2010 IBJJF World No-Gi Championship
Dec 1 - 4, 2010
Did you know?
- Across the 32 recorded matchups at the 2010 IBJJF World No-Gi Championship, points decided 16 of them. If you train no-gi expecting a submission scramble, this event is a reminder that positional control still wins a lot of finals.
- The submission rate was 28 percent, with 9 finishes on record. Of those, the rear naked choke led the way with 5, so even without the collar, the back take remained the highest-percentage finishing position here.
- Roberto Abreu, Pablo Popovich, and Gilbert Burns each posted 5 wins at the event. Popovich and Burns added 2 submission wins apiece, while Abreu got most of his work done on points and scrambles.
- Roberto Abreu closed out his Ultra Heavyweight bracket by submitting David Hertzog with a choke in the final, then also beat Lucas Leite on points in the Absolute Division semi-finals. That is a big man carrying the workload across two divisions.
- Two of the finals ended by choke: Gilbert Burns caught Tiago Alves with a guillotine at Middleweight, and Lucas Lepri finished Augusto Mendes with a rear naked choke at Lightweight. Both were the cleaner finishes on a card mostly decided by points and decisions.
