2023 Grapple in the Temple 3
Jan 27, 2023
Did you know?
- Across the 27 recorded matchups at 2023 Grapple in the Temple 3, 19 ended by submission and 8 went to a decision. That is a 70 percent submission rate, which tells you this was a finishing-heavy card.
- Leg attacks led the way in the recorded finishes, with 4 Heel Hooks and 3 Straight Ankle Locks. Add in 2 Kneebars and the lower body was clearly a primary target on this card.
- Chokes were less common than leg locks here, with 2 Rear Naked Chokes and just 1 Guillotine Choke among the recorded finishes. If you want the guillotine sample, Anthony Nitecky landed the only one against Chaz Terrabrood.
- The armbar showed up 2 times on the card, and both came from recorded matchups: Joe Rencsok over Christopher Lee and Joe Youngblood over Aaron Piper.
- Not everyone needed a finish to win. Vinícius Ferreira Gazola beat Rida Haisam by decision, and Pedro Zapata took his win over John Toth the same way, showing there was room for control-based grappling among all the submissions.
