The rivalry

Gianni Grippo and Osvaldo Queixinho Moizinho met 11 times on record, and Grippo holds an 8 to 3 edge in those meetings. Both men compete at Peso Pena (70kg/154lbs), and the rivalry ran through the featherweight brackets of the mid to late 2010s. Their first recorded cluster came in 2014 across several events, including a same-day pairing at the 2014 IBJJF San Francisco Open, where Moizinho took the earlier meeting by decision and Grippo answered back in the final on points.

The deciding factor in most of these matches was scoring rather than finishing. Look at the methods: points, advantages, and decisions dominate the record, with a split decision at Fight to Win 30 in 2017. None of their 11 meetings ended by submission, which tracks with two competitors who lean on positional control and tight margins rather than hunting a specific finish.

The styles show up in the numbers away from the head to head. Grippo has 222 wins across 304 recorded matches for a 73% win rate, with a 27% submission rate of wins and a favorite finish in the Gi Choke From Back at 14 wins. Moizinho sits at 91 wins in 142 recorded matches, a 64% win rate and a 23% submission rate of wins, with the Omoplata as his most frequent finish at 5 wins. Grippo trains under Alliance, Moizinho under Ares JJ.
