Gordon and Andre Galvao got into it backstage

I couldn't care less if they beat each other out or not, I personally think it's generally stupid to search for fights or escalate, but Galvao kept follow him and act tough, it just looks kinda funny that in all this chaos he raised himself, this enormous roided brazilian took the slap (two of them now that I noticed) and did nothing.

I mean good for him and for his self control.. but it still looks like something out of a sit com..
 
I don't know, some of these BJJ fans and sport grappling fans in general are just insane in the way they totally despise athletes with rivalries or grudges against the people they favor. It seems like Team Renzo supporters, for example, really, truly hate Galvao, while of course, you have people truly, deeply hate Ryan. It seems to really go beyond the semi-good natured sporting rivalries of other sports, where cheering for or against the people you favor is part of the fun and excitement.

I feel like some of these guys would find any excuse to disparage and crap on Galvao, regardless.
yup.

i just ifnd it hilarious that some internet twats want to wave their dicks around about how galvao "should've done something". done what? started throwing? taken him down? had gabi tear gordon apart limb for limb and eat him?

after reading about galvao's refusal to shake hands and flipping him off, i care even less about the slap. but a bunch of little shits on an internet board calling him a bitch has to be the most pathetically cringe shit i've seen here.

I really, really want to agree with you, because it sums up how I feel. I just can't condone being the bigger man when you're an active fighter as well and someone put hands on you in that capacity. Galvao should have just kicked him straight in the dick honestly - cheap shot for a cheap shot.

I'm not calling him a 'bitch' or anything, but seeing Galvao do nothing is a bad look. I do understand detesting revenge fantasy porn; it's contrived and often reeks of desperation.

yeah i think it's a perfectly natural reaction to want to escalate when someone slaps you. not only is it a strike, it's also demeaning.

but you put it a lot more eloquently than i could, all this "i would never have taken that" horseshit is contrived and desperate.
 
and what exactly should he have done? started a brawl? i keep seeing these posts calling galvao a bitch, and i wonder how old you people are.

if gordon ryan wants to fight, he should fight. i'm sure he'll have no trouble signing with bellator or ONE. hell, if he wants to start stupid street brawls, i'm sure there are plenty of fighters who will happily oblige him. go and slap the shit out of yoel romero, then tell us how that worked out.

but he doesn't really seem interested in fighting other people who want to fight. slapping a 38 years old, retired andre galvao... and people have the audacity to call galvao a bitch, lol.


Punching someone in the face in response to them slapping you in the face is the perfectly rational response.

Not doing so would betray suboptimal social intelligence.

i'm more annoyed by the internet observers who want to project their masculinity through some fantasy scenario in which they would retaliate, swiftly and with style.

I get what you’re saying but I personally know guys who wouid have slapped Gordon back , kicked him in balls or punched him and theyre not trained fighters . Just bar fighter types ..I too wouId have punched Gordon 100 . I’ve been pushed in face by way bigger Stronger dude . I punched him in the fucking nose and it got broken up . I prob would have honestly lost the fight . But I did it . You act like its out of the realm of possibility for someone on sherdog to not be a bitch ass and take two slaps . There’s people on here who actually train, me included . Can I whip Gordon’s ass in gi , no gi, mma or street fighting ?! NO. But I guarantee you on all my family’s life I would have hit him back or kicked his balls . Can still throw a sneaky front kick from TKD. That’s a fucking fact. I’ll take an ass whipping . WouIdnt be first .

I thought just yelling "no respect" was the thing to do...

Oh no.

No way. This is not staged.

Galvao just destroyed his whole legacy and took Atos down with him.

I can see lot of Atos affiliates bailing out as Galvao and Atos is no longer suitable for them.

I think it’s all dumb . Shit talking on social media . Gordon being an asshole . Galvao being asshole . Galvao taking two slaps but not getting in any licks . I like Galvao too and can’t stand Gordon , though I admit he’s the best no gi guy around .

i'm sure this board is filled with blue belts who will claim they'd start throwing hands the first instant gordon got into their face. i'm sure a lot of people would, in fact, throw something back. i think it's natural to lose your shit when you get slapped.

what is fucking laughable is that anyone here calls andre galvao a bitch. the guy who won the mundials several times, who took double gold in ADCC, who's fought in DREAM and strikeforce. that guy is a bitch for not getting drawn into a backstage brawl at 38, after getting slapped out of the blue by some roid raging douche.

what i'm seeing here is an adult showing some restraint and adolescent boys writing out their fantasies of scorched earth retaliation. it's cringe-inducing.

and for the record, if galvao did in fact refuse to shake his hand and flipped him off instead, he's a dick and should fuck off. that's the bitch move, here.

I can agree with that .

So you are leaving a school with one of the best grappler in history because he got slapped? Maybe if it was a slapping gym you would have a point.

You sound like a teen

I woud say anyone who's got into a cage to fight Tyron Woodley is certifiably not a bitch.

I don't know the background to this but when you get slapped like that it's time to either fight or call the police and lawyers. If the guy that got slapped is retired maybe one of his team can settle the beef.

People paid good money to affiliate with Andree and his Atos affiliation program.

Now that all can see what true colour Andree is, do you think bjj gyms will want to continue to send him money to use his name?

Remember that gyms are investing into a brand name in order to gain more customers...once they realise that it is not worth the money..they will go somewhere else...it is just busines. Nothing personal.
 
a persons level of bitch tends to fluctuate with time, with it increasing consistently after the age of 30. nothing against Galvao here, safety first. Well done.

I wonder if Galvao felt like a bitch, so he thought he go back and start yapping at Ryan to save face... or something
