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

[EndlessCritic]

A ninja choke is not the same as a power guillotine. A ninja choke is basically a d'arce without the arm inside.

Anyways, tons of stuff you could have added, like Yoshiyuki Yoshida attempted a reverse omoplata against Mike Guymon.

There’s a submission I’m trying to think of that I’ve seen in MMA before but I don’t know the name for it.

It’s a counter to a RNC when the guy on the back crosses his feet. It’s like a painful compression of the guys ankles. People don’t usually tap to it but it opens people up like a can opener in full guard would.

If anyone can fill me in that would be great.

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

No spoiler/pic of your dog?! Disappoint.

aw man I gotta get one up. His name is Lego and he's a greyhound

He's totally silent and has a very low resting heart rate.

He sleeps more than a housecat and when he's not sleeping he just stands there and slowly blinks like Hank Hill

fucking gorgeous

funny how Lytle was such a slugger on the feet but had so much finesse on the mat

i think that applies to most grapplers. striking is its own thing.

agreed

ala Werdum and many others

still an interesting juxtaposition of attitudes, imo

one of the things that makes mma so interesting

Mounted gogoplata:

One of his neck cranks:

 

[Flex Plexico]

is the achilles lock different than an ankle lock?

is a toe hold a kind of ankle lock?

I get confused sometimes because there are often subs w more than one name like the keylock/americana or d'arce/brabo

also looking on Valentijn Overeem's FF, I see he won by 'Side Choke'... tf is that?

I really should start training bjj ffs
