I can't help but ezekiel is such a fuckin great choke. Only sub you can get from the top in someone closed guard. Hit it once on a purple belt once. I laughed cause they were way better than me. Didn't mean to be a dick. I was just surprised I got it and thought it was funny. I think they took it as a sign to murder me forever...
That's certainly the standard thought of chokes from top guard but I've seen a video of a BJJ blackbelt being choked unconscious by it in bottom guard - I think by a judoka in an exhibition match or something. Ezekial is one of those weird moves that defies the "position before submission" convention and can be used from anywhere as Oleinik has shown in MMA. Amassa Pao is another one - have to be a bit more careful with that one though and be ready to retract your arm if needed to use it as a guard open.if you try and choke me from inside my guard I’m taking your arm home with me all day.
Remvo used to beba Sherdogger... He was Lee Murray's judo coach - They both used to tell stories on here.i have no idea whether or not this is correct, but for some reason i'm envisioning an attempt from Remco Pardoel, i might be full of shit though.
a locked up ezekiel? it's over. There is no room to twist your hips. it's a sub you have to tap to quickly when locked. try to move your hips people will just follow you.if you try and choke me from inside my guard I’m taking your arm home with me all day.

no way are you serious?Remvo used to beba Sherdogger... He was Lee Murray's judo coach - They both used to tell stories on here.
I still believe that if Akiyama was able to wear a gi in the cage, he would have had much more success.
Aoki's gogo from the mount always impressed me
no way are you serious?
if huge, true.
That's the way to do it.Is it me or is he using his right hand to lift the back of the opponents neck into his ankle while pressing down?
Yes. That's what a gogoplata is.Is it me or is he using his right hand to lift the back of the opponents neck into his ankle while pressing down?
I do believe Remco ezekiel'd his UFC 2 opponent, but it was from the top position.i have no idea whether or not this is correct, but for some reason i'm envisioning an attempt from Remco Pardoel, i might be full of shit though.
