Gordon Ryan won his second ADCC Superfight of the weekend on Sunday, dominating Yuri Simoes en route to a 21-0 victory on points.
This was a much better performance from Ryan, who went to overtime against Felipe Pena in Saturday’s Superfight, eeking out a 2-0 win off a close scramble (see video highlights here). Against Simoes, Gordo racked up points by improving position, going from mount back to half-guard repeatedly.
There was a fair amount of action on this one, with Ryan attacking Simoes’ arm repeatedly during the bout. Simoes finished the fight trying to force a tap from an ankle lock, but it’s unclear if he’d have been able to get it even if the clock didn’t run out.

For now it really seems like the biggest opponent for Ryan is his own body, which continues to force him out of competition for lengthy stretches. Check out the highlights from Ryan’s victory over Simoes below:
