2014 Copa Podio Lightweight GP

May 10, 2014

Did you know?

  • Across 22 recorded matchups at the 2014 Copa Podio Lightweight GP, only 36 percent ended by submission. Most fights went to the judges, with 9 decided on points and 8 by submission.
  • The armbar was the most common finish here with 3 recorded, followed by the gi choke from the back with 2. If you train no-gi that back attack is the reminder that the collar is a real weapon in the gi.
  • Leandro Lo led the field with 5 wins, 3 of them by submission. That is a strong submission ratio for a competitor better known for his passing and points pressure.
  • Gregor Gracie and Gilbert Burns each finished with 4 wins, but their paths split in the semis where Gregor beat Burns on points to move on.
  • Leandro Lo closed out the -77kgs final by armbarring Gregor Gracie. He had already gotten past Victor Silvério on points in the semis to reach that match.
