Fight to Win 314: Las Vegas

Did you know?

• ▸ Across 61 recorded matchups tied to this card, submissions accounted for a 64 percent finish rate. That is a high mark for any tournament, and it lines up with a night built around superfights where competitors were hunting the finish.
• ▸ Of the recorded results, 39 came by submission and 21 by decision. When the fight went to the judges, it usually meant a close, controlled match rather than a runaway.
• ▸ The finishing sequences leaned on leg attacks as much as anything from the top. Keli Manglona hit an ankle-lock after switching off a pass against Cleiton Inocente, while Brittany Reyes caught a kneebar off a roll-through against Makayla Chipman.
• ▸ Jerry Shapiro closed the card by mounting PJ Lindner and locking up a mounted arm-triangle choke. A finishing main event is the ending you want on a submission-heavy night.
• ▸ Among the recorded submission finishes, only a handful had a named technique attached: 1 armbar, 1 mounted arm-triangle choke, 1 ankle-lock, and 1 kneebar. The rest sit unlabeled, so the specific finishes for most matches were not on record.
