Did you know?

  • Of Gilson Nunes' 51 recorded wins, 26 came by submission, a submission rate of 51 percent against a site average of 40 percent. That tells you he is looking to finish, not just manage a scoreboard.
  • The triangle choke is Nunes' signature finish, accounting for 13 of his submission wins on record. That is roughly half his submission total coming off one attack, which says a lot about how much he threatens off his back and off broken posture.
  • Nunes met Kevin Mahecha 4 times and won all 4, including a points decision at the 2017 IBJJF Atlanta Spring International Open. That is a matchup he simply owned every time it came up.
  • In 2019 Nunes finished Alexandre Molinaro by triangle choke at the IBJJF Dallas Summer Open, the same weapon he used to submit Brian Mahecha at the 2018 IBJJF Atlanta Spring International Open. When the triangle is there, he takes it against name opponents.
  • The bulk of Nunes' recorded work is in the gi, with 56 gi matches to 8 no-gi. His busiest recorded year was 2018 with 24 matches, the same year he took silver at the IBJJF World No-Gi Championship.
