Did you know?

Across the 20 recorded matchups at the 2021 IBJJF Atlanta Open, 12 ended by submission, giving a submission rate of 60 percent. That is a high finishing rate for a gi event and tells you people were coming to close matches out.
The most common finish on record here was the gi choke from the back, with 5 of them. The armbar was next with 4, so back attacks and armbars together accounted for most of the submissions.
Andre Porfirio led the event with 3 wins on record, though only 1 came by submission. He advanced through the Absolute Division bracket and beat Helton Junior by decision in the semi-finals.
Kevin Mahecha, Felipe Linhares, and Gialysson Adao Silva Freitas each went 2 wins with 2 submission wins on record, meaning every recorded win for them was a finish. Mahecha closed out his Lightweight final with an armbar.
Not every final was decisive. The Heavyweight final between Dominique Bell and Andre Porfirio was settled by advantage, and the Medium Heavyweight final between Andre Gois and Anthony Elbert is recorded as a draw.
