Guy looks like he is selling sports supplements. “You too, can look like this if you buy our pills/shakes. Yes, even you tubby!”

And a buff BJJ practitioner isn’t weird at all. Ricardo Arona was shredded.

by the way dude completely dominated ADCC, far ahead of everyone else

This was beyond domination. Nicky Rod, who he competed against in the 99+ finals, trained with him at Renzo's. He has as intimate of knowledge of Gordon's game as anyone that he's competed against. Gordon subbed him in 2 minutes. He barely broke a sweat up until the superfight.

The match with Galvao was more impressive imo. Galvao, considered the no gi GOAT by most, had absolutely nothing for him. Gordon didn't even have the RNC locked in all the way when Galvao tapped.

do you see anyone that could challenge Gordon in the near future...it seemed like the entire ADCC he made everybody look like a white belt, his dominance is insane

How about arguably the greatest Brazilian Jujutsu grappler of all time with possibly unrivalved technique, knowledge and skill

Maybe have some respect for the Gracie Family.
You know the ones that actually invented BJJ.

If you think he is above Hélio Gracie or Rorion Gracie, red belts in BJJ, maybe you don't say that.
AFAIK, he hasn't invented a new Martial art, and carries a legacy just with his name Alone.

Nope. There's no one across any division that can compete with him.

he looks like someone that has committed at least 3 sexual assaults.

You should lay off the soy milk.

If we're talking about the best at no-gi, there's no question it's Gordon. No one has had a run like he's having or run through such high level opposition so effortlessly. If we're talking in the gi, Roger Gracie is generally considered the GOAT.

Being the best ≠ being Great

Floyd Mayweather is the best boxer in his weight classes. That doesn't make him great.
There is more than just winning competitions and crushing the opposition.

Rodney Mullen didn't win all the skateboarding competitions, but he still one of the greats.
He changed the whole sport, invented dozen of moves, inspired countless people to take up skateboarding.

Just start with cold showers, if you can't handle that, ice baths are a big nono.

Start slow, first 1 minute, next time 2 min until you can just only shower with cold water (cold not semi-cold)

Cold showers have many benefits aswell.

I think you're talking about influence on a sport.
