On Saturday night at the ADCC 2024 World Tournament, Gordon Ryan went through a tough 30 minute Superfight grappling match with the always game Felipe Pena, defeating the Brazilian on points to bring their record to 2-2 over four fights (watch the highlights here).
And in a few hours, “Gordo” will compete again, becoming the first Superfight champion to compete twice in one weekend for ADCC. This Sunday (August 18th, 2024) he’ll face 2022 Absolute champion Yuri Simoes in another Superfight to wrap up the World Tournament event.
But what time will Gordon Ryan compete? When should you tune in to FloGrappling, where the ADCC 2024 World Tournament is being broadcast from the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada?
ADCC Day 2 starts at 1PM ET (10AM PT) and it all depends on how fast or slow the semi-finals and finals for all the men’s and women’s divisions go. Then there’s the Absolute tournament, and finally Ryan and Simoes will compete.

According to FloGrappling, the ADCC World Championship Absolute Division kicks off at 6:30PM ET (3:30PM PT), and the Absolute Medal Round at 8:30PM ET (5:30PM PT). The Gordon Ryan vs. Yuri Simoes ADCC Super Fight is expected to start at 9:30PM ET (6:30PM PT).
While you wait, check out all the highlights and results from ADCC 2024 Day 1.
As for Saturday’s match between Ryan and Pena, it was a less than super Superfight as far as entertainment went. The two jiu jitsu masters didn’t even hit the mats for the first five minutes, and then spent the majority of the twenty minute regulation time period with Ryan in half guard defending his heel from a Pena submission.
In overtime Pena scrambled for Gordo’s back but didn’t quite secure his position, allowing Ryan to take top position and two points. Those points were the only points scored, earning Ryan the win.
Hopefully, we’ll see more action against Simoes, who will have his hands full against Ryan, who is undefeated (4-0) against the 2022 Absolute champ.
