but he was still an elite BJJ black belt in his prime BJJ years and Ryan caught him. I’d argue that BJ’s ground game was probably better in 2018 than it was in 2008
How would you know how his skills were in 2018? He punched a heavy bag 3 times a month in Hawaii with his brother for his training the last dozen years of his career and didn't have a competitive fight for 7 years before that.

You have literally no clue what you’re talking about. He was training partners with one of my coaches in Brazil starting in the early 2000’s and continued to train there at Nova Uniao into the end of his career. And he trained at Jackson Wink on and off for a while during that time span too. The guy wasn’t just shadow boxing on the beach for 12 years while he held the UFC title belt lol
That being said, people improve at Jiu jitsu indefinitely. To say that he wasn’t better at Jiu jitsu after 10 years of training with elite people is ridiculous. It’s not even that serious, my point is that Ryan Hall beat one of the greatest Jiu jitsu practitioners ever on the ground. He’s not fighting scrubs
