Andre Galvao and Felipe Pena met 5 times on record, with Galvao holding a 3 to 2 edge. Every one of those meetings went to points, so nobody finished the other across the rivalry. The venues cover the full competitive spread: three IBJJF gi matches, one gi match at the Abu Dhabi World Professional Jiu-Jitsu Championship 2016, and one nogi match at the 2019 ADCC World Championships.

The timeline tells the story. Pena took the first two, including the final of the 2014 World Jiu-Jitsu IBJJF Championship, while Galvao answered later that same year in the semi-finals of the 2014 Pan Jiu-Jitsu IBJJF Championship. Galvao then closed out the rivalry by winning the last two, the 2017 IBJJF World semi-final and the 2019 ADCC meeting.

Both men train under the Atos banner and finish at close to the same rate: 43% of Galvao's recorded wins came by submission against 46% for Pena. They also share a favorite finish in the Gi Choke From Back, though neither man used a submission to settle any of their five matches with each other. The gap between them was small and every meeting was decided on the scoreboard.
