Media Rarest/Most Exotic Submissions in the UFC/MMA (gif heavy)

[marksmen]

Exotic? What are we talking about here? lol

 

[Flex Plexico]

Cro Cop’s RNC on Barry. No hooks, no defense, no problem

I remember Pat gagging and just looking like a fish out of water

 

[Flex Plexico]

Exotic? What are we talking about here? lol

lol

[marksmen]

Love these threads - they tend to reoccur every few months though.

Electric chair isn’t a submission though; it’s used for control and transition into a potential sub or advanced position

 

[Ares Black]

I think this is one of my all-time favorite threads. So much cool shit all in one place!

 

[Flex Plexico]

awesome addition

 

[Big Tuppy Hole]

I don't even know what to call this, modified hammerlock kimura?

I'd call it grab something and bend it the wrong way in hope that it works

 

[gono btw]

So I was walking the dog the other night and started a list of rare mma submissions and was wondering if anybody wanted to help me expand/correct it


I'm not including standard versions of things like straight armbars, triangles, anaconda/brabos, guillotines, RNCs, arm triangles or heel hooks. I will include some of the preceding subs if they are applied with an interesting setup like a flying armbar...

I don't really have any criteria for submissions to qualify as rare, except for them not appearing on the list above. Not looking at any numbers/stats to help decide what's what...

these can be subs that might have not actually happened yet in mma competition, but are theoretically possible as outcomes in an mma fight, eg no collar chokes or w/e. Also includes some subs that might not still be legal in modern competition.

I'm not a bjj practitioner btw, as some of you might be able to tell. I just find submissions in general to be fascinating. Please correct me where I inevitably get things wrong

here's what I've got so far, with gifs when I can find em↓
