William Tackett turns a rolling scramble into back control
UFC BJJ's fast-starting match clip also has viewers asking where they can watch the rest.
Why this story? The video opened at a pace of 61,372 views a day, 17 times a normal first day on this channel (3,528).
This back take from William Tackett 😮💨 #UFCBJJ13
William Tackett starts on his feet, wrestling his opponent to the mat. A scramble follows, then a roll puts him behind the other grappler. "Tackett gets to the back!" the commentator calls, just as Tackett begins threatening the neck.
That quick sequence is the centerpiece of UFC BJJ's Short, which reached roughly 27,000 views in seven hours, already far beyond the channel's usual full-day audience for this format. It is a compact demonstration of how quickly a grappling exchange can turn from a contest for position into a submission threat. The clip shows the attempt, not a confirmed finish.
The discussion underneath extends beyond Tackett's technique. Several viewers question the subscription barrier to watching the event, while another wants the excerpt to run a few seconds longer. The back take has given them something to examine, but the conversation is also about access to the whole match.
UFC BJJ has posted opening matches from the card in English and Spanish, alongside a post-match press conference.
