How did Khabib survive the guillotine?

[markg171]

Because Dustin didn't have it locked in properly, and so Khabib extracted himself out using that opening.

Seriously, what the fuck is this thread? Everybody knows Khabib is a master grappler, and you're surprised he outgrappled someone trying to grapple him?

 

[Senzo Tanaka]

He didn't have full guard. One leg was out. It would take a hell of a squeeze to get it and Dustin was already tired by that point.

Guillotines aren't blood chokes lmao

Sad thing is that most posters on this forum know less about actual fighting than you do.

Oh really white belt?

"The technique is either a type of tracheal compression restraint (wind choke) that prevents air flow to the lungs, or a blood choke depending on how it is applied. When executed from the ground, the person applying it will try to control the opponent by the hips, for instance using a closed guard. This is done to prevent the opponent from escaping the hold, and to be able to apply additional pressure by extending the hips. It is a very effective maneuver when performed correctly.

The arm is wrapped around the trachea and the hands are clasped. Pressure is applied upwards to restrict blood flow to the head, eventually causing unconsciousness and, if applied for more time, even death"

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guillotine_choke

"The choke itself can actually be either a blood choke or an air choke depending on how you are placed onto your opponent’s neck. If your forearm pressure is putting force into the wind pipes it will be an air choke and if it is placed more on the arteries you have a blood choke"

That went well for you...

Khabib has practiced getting out of that 10,000 times probably by now.

 

[kl00p]

Khabib pushed many times dustin knee away so he wasn‘t really choking khabib.

Khabib pushed many times dustin knee away so he wasn‘t really choking khabib.

The knee control was key, but he was being choked. The knee control allowed Khabib to take away Dustin's hip control which is all important. Dustin's real big miss what not transitioning to an Anaconda Choke when Khabib flopped over the 2nd time. It was right there and it would have been a wrap.

 

[Pious Augustus]

By passing Dustin's right knee and rolling to the side to loosen up the choke

 

[Alxair]

He stayed relaxed and rolled out of the choke repeatedly. Obviously he was able to do it because of his vast experience on the ground.

 

[DavidThornby]

It wasn't in deep, you could tell from the way Khabib's body language there was no danger on his part. He had just enough space to not be in any immediate danger. Also Dustin was tired, if it were the 1st round may have been a different story.

 

[in the liver]

Dom completely explained what was going on jeez

 

[Deleted member 466273]

I The amount of world-class grappling experience Khabib has is simply unmatched by other MMA fighters.

The UFC is literally filled with Olympian and World Championship grapplers.

 

[PlatinumColbyCovington]

Russian blood makes it through

 

[Portland8242]

Spoilers: guillotines aren't even blood chokes.

There's versions of both.

The version dustin had in was an air choke, not a blood one.

Please shaddap.
Name the Olympian wrestler, or world champion wrestler, in Khabib's weight class.
If you cannot do this, then sit down, and shut your mouth, and never speak to me again.
Thanks.

 

[dmwalking]

did he risk finding himself on bottom if Dustin reacted a certain kind of way?

I remember videos of Marcelo Garcia escaping guillotine chokes (but from his opponent's guard instead of half-guard) and he would jump to his hip the same kind of way.

I thought he was rolling to his back at first and was like noooo! Lol. But he bounced right back on top. Then again. By the third time I realized what he was doing. It was brilliant.

Not sure of the risk since that’s way beyond my level. It’s something I hope one of these Bjj guys does a breakdown on so I can learn it.

 

[HUGHPHUG]

He was like Jon Fitch in his prime

 

[Someoneelse]

There's versions of both.

The version dustin had in was an air choke, not a blood one.

Yeah, the correct way and the wrong way. That's why it didn't work. He was going for more of a blood choke.

 

[maxi diablo]

High elbow guillotine is no joke. You're literally crushing their wind pipe. Khabib's a a tough sob.

 

[Huligani]

How do you defend from going to sleep? Dustin had that locked in tight until his arm couldn't squeeze anymore and khabib slipped out. How did he defend that? The fight could have been over right there if Khabib went to sleep

He leaned forward so that the top of his head was directly on the mat, which in that specific position was able to alleviate the pressure. Dustin had to readjust, and when he did it was even less locked in.
