Is this the first time you've seen this in MMA?

Is it a choke or joint manipulation?

It's like an arm triangle choke from the bottom but you're squeezing with an arm and a leg, discovered it like a week ago.
 
There was one on a bellator card recently wasn't there?
 
that karate guy who lays on people from Bellator pulled it off.
 
Head/arm choke, like an arm triangle


Just looks strange because the ensnarement is laced differently

Choke as the name implies. Its happened a few times. Hard as fuck to get tho
 
Saw this on some video but never I a fight
 
Another YouTube move that doesn’t work in real combat

I think his arm position caused it to fail. He had it locked in, but dude had enough room to just wait out the round.

I don’t think he was trying to fight out of it, Saldana was gassed after the first. Like you said, he just kind of rhode out the round.
 
Lucky did not catch a sharp elbow in his face in that position. But if it is tight opponent will be trying to create space not throw and elbow allowing tighter squeeze.
 
That was a new one on me.

Is it like a gogo but choking with 1 arm and leg?
