Defense

I first learned this move while training Japanese Jiu-jitsu years ago and dismissed
it after training BJJ. I thought if I guy has your back, you are done. After seeing
the famous fighter Sakuraba execute this on many opponents, I decided to ‘bring it
back’. Here, I push my opponents hands down and settle my weight to break the grip.
Once the grip is broken, I hold his wrist as shown and trap is arm with mine,
creating a ‘Kimura’ lock. Your opponent will usually turn toward you, but you can kind
of chase him around with this until you get the lock or put him on the ground, at least
he won’t be on your back anymore.
