Submission of the Week: Flying Armbar
Jun 23, 2009
By DEAT A few things: 1) Yes, I have seen this work IN COMPETITION, with no gi. 2) Yes, it’s easier to do with a gi. 3) I would only try it as a counter to an Osoto Gari. They are committed with the sweeping side arm either in a single collar or deep in the gi if you ( continued )

Submission of the Week: Chicken Wing Wrist Lock

Submission of the Week: Clock Choke from Turtle Position
May 26, 2009
By DEAT This is a gi choke. Often, when your oppoent turtles or sprawls, you have a great opportunity for a submission immediately, instead of trying to work for position first. This is pretty easy and quick: Check back here for next week’s featured submission and the latest in MMA news! ( continued )

Submission of the Week: Standing Ankle Lock from Half Guard
May 13, 2009

It falls into the category of “It’s so krazy that it JUST MIGHT WORK.” Paulson is a genius. Check back here for next week’s featured submission and the latest in ( continued )

Submission of the Week: Teepee Choke
May 5, 2009
By DEAT I call this the pyramid, but everyone else calls it a teepee. This is another sneaky one. You start a sloppy triangle choke, or they defend it by preventing you from pulling their arm over. The trick is to then lock your ankles and straighten your legs, using your arms to hug your knees ( continued )

Submission of the Week: Baseball Choke
Apr 28, 2009
By DEAT This is sick and sneaky. The guy jumps right into it thinking that he’s passing your guard. You can do it with a gable grip if you are wearing no gi. The tricks are to 1) bring your elbows close to your body, and 2) walk your feet away to almost get north south ( continued )

Submission of the Week: Bicep Crush
Apr 20, 2009
By DEAT This one is great for people who like armbars. Basically, most people defend the armbar by bending their arm and grabbing it with their farside hand. If they are tired, or not stacking you, they become immediately vulnerable to this one. TRY IT, it hurts like a fucking bitch. Check back here for next week’s ( continued )

Submission of the Week: Shoulder/Elbow Lock from Scarf Hold
Apr 13, 2009
By DEAT This is my FAVORITE submission, and occasionally, when I get the scarf position, the guys I train with will say “not again!” http://fightpredictionleagues.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=13316 ( continued )
