New York, USA

Did you know?

Of 21 recorded matchups at the 2014 NY BJJ Pro, 16 ended by submission, a 76 percent submission rate. That tells you this was a card full of people looking to finish, not ride out points.
Only 3 wins on record came by points and 2 by decision. If you were scouting this event, submission defense was the skill that decided most matches.
The most common finish here was the Gi Choke From Back with 3, ahead of the Toe Hold, Kimura, and Armbar at 2 each. A reminder that back control stays king even at black belt.
Bernardo Faria closed out the 100kgs division by catching Abraham Marte in a Kneebar in the final. Marte himself went 2 for 2 by submission in his recorded wins, so this was a finisher beating a finisher.
Joao Miyao led with 3 recorded wins, including a points decision over Gianni Grippo in the 70kgs final. Grippo posted 2 wins here but none by submission, which fits the grinding, position-first style he was known for.
