Style Matchup Analysis
Where this game is vulnerable
Exploitable Patterns
Physically stronger opponents who can overpower her technique in the clinch
Pressure passers with heavy top control who can pin her guard
Larger opponents where the size gap negates technical advantages
Nightmare Matchup
Garcia's size and strength advantage is simply too much. Ffion's technical guard game — her biggest weapon — gets crushed under Garcia's weight and power.
Closest Calls
Ste-Marie's wrestling and scramble ability pushed Ffion to the limit in one of the best women's ADCC finals ever.
Engine Insight
Relative weakness: Takedowns (78) is 5 points below their 83 average — opponents strong in this area have the best chance.
Trophy Case
First European woman to win ADCC gold
