Flow Sub Only: Underground took place on February 25th, 2024, and the promotion put on a light-heavyweight tournament that attracted some very talented grapplers. The heavyweight main event superfight saw Matthew Saucier step in on less than 24 hours notice to replace a sick competitor against Zachary Silva, with Silva ultimately winning by ride-time in EBI overtime. The tournament produced a ton of exciting matches though, with Maxim Cote standing on one side of the bracket by submitting his first two opponents in regulation time before winning his semi-final match by ride-time in EBI overtime.
Sean Yadimarco received a bye through the opening round of the tournament due to there being 15 competitors, but as soon as he hit the mats he was able to produce results. Yadimarco submitted both Tristan Shields and Nikolay Todorov in order to book his place opposite Cote, setting up a fantastic final match for the tournament. Cote was able to take him all the way to EBI overtime and neither man was able to find the finish there either, but Yadimarco ended up getting the win by ride-time. Yadimarco took home the $1,000 cash prize as a result, solidifying the fact that he’s one to keep an eye on in the near future.
