2015 IBJJF New York Spring Open
Apr 14, 2015
Did you know?
- Across the 25 recorded matchups at the 2015 IBJJF New York Spring Open, submissions finished only 20 percent of them, so most of what you saw came down to points and positional decisions rather than taps.
- Of the recorded finishes, 7 came by Points and 5 by Submission, a spread that tells you this bracket rewarded control and scoring as much as hunting for the finish.
- Tim Spriggs put up 3 wins on record here, the most of anyone at the event, and he did it with 0 submission wins, grinding through on points and a decision instead.
- Jonathan Satava stands out on the performer list: both of his 2 recorded wins came by submission, the only competitor here to finish everything he won.
- Spriggs reached the Absolute Division final against Francisco Iturralde but took the loss by DQ, an unusual way to see a bracket that strong get decided.
