Just thought this was worthy of being moved in here for grapplers to see.

Never had heard of a "bulldog" choke before this.

Starting from UFC 28, which is roughly ten years, there have been 300 submission victories in the UFC. I broke down the types of submissions that finished fights using sherdog's UFC event database. Each number following the submission type is the number of fights that were ended by that particular submission out of the 300 total submission victories.

and omaplata...

 

[Messiah_UK]

Only 2 kneebars?

Mir/Lesnar

Shamrock/Horn (oops, UFC 17)

Those are the only two I can think of, is that really it? I can remember lots of attempted kneebars but I would have thought there would have been more than two finishes.

 

[Slippyj***]

and omaplata...

[Volta]

Only 2 kneebars?

Mir/Lesnar

Shamrock/Horn (oops, UFC 17)

Those are the only two I can think of, is that really it? I can remember lots of attempted kneebars but I would have thought there would have been more than two finishes.

Lytle vs Foster - Beautiful rolling kneebar by Lytle

 

[YeahBee]

so Kimura means both Kimura and americana right?

 

[Lutador011]

There has not been one?

Omoplatas

I think there were quite a few but not as finishes. I've seen Jacare do it to Lindland but didn't submit him just pounded on him and then turned him over

Bulldog Choke is what Carlos Newton did to Miletich. Think you're old schoolyard head lock, but done properly as a choke. If you catch it at the right time it's all over.
