2017 IBJJF Pan No-Gi Championship

Did you know?

• ▸ Across 39 recorded matchups at this event, submissions accounted for a 26 percent finish rate. Points decided the most matches at 20, which tells you how much positional control mattered here.
• ▸ The Rear Naked Choke was the most common finish on record with 3, followed by the Straight Ankle Lock at 2. That mix of a back-take choke and a leg attack is about what you would expect from a no-gi bracket.
• ▸ Dante Leon and Jackson Sousa both went 4 wins deep, tied for the most at the event. Leon picked up 1 submission along the way while Sousa scored all 4 of his without a finish.
• ▸ Joao Miyao recorded 2 wins here and finished both by submission, the only performer with a 2 for 2 submission rate. When the Miyao game gets to the finish, it usually stays on the ground and ends there.
• ▸ Jackson Sousa closed out two finals on points, taking the Super Heavyweight title over Eliot Kelly and the Absolute Division over Diego Ramalho. Doubling up on gold at open weight and your own division in the same weekend is a serious run.
