Who’s Number One: Gordon Ryan Submits Jacob Couch with Pressure

Gordon Ryan has made his long-awaited return to competition on March 25; against Daisy Fresh’s Jacob Couch, at a Who’s Number One main event!

Jacob Couch is a spectacular grappler – he left no room for doubt in regards to that against almost anyone he has ever competed against. But this time, it was different.
Ryan dominated Couch for the entirety of the match. Of course, the obvious size advantage did give Ryan an upper hand… But he was also extremely precise with his technique and pressure for the entire 10 minutes of the match. Some would say that his technique was better than ever.

In the end, Gordon tapped out Couch with top pressure, which he utilized from S-Mount. Watch his patient, suffocating setup below:

Gordon Ryan has developed a sort of a “ritual” to hand over an envelope before the match, in which he’d usually predict which submission he’d hit.
This time, he handed over the envelope as well:
