2016 Copa Podio Middleweight Grand Prix

Did you know?

• ▸ Across 22 recorded matchups at the 2016 Copa Podio Middleweight Grand Prix, 11 ended on points. That tells you how much of this bracket was decided in tight, position-driven exchanges rather than finishes.
• ▸ Erberth Santos went 4 wins with all 4 coming by submission on record. In a field where most decisions went to points, he was the outlier hunting the finish every time out.
• ▸ Leandro Lo led the event with 5 wins and 0 of them by submission, a clean reflection of his points-based, passing-heavy style.
• ▸ The submission rate for the event sat at 27 percent, and the most common finish was the kneebar with 2. Leglocks showing up at the top of a Copa Podio finish list is worth noting for how the game was trending.
• ▸ Erberth Santos and Cláudio Calasans fought to a Draw in the group stage, one of only 1 draw recorded across the whole event.
