Has there ever been a standing one hand choke in mma?

Gotta respect the skillset when one of the best pure strikers in the sport uses his one-handed grappling ability on a former UFC HW champ

I did it once unintentionally while training, it was a one handed choke with a hip toss and I thought my partner was joking while he laid unconscious on the floor.

That was back in the day when training methods were a little less sophisticated and you expected to be punched, kicked or choked if you asked a question about either. I think I fluked it so there was no need for questions lol, only held the choke for a few seconds but the impact of the fall might've winded him.


Also, could we clarify what's being choked?
 
Everyone is aware that the main reason we haven't seen it is it's not legal right?
 
Probably not. The only one hand choke I remember is Rockhold/Bisping 1 and it was from mount position.
 
They call it the rape choke or in your case the bro choke
 
like a chokeslam? I remember when Houston Alexander did a chokeslam to Silva in UFC, that was awesome, reminded me of Kane
 
Romanov subbed a guy by pressing his forearm into the guys throat from mount.
Might've been his debut or second fight maybe.
Forearm chokes happened long ago, but are rare. Not sure if Randleman has a win by it. In my brief grappling career (as in training) I choked out some small younger guy with it too. Feels like you gotta be careful to not injure the throat.
 
My special move in a street fight is a choke slam, I don't fight professionally though cause I might kill someone

Standing - CHECK
One Hand Choke - CHECK
MMA - CHECK

What's my prize?

We used to call this rape choke, not pc. When he bitch choked Jardine and knocked him out.

We have seen it in many fights, and it’s not illegal. Pinching the trachea with your fingers is illegal. Grabbing the sides of the neck with your hands is not
