The Greatest ADCC Champion of All Time
ADCC has always resisted the idea of an athlete being allowed to do both weight category and Super Fight. There was genuine concern here that he may have completely overstepped himself. The biggest concern I had as a coach, and I'm sure the organizers, Mo Jezem, must have had the same concern so he would get injured or exhausted fighting in his weight division. So our concern was how do we manage this? We looked for extremely efficient methods of reducing the time of the matches, making the matches as short as possible. Our favorite way is to fight biggest stronger athletes, and I think Gordon was the lightest athlete in his weight Division.
