Eduardo pulls guard and feeds the lapel around the leg, looking for the same sweep shown in the previous technique, but this time his opponent reacts by dropping his weight and settling on his knees. Now Eduardo makes a sleeve grip, escapes his hips so he's on his side, and places his outside hook in the groin. From here he just kicks the knee away and pulls the sleeve to get to the top and finish the sweep.

From standing, Eduardo makes a grip on the collar and pulls it to him as he drops down to his guard, with both legs going underneath his opponent. The same side shin as his collar grip blocks his opponent's leg as he feeds the lapel to his other hand, wrapping up the other leg and securing a single leg grip. Now he pulls the collar and kicks his shin back to make his opponent go forward and post his hand. With his opponent's weight off him now, Eduardo can turn to his elbow and stand up with the single leg to finish the sweep.Add to Favorites 528 Remove From Favorites 2460 days ago

While keeping the same side sleeve grip, he makes a cross collar grip and pulls down heavy, as if he's hanging from the collar. From here, he drops down to grab the single leg and drives his opponent to the ground.Add to Favorites 504 Remove From Favorites 2460 days ago
When starting the fight, Saulo stresses the importance of being patient and not rushing to get the takedown. First engage with your grips, lower your level and keep your stance strong as you back your opponent down. If his opponent is standing strong and he wants to turn him instead, Saulo steps his back leg and pulls with his opposite arm, forcing his opponent to pivot. Using this kind of push, pull and spin tactic, he can dictate where the fight goes.Add to Favorites 602 Remove From Favorites 2489 days ago

Covering the takedown he was able to hit on Buchecha at ADCC, Xande begins behind his opponent from standing position with his arms wrapped around the waist, and his opponent bracing himself with his hands on the floor. With his head on one side of his opponent, Xande brings his far leg across and hooks his foot on the outside of the ankle. Next he simply falls back and rolls to the side, using his hook the same as he would for a classic hook sweep. Now he can leave his hook where it is, come up on his knee and finish in a leg drag position.Add to Favorites 805 Remove From Favorites 2628 days ago
A newer standout competitor to the Black Belt division, Nick Schrock, shows his go to takedown in a time sensitive situation. After grabbing his collar and sleeve grips, Nick stays with good posture and keeps a stiff arm with his collar grip. He steps outside and turns his opponent, feinting the outside trip, but mainly is concerned about breaking his posture. When his opponent postures up, Nick steps across to the outside of the far leg, and turns in, dropping to his knees for the seoi nage. A key detail is that he raises his elbow high to help trap the arm for the throw.Add to Favorites 738 Remove From Favorites 2632 days ago
