I saw someone online recently state the phrase, “If art is how you decorate space, music is how you decorate time.” This quote sent me spiraling in thought.

The closest race in the history of our Year-End awards resulted in a trio of fighters sharing Submission of the Year for 2020.
The Submission of the Year for 2020 was one of the most hotly contested categories in our Year-End MMA awards. There were a lot of strong candidates, from Jack Hermansson’s heel hook submission of Kelvin Gastelum, to Jimmy Flick’s flying triangle. Ariane Lipski got in the running with a nasty kneebar. Violence Queen indeed!
A trio of higher stakes submissions came out on top however. That’s right we have a three-way tie! Read on to see who shared the honors for Submission of the Year 2020.
