From here, he pulls himself up to the mount, trapping his opponent's arm between his elbow and body. Next, his free hand grabs the collar across the neck, with his thumb in, and he leans forward to use his body pressure to help finish the choke.

Add to Favorites 1269 Remove From Favorites 2692 days ago
From the mount, Giva gives his opponent a little room on one side to turn his body to try to escape. Giva squeezes his knees and traps him on his side, then swims his arm underneath the wrist and grabs his own lapel. The first option to finish is by simply stepping his leg behind the back and applying pressure, twisting the arm. It's likely his opponent will defend this, so his second option is to lay forward over his opponent, extending the arm as he goes belly down. Here he can put pressure with his hips to finish the straight armbar.
