| Chapter: | Defense against Side Control |
| Move: | Escape when he tries to get mount |
 This move is used when
your opponent has side control on you and attempts to get mount.
|
 Your opponent puts his
knee on your stomach which is a basic entry for obtaining mount.
|
 This picture
illistrates the knee going on the stomach since it cannot be seen in the
previous picture. |
 As his knee comes
across your stomach, you will want to begin an elbow knee escape on the
other side as shown. You will want to do the escape before his knee gets
all the way across your stomach but not before it gets half way across.
|
 The idea is to get a
half guard before he obtains the mount. |
 There are many options
from here... A few ideas are.... going to his back, trying to get a full
guard or even rolling him toward his now trapped side.
ENJOY! This move can be found on page D-14 in the Fighter's Notebook. |
