2018 IBJJF Floripa Winter Open

Did you know?

• ▸ Across 24 recorded matchups at the 2018 IBJJF Floripa Winter Open, wins split evenly between submissions and points at 9 each, with a submission rate of 38 percent. That is a healthy finishing pace for a regional IBJJF event.
• ▸ The Ezekiel Choke showed up 2 times among recorded finishes, tying the Armbar for most common. Fernando Reis used it to close out Super Heavyweight over Adson Lima, and Caio Caetano used it to take Middleweight against Ygor Dantas.
• ▸ Alex Sodré and Renato Cardoso each finished 2 of their wins by submission on record here. Sodré went 3 wins, while Cardoso went 2 for 2 on the finishing side, capping his run with a Straight Ankle Lock over Matheus Godoy in the Heavyweight final.
• ▸ Fellipe Trovo reached two finals and came up short in both, losing the 100kgs final to Adson Sales on points and the Absolute Division final to Otavio Nalati by submission.
• ▸ Otavio Nalati won both his recorded finals in different ways, taking Ultra Heavyweight by Other and the Absolute Division by submission. That kind of double-final showing across weight and open class is worth noting for a two-day event.
