Pedro Palhares

Did you know?

• ▸ Across 45 recorded matches, Palhares finished 4 of his wins by submission, which puts his submission rate at 22 percent, well under the site average of 40 percent. His game leans on other paths to victory more than on the finish.
• ▸ Of his recorded matches, 28 were in the gi and 14 were no-gi, so he has competed on both sides of the sport but shows up in the gi twice as often.
• ▸ Points losses account for 13 of his 27 recorded losses, so most of the time an opponent beat him he did it on the scoreboard rather than by finish.
• ▸ One of his cleaner recorded wins came against Gregor Gracie by Triangle Choke at the 2019 IBJJF Atlanta Winter Open, one of only 4 submission wins on record.
• ▸ His busiest recorded year was 2019 with 11 matches, and he shows up most often at the 2021 Pan IBJJF Jiu-Jitsu No-Gi Championship with 5 appearances.
