2026 Polaris vs BJJ Stars Squads

Did you know?

• ▸ The 2026 Polaris vs BJJ Stars Squads card ran at the National Basketball Arena in Dublin, marking Polaris's first ever event in Ireland. It was billed as the biggest Jiu-Jitsu event the country has hosted.
• ▸ Across 36 recorded matchups on this card, only 13 ended by submission and 23 went to decision. That works out to a 36 percent submission rate, so most of these bouts were settled on the judges' scorecards.
• ▸ When finishes did come, the rear naked choke led the way with 6, followed by the heel hook at 3. If you train the back and the legs, those were the two positions paying off here.
• ▸ Taylor Pearman posted 4 wins on record at this event, more than anyone else on the card, though only 1 of those came by submission. His decision over Elioenai Braz came from controlling pace and positioning rather than hunting the finish.
• ▸ Paweł Jaworski went 3 wins with 2 by submission, including an ankle-lock over Isaque Bahiense in the Polaris vs BJJ Stars Squads match. In a card that mostly went to decision, he was one of the few consistently closing the show.
