AUGUST 22, 2020, As it is often the case, last night’s Fight 2 Win show was a night of fantastic grappling entertainment, filled with top-notch jiu-jitsu talent.

As per usual, the gi matches dominated in the submission game in terms of match-ending finishes obtained, a trend that has persisted in this promotion for a few months:

39 Recorded Matches – 14 submissions (36% sub rate)
13 Gi Matches – 7 submissions (54% sub rate)
26 No-Gi Matches – 7 submissions (27% sub rate)

BRAZILIAN FIGHT FACTORY & ARES DOMINANCE

Rodrigo Cabral‘s BFF went 3×0 last night in style, with the team’s more familiar faces Kody Steele and Andrew Tackett having, arguably, the performances of the night, particularly Tackett, a purple belt teenager who beat and dominated a very crafty black belt veteran in Orlando Castillo. Impressive also was Tiffany Butler, who dominated and submitted her opponent.

Another big winner from last night’s event was the Ares Jiu-Jitsu Academy, a gym that has consistently impressed in the amount of top talent the team has brought forward over the past few months. The Osvaldo Queixinho and Samir Chantre team had 7 athletes on the card, 6 of which were victorious. Particularly impressive was the performance of purple belt Matheus Azancot, who has a brilliant future ahead of him.

On the other side of the spectrum was 10th Planet. The famous sub-only, no-gi based team did have a few solid performances, particularly Kemoy Anderson, who conquered a beautiful submission win via kesagatame, but overall conquered 3 wins out of 12 matches.

LUKEWARM MAIN AND CO-MAIN EVENTS

The main event between the legendary Rômulo Barral and Tanner Rice was not among the best matches of the night, not by a long shot. Although well known for both their passing and their guard playing, neither Rice nor Barral is famous for their stand-up, which, unfortunately, is where the entirety of the match was spent.

In the co-main event, Márcio André came up two weight classes to challenge Atos’ rising star, Ronaldo Junior. Throughout the match Junior appeared to be in control, passing André’s guard on a couple of occasions, pulling guard near the end and sweeping the Arizona based coach, Márcio.

Both athletes exchanged feet attacks, none that appeared close to a finish. Despite Ronaldo’s perceived dominance, the judges saw it in Márcio’s favor. An odd decision when assessing the match from the outside.
