I don't have tv. What are you talking about?
OSP caught Okami in a Von Flue choke after Okami pulled guard and attempted to sweep him. When the sweep didn't work he tried going to full guard and wrapping up a guillotine but OSP wasn't having any of it and slept him pretty quick.

You can stop it by not wrapping someone's head and letting them get side control like an idiot.

Why change it?
Are we going to go and change the name of the Kimura or D'Arce as well? Or even any other sub?

Okami, after taking a fight 2 divisions above his weightclass, decided to pull half-guard and grab the neck of a former Tennessee Volunteer Linebacker who owns every other win in UFC history by Von Flue choke... He now has more Von Flue choke submissions than every fighter in UFC history combinedI don't have tv

Was thinking the same.
TS found the perfect way to honor both Von flue the guy who put it on the map and OSP the guy most known for it.
Plenty of people have completed kimuras and D'arce chokes. Who else ever has completed a Von Preux Choke? I can't think of anyone ever....

Happens a lot in BJJ.
Von Flue got it in the UFC. Jordan Rinaldi as well.
Chad George got it in Bellator I believe. There was one very recently in OneFC. The smaller orgs has quite a number of Von Flues.
