Gordon Ryan vs Nick Rodriguez — UFC Fight Pass Invitational 3, 2022

Fight log

Every submission and takedown called during the bout, in order — the exchanges a win/loss record never shows. There's no player to jump to here, so these are listed as a sequence rather than as timestamps.

Weaker sourcing than the rest of the site, and worth saying so. Every other fight log here is mined from the bout's own broadcast commentary. This one came from a third-party watch-along, so it's one viewer's running description rather than the official call — the shape of the match is probably right, the specifics are not verified, and the original captions contradicted themselves on how close the final choke came. Treat it as a rough account, not a record.

1. 1. Submission armbar Defended — Gordon Ryan Gordon switched from a back attack to an armbar; Nick worked his arm free.
2. 2. Takedown double-leg wrestle-up Attempted — Gordon Ryan From seated butterfly with Rodriguez posted up in front of him, Gordon comes up chasing a double leg, then drops back down to bottom without changing position.
3. 3. Takedown wrestle-up to standing Attempted — Gordon Ryan Another burst from bottom as Gordon tries to build to his feet; he is back on the mat almost immediately with nothing gained. Low confidence — commentary was ambiguous here.
4. 4. Submission heel hook Defended — Nick Rodriguez Nick had a deep 50/50 heel hook; Gordon used a distraction to pull his leg free.
5. 5. Submission heel hook Attempted — Gordon Ryan Post-fight recap: within that same 50/50 exchange Gordon also got a heel hook look of his own that didn't finish.
6. 6. Submission rear naked choke Defended — Gordon Ryan First overtime round: Gordon started on Nick's back; Nick escaped in about 15 seconds.
7. 7. Submission rear naked choke Defended — Gordon Ryan Second overtime round: Gordon again controlled Nick's back for an extended, back-and-forth stretch commentary called nearly two minutes long, without finishing.
8. 8. Submission rear naked choke Defended — Nick Rodriguez Deciding overtime round: Nick took Gordon's back and built a body-triangle/choke threat that carried through toward the final seconds before Gordon got out.
9. 9. Submission rear naked choke Defended — Nick Rodriguez Choke nearly locked in during the final two seconds of the round as Gordon escaped, and he was declared winner by fastest escape time, 45 seconds. Auto-captions elsewhere contradict whether this one came even closer to finishing — worth a human rewatch to confirm.
