3rd Coast Grappling: Kumite IV has concluded, capping off its fourth impressive event with a pair of matches worthy of the finals.

In the main superfight of the evening, Gordon Ryan took on Brian Marvin in a ten-minute exhibition match to raise money for the We Defy Foundation.

Ryan immediately pulled guard at the start of the ten-minute match, soon coming up to pass Marvins guard instead. Marvin came up and got his leg caught in Ryans quarter-guard before both competitors disengaged, with Ryan resuming playing open guard. Marvin worked on collecting Ryans back, going for an armbar that Ryan quickly escaped. Ryan then took the top position, and both athletes fell back and teased leg locks before Ryan once again came back on top. Ryan then worked Marvin into a body triangle before letting Marvin out. Marvin worked past Ryans guard, but Ryan was able to come on top and work for an armbar from the back. Marvin came up on top and briefly sat back for a leg lock, but Ryan once again took the top position, with Marvin fighting from the bottom in half-guard. Ryan shimmied to mount and isolated Marvins head and arm, rolling up to his back before transitioning to the top position. With fifteen seconds left, Ryan took Marvins back, sunk in the rear naked choke, and finished the match with three seconds left to go.

In the final match of the absolute Kumite bracket, Roberto Cyborg Abreu took on Fellipe Andrew.

Andrew started the match by pulling guard, but Cyborg quickly got past his legs. As Cyborg moved around, he was nearly able to take Andrews back, but Andrew managed to roll out and avoid it. As Andrew resumed playing open guard, Cyborg came down from on top and secured a guillotine choke. Although Andrew stood and attempted to defend, it wasnt enough, and Cyborg was able to get the tap just a couple minutes into the match.

Cyborg was declared the winner and will go home with the $10,000 prize and the title of Kumite IV champion.
