The rivalry

Gianni Grippo and Osvaldo Queixinho Moizinho met 10 times on record, and Grippo holds the edge at 7 wins to 3. Both compete at Peso Pena (70kg/154lbs), and the bulk of their meetings came in 2014, with later bouts stretching into 2017 and 2018. The rivalry lived in the semifinal and quarterfinal rounds of major brackets, from the 2014 IBJJF San Francisco Open to the 2017 World Jiu-Jitsu IBJJF Championship and the 2018 European Jiu-Jitsu IBJJF Championship.

Not one of the 10 matches ended by submission. Every result came from points, advantages, or decisions, which tells you these were tight, position-driven battles between two even opponents. Two of them were decided on a single advantage, and one at Fight 2 Win Pro 30 went to a split decision. When margins are that thin, the takeaway is that neither man could impose a finish on the other.

Grippo, out of Alliance, carries a 73% win rate across 296 recorded matches with a 27% submission rate on his wins, favoring the Gi Choke From Back. Moizinho, founder of Ares JJ, sits at a 64% win rate over 137 recorded matches with a 23% submission rate, and his most frequent finish on record is the Omoplata. Their split at the 2014 San Francisco Open, where Moizinho won the semifinal but Grippo took the final, captures the back-and-forth nature of the whole series.
