    No, this is where you are the one mounted, on your back, and reaching up to grab the other guy's collar.

    You pretty much never want to put your arms in that position unless you're 100% confident the other guy has never even seen an armbar.

    Anytime you are mounted and reach high you are asking for your arms to be broken.

    AHHH, that is what I thought.


    Based on the way I interpreted it, I thought someone had a good way to avoid that.

    IF you have control of his hips ( Guard), IF you have control of one of his arms ( over hook), IF you have a grib on his lapel and are able to do the choke ( slip your arm over and under) and still maintain his body close enough to controland far enough to get space to do the choke, THEN it is a viable option.

    As you can see by the qty of "ifs" it is not a high percentage move unless there is a good skill level difference.

    Well, you can't use guard to control his hips when you are mounted...

    I thought you said you were a judo black belt and had at least a year of BJJ training.

    Maybe you do, but your reading comprehension sucks

    Ah, I see the confusion in my post, sorry, my bad.

    I was trying to explain that the cross choke is only viable from the guard but my wording, like my lower intestine, was full of crap and the arm bar reference was misplaced and irrelevant., like Dale's stock shares in the "hair club for men".

    How is that a low percentage move? If you're in guard with no grips and your opponent has posture, EVERYTHING is low. Its not a bunch of "ifs" but simple and necessary prerequisites to do ANYTHING whether it be sub grappling, BJJ or MMA.

    Nahh, I own stock in Gillette...
    Mouth Boxers have not the testicular nor the spinal fortitude to be known.
    Hence they hide rather than be known as adults.
