Was watching Gomi. vs Marcus Aurelio and I can't understand why Aurelio didn't switch his hips and walk forward. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fFPu0FzuZ_I
This guy has forgotten more jiu jitsu than I know, but I just can't see any reason why you wouldn't walk your legs forward. Machida did the same thing against Sokodjou. He kept his body in the same position while applying the arm triangle and didn't walk forward.
Walking forward tightens the choke and doesn't risk a loss in position (as far as I can see). All your weight is still on them. So what gives?
Please dont reply unless you know what the hell ur talking about. Thanks.
