The rivalry
Mason Fowler and Nick Rodriguez have met just once on record, at the 2024 UFC Fight Pass Invitational 7 in 2024. Rodriguez took that match on points, so the head to head sits at 1-0 in his favor. It was a no-gi meeting decided without a submission, which fits how both men tend to operate when the level of opposition is high.
Their broader records tell a similar story of two dominant grapplers coming from different places. Fowler, out of the Caio Terra Association, carries a recorded 47 wins against 6 losses and 3 draws for an 84% win rate, with 55% of his wins coming by submission. Rodriguez, a former wrestler, shows 50 wins, 12 losses, and 8 draws across 70 recorded matches for a 71% win rate, with 48% of his wins by submission. Both lean on the Rear Naked Choke as their most productive finish.
The common opponents line up closely enough that the single meeting does not settle much between them. Both beat Andy Varela and Luke Griffith, both lost to Victor Hugo, and both have faced Roberto Jimenez. On the current evidence the points loss is the only thing separating them directly.
