Brodie Sprylan continues to cement his status as one of the most exciting submission grapplers in the country after a strong performance at Battlegrounds Australia 6. Competing in the main event in his hometown of Perth, Brodie faced off against the experienced Thomas David in a tightly contested match that showcased both technical precision and elite-level grit.
A Showcase of Grit and Skill
As the crowd at Battlegrounds Australia 6 filled with local supporters, all eyes were on Perth’s own Brodie Sprylan, not just for his rising star power, but because he was wearing the unreleased Akaryu Red Kit from Inversion Fightwear. The bold, unreleased design made a powerful statement before the match even began, turning heads across the venue and social media alike.
The match was a war of tactics and physicality, a display of modern no-gi grappling at the highest level.
- Brodie initiated multiple wrestle-up sequences, successfully consolidating into sweeps, and forcing Thomas to stay defensive on the bottom multiple times during the match
- Thomas responded with superior wrestling of his own, hitting multiple clean takedowns and showcasing a rock-solid base throughout the match.
- In the end, Thomas David’s takedown volume and positional control earned him a unanimous decision victory.
While the decision went to Thomas, the match was far from one-sided, Brodie’s grit, timing, and relentless forward pressure kept the main event razor-close.
