Four titles were on the line at Fight to Win Pro 64; headlined by a heavyweight no-gi competition between Tim Spriggs and Rafael Lovato Jr. At the end of the night, Lovato Jr. would walk out of the event with his hand raised and a F2W title around his waist.
Many were anticipating a highly aggressive bout between Spriggs and Lovato Jr, which is exactly what occurred in Denver, Colorado. Wrestling was the first technique of choice as both attempted takedowns but it would be Lovato Jr.’s single leg attempt from his bag that would get the match back to the floor.
Lovato Jr’s pressure passing kept Spriggs on his back until Spriggs found his way to turtle position; opening up the path for Lovato Jr. to take his back. From there it was a matter of time before Lovato Jr. had his hooks in place and moved on to the figure-four body lock. Spriggs attempted to fight off the attack, but he would be forced to submit to a rear naked choke before the ten minute time limit elapsed.
The super heavyweight no-gi title was also on the line as Joao Assis defended his title against Eliot Marshall. Both Marshall and Assis were very aggressive in their approach, but Assis’s strength and passing to better positions earned him the unanimous decision. This was his fifth victory under the Fight to Win Pro banner.
The female purple belt title was on the line on Friday as Mo Black and Amy Montenegro met to see who would take home the belt. The Prime BJJ competitor would show her dominance as Black pulled out the victory via submission to claim the victory.
That wasn’t the only women’s title that was on the line as Vanessa Wexler and Nikki Sullivan competed for the bantamweight no-gi brown belt title. These two women put on a tough battle with a lot of back and forth action. It would be Sullivan who took home the victory, but it wasn’t a clear win as she earned a contentious split decision.
