Did you know?

• ▸ Across 31 recorded matchups at the 2015 Copa Podio Heavyweight Grand Prix, only 16 percent ended by submission. Points settled 16 of the recorded results, so this was a bracket decided mostly on the scoreboard rather than the finish.
• ▸ Felipe Pena led the field with 6 wins on record here, and 3 of those came by submission. In an event where finishes were scarce, he accounted for a large share of the submission wins on his own.
• ▸ Victor Honorio and Felipe Pena met twice. Honorio took the round robin meeting by advantages on a 0x0 score with 1 advantage, but Pena answered in the Final with a submission.
• ▸ Erberth Santos went 4 wins deep here without a single submission win on record. In the 3rd Place Match he beat Tim Spriggs by advantages on a 0x0 score with 1 advantage, which fits the tight, position-first tone of the bracket.
