Edmaicon Moraes beat Gerson Atoigue in the 150lb black belt gi main event at Fight To Win Pro 65 this evening. It was a completely action-packed night in Dallas, TX, with the first 11 of 12 matches ending by submission, and only fitting that the main event finish in the same fashion.
Atoigue came out firing right off the bat with a flying triangle attempt, but fell to guard and quickly started working worm guard to slow his opponent’s advances.
The Roots CTA black belt seemed in control of the match, shutting down Moraes with the lapel weave and eventually sweeping him overhead via balloon sweep.
Moraes capitalized on the position however, and quickly threw up his legs, catching the Gracie Gym black belt in a tight triangle.
It was only a matter of second before Atoigue tapped to the suffocating pressure of the triangle, giving Moraes the submission victory.

In what could be labeled the Fight of the Night, Dillon Hinojosa fought back from what appeared to be an imminent defeat from Keaton Standridge in a 155lb purple belt no-gi match.
The Genesis jiu-jitsu competitor endured multiple RNC attempts and eventually slammed his way out of a deep triangle. He then snatched up his opponent’s foot and forced the tap via heel hook. It was a valiant display of heart and technique from the young purple belt.
