Okay.
This is a match that's going to be 20 minutes long and potentially 40 minutes long.
Okay.
Andre Gaumont cannot win by submission.
Gordon's submission dominance here is just too great.
It would be exceedingly difficult for him to win on the ground.
Gordon's ground positional game is just too advanced.
And so for Andre Galvan, he had to win.
If he was going to win, it was going to be in a standing wrestling exchange where most people assessed him as having a measure of superiority over Gordon Ryan.
The problem is that it's hard to just keep a potentially 40-minute match on the ground, sorry, off the ground that whole time.
It's very, very difficult indeed.
So he would have had to fight literally the perfect tactical match to make it happen.
And he would have to do it without getting called for stalling points.
Gordon has the luxury that if at any point they go to the ground, he has...
complete dominance, but Gordon too has a problem that he can't pull guard without being penalized.
And if Andre Galvan can play this tactical game of forcing Gordon to pull guard and then staying at a distance where he's doing enough action not to get called for stalling, but not so much to engage with the dangerous Gordon Ryan on the ground, then it's feasible he could have won.
but it would have been, as I said, it would have required the most perfect application and integration of technique and tactics that he's capable of.
Yeah.
I can't speak for Andre, but I know for Gordon, it's hard to be intimidated when you know the other guy has no method of finishing you.
It just takes so much pressure off.
