Grappling Report: Gordon Ryan makes his return to competition

It’s been a little over six months since Gordon Ryan decided to announce his retirement from Jiu-Jitsu competition as a result of his ongoing stomach issues. Given that he’s right in the middle of his athletic prime and competing in a sport where athletes have multiple matches in a single day, even half a year is an incredibly long time. Fans will have to wait no longer however, as Ryan will be making his return at an upcoming WNO event.

The event takes place on October 20th, where Ryan will be competing against UFC Welterweight competitor Philip Rowe.
