In the co-main event Mason Fowler became UFC BJJ’s inaugural light heavyweight champion after submitting David Garmo with a rear naked choke in the first round. Fowler’s size advantage and submission awareness were evident from the opening exchange.
Andrew Tackett retained his welterweight title in the main event finishing Renato Canuto with a darce choke. Canuto came out aggressively but Tackett remained composed countered with superior wrestling and found the finish before the end of the first round.
While the grappling was world-class UFC BJJ’s digital footprint continues to raise eyebrows. Episode 2’s livestream peaked at 40,000 concurrent viewers. Yet shortly after the event ended the stream was unlisted from UFC’s main YouTube channel. Although still viewable via direct link it had accrued only 231,000 views—a sharp drop from the highly suspicious 1.4 million views that Episode 1 allegedly received. The video has since been re-listed.
Many users previously noted unusual patterns in the comment sections including bot-like language and inflated engagement metrics. Episode 2’s more modest numbers—and the decision to hide it from the main feed—suggest UFC may be trying to quietly downplay inconsistencies in the grappling promotion’s online popularity.
