2012 IBJJF Pan Championship
Mar 29 - Apr 1, 2012
Did you know?
- Across 79 recorded matchups at the 2012 Pan, 45 ended by submission for a submission rate of 57 percent, so more than half the finishes came from a tap rather than the scoreboard.
- Of the recorded submissions, chokes led the way with 9, followed by 8 armbars. If you train the fundamentals, this is a reminder that the collar and the arm are still where the finishes live at the top level.
- Leandro Lo went 5-0 on record here with 0 submission wins, taking his Lightweight final over Lucas Lepri on points. His run shows you can dominate a hard bracket purely on positional control and scoring.
- Marcus Almeida "Buchecha" and Antonio Carlos Jr. both posted 6 wins with 5 by submission, the sharpest finishing ratios among the top performers at the event.
- In the Absolute semi-finals Marcus Almeida beat Kron Gracie by kneebar, a leg attack finish standing out in an event where 9 chokes and 8 armbars were the most common submissions.
