2022 IBJJF Jiu-Jitsu CON International

Did you know?

• ▸ Across 50 recorded matchups at the 2022 IBJJF Jiu-Jitsu CON International, 32 ended by submission for a submission rate of 64 percent. That is a finish-heavy event by any measure, so expect people who were hunting positions rather than sitting on leads.
• ▸ The most common finish here was the gi choke from back with 10 recorded submissions, well ahead of the triangle choke at 4. If you want to know where matches ended at this event, it was on the back with a collar.
• ▸ Fellipe Andrew went 5 for 5 on record here, and every one of those 5 wins came by submission. Clean sweep with no matches left to the judges.
• ▸ Fellipe Andrew closed out both his 100kgs final over Cássio Costa and the Absolute Division final over Gabriel Oliveira with the same weapon, the arm triangle choke. When one grip is working across weight classes, there is no reason to change it.
• ▸ Not every top finisher relied on submissions. Keven Carrasco reached 3 wins with 0 submission wins, and took his Light Featherweight final over Huthayfah Penney on an advantage, a reminder that grip fighting and scrambles still decide finals.
