A closer look at Jay Rod’s latest finish 🔍
Jay Rodriguez knew which submission he wanted before the match began. After Kevin Berbrich tapped, he ran to his corner and celebrated by kissing team members on the forehead. The planning and the affection both make it into UFC BJJ's short breakdown of his finish.
Rodriguez says this was the first time he had specifically game-planned a submission before executing it. Watching the match back in split screen, he explains how he passed to Berbrich's left, suppressed the knee shield, gained mount and transitioned into an inverted D'Arce choke. His opening intention was straightforward: start fast and initiate first in every round.
The clip drew an estimated 45,000 views in its first day, roughly thirteen times the channel's usual Shorts start. Its comment section was also much busier than usual, with viewers asking what the guard pass is called and trying out names for the finishing choke. One offers a compact Rodriguez-inspired variation: a "Jarce."
Naming the move turns out to be part of Rodriguez's own analysis. He calls it an inverted D'Arce, distinguishing that from the "Farce," a name he associates with Jeff Glover. Then comes the shrug and a less technical explanation: "I mean, call it whatever you want, it chokes people."
