Marcelo Garcia is one of the bjj greats. His weapon of choice was often the Guillotine with which he submitted quite a few big names. Among them are: Victor Estima, Josh Hinger, Kron Gracie, Mike Fowler, George Sotiropoulos, Keita Nakamura, Jake Shields, Rodney Ellis, Davis Heart and others.
He is also known for his butterfly guard, his arm drags, his trip takedowns, his X Guard and for his infamous North South choke.
The Guillotine Choke is incredibly powerful and effective. If your opponent applies it properly, then it’s very difficult to defend.
Many people struggle with it though. Setting it up is usually the easiest part but finishing it efficiently is the harder part.
We are very lucky to get a great breakdown of the technique from the man himself, 4X ADCC and 5x BJJ world champion Marcelo Garcia who shows you how to set it up from side control to a mounted guillotine.
