started and02:15:13
he said he'll only take the back because02:15:15
some people let you break their arm so02:15:17
they can escape02:15:19
I remember Kyle Griffin oh he pulled it02:15:23
back in02:15:28
[Applause]02:15:32
here02:15:35
[Applause]02:15:42
and that's exactly what he said would02:15:45
happen but the question is02:15:47
[Applause]02:15:54
starting spider web now and try to02:15:56
capitalize him02:15:58
worldwide02:16:01
[Applause]02:16:05
[Music]02:16:06
[Applause]02:16:15
now he's got to split the room in half02:16:17
left side right side02:16:19
bottom of the second overtime02:16:23
this went through literal hell with his02:16:26
arm02:16:27
we talk about the injury can he maintain02:16:31
control is that arm damage enough to02:16:32
where he won't enjoy the same sort of02:16:34
strength that he had in the bottom of02:16:36
the first overtime yeah Craig Jones went02:16:38
through about three different variations02:16:39
on trying to finish that arm I mean had02:16:41
it fully locked out I'm sure there was02:16:42
at least a cop or two maybe three but uh02:16:44
Gordon and Ryan knows hey that's just02:16:46
one arm I got another arm two legs in my02:16:48
neck I'm still here and he's got a02:16:51
significant lead in terms of uh Escape02:16:54
time02:16:56
I mean really for Craig Jones it's all02:16:57
going to come down to that third02:16:59
overtime if he gets there02:17:01
but still Gordon Ryan very dangerous02:17:08
wrist luck you know I'm trying to look02:17:10
at the face here of Gordon Ryan too to02:17:11
see where he's at mentally and his eyes02:17:13
cold he looks just like he normally does02:17:17
be interesting if Craig could pull a02:17:19
submission from this position02:17:21
of course that would be an escape though02:17:24
yeah02:17:26
taking advantage of the already damaged02:17:29
arm02:17:37
foreign02:17:43
is injured maybe he doesn't sell out for02:17:47
a submission maybe he just holds on as02:17:49
long as he can and win that way02:17:52
yeah that that could be the option you02:17:55
know it's actually a lot more02:17:56
conservative it's easier to just hold02:17:58
somebody than to try to finish them we02:18:00
talk about the game plan and strategy of02:18:02
the day in her Death Squad game plans02:18:03
and strategy is great but what Champions02:18:05
are made of is adjusting02:18:07
all right Craig's having fun the whole02:18:09
time he's laughing02:18:12
oh Ryan in on that choke that's deep yep02:18:15
there it is02:18:16
[Applause]02:18:24

[Music] [Applause]02:19:12

and there you go at the end uh02:19:17
there was that nice arm bar attempt02:19:20
where uh Craig almost pulled it off it02:19:23
was tight and he's trying to pull it02:19:25
over his hip to get the lock but Gordon02:19:27
rotates his uh wrist but then that was a02:19:30
great job that Craig Jones did chasing02:19:32
it and Gordon had to have taken some02:19:34
damage in there yeah he's wincing02:19:36
definitely yeah good wrist control he02:19:39
just did not want to he just did not02:19:41
want to tap yeah there it goes a little02:19:42
more02:19:43
finally wolf gets through the corkscrew02:19:47
oh nice and then when it was his turn02:19:50
