Most Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu athletes and coaches would argue that the most dominant position in Jiu-Jitsu is the back control. And that, subsequently, the most dominant submission is the Rear Naked Choke… Except Roger Gracie.
For Roger, the most dominant submission is the Cross Collar Choke from the Mount. And it’s superior to the Rear Naked Choke.
Why? He explained in a recent Lex Fridman Podcast episode:
Because, the Cross Collar Choke from the Mount, the moment you put both hands on my neck… Your arms need to be very close to your body to attack. And that means that there’s very little space between us.
So, that means that there’s very little space for you to work on your escape.And the moment you cannot bridge – supposing that the person has a good Mount, so you cannot bridge him off… What else are you gonna do?
You don’t have space to work on your defense.
Ever seen that cool move when someone switches their Knee On Belly sides and then gets to full Mount? Would you like to learn how to do that as well?
