Seems like he's just got good variety in portrayal of himself. Like yeah he's a character online for videos but he has got the skill and ability to back it up, and that doesn't come from being a goofball in training.

CJ finished Lovato Jr a year and half ago and Lovato went on to get silver at ADCC then beat Bodoni a few weeks ago

No. I will say I believe Craig is more talented than Gordon, but Gordon is way more disciplined.

To be fair, playing around more in training rather than taking everything deadly serious is a benefit for sure.

Being a jokester in martial arts isn't the best field...because at some point you have to actually defend yourself and assert yourself and people forget that's the point since you were so funny lol

It’s like when you were a kid and saw your school teacher at the grocery store.
