Sweeps From Guard: MMA Techniques & Training : Basic Lockdown Sweep in MMA

[drewjew1980]

I like the first bit. Just stand up and jumping elbow the back of his head

[ragnaroffel]

I play guard in bjj, and alot of times people put their arm on my chest to escape, thats when I push it on so they loose their balance, then I start going for the back, but most of the times i don't get the back completely. just the side like showed here. I think this sweep might work good when you're halfway up on the back, cuz you can get your foot behind his, and when he pushes you back down to the guard, you can use the momentum and the hook to sweep hiM! I really hope this works ! looks gr8

[np494609]

@snowshark84 I know right?! This technique looks great! Jits is awesome cuz its about transitions, if he doesn't give you that, go for the next thing, if not, go back and start over, eventually there's a crack.

[thisfool89]

all of you saying he can just take his back are retards by taking an over hook you give the other guy an under hook and he will use that to push back into stopping you from taking his back but when pushing back into you he gives you this sweep.

god damn retards have no concept of how and over and under hook works or how to use it STFU

[np494609]

@thisfool89 LMFAO!!!!

[np494609]

@thisfool89 they are forgetting that anybody who's worth a shit is not going to just let you take their fucking back! They're facing into you, if you went for his back you would lose the position in the 1st goddamn place. hahaha

[thisfool89]

@np494609 damn retards think cuz they seen an mma fight or two they are experts obviously due to there lake of understanding how an over and under hooks work have never even been to a single wresting practice. GOD DAMN TARDS

[thisfool89]

@thisfool89 next there going to say "why didn't he just do a gogoplata from the half gard geez these guys suck" once again the only thing i can say is FUCKING TARDS

[jbone4life1]

the first part of this sweep is okay but this finish is junk, tweek it

[jarniej]

whiskey tango foxtrot

[imerk2]

THAT IS SOO SHIT

it hardly works

[bajasrfer]

what could you do if you had the underhook

[chrisah87]

@bajasrfer you would go for the back

[oopalonga]

nicely said.

[bakdjkafgs]

thats a extremly gay sweep

[stokarev]

to compl to real fight

[cits2034]

shit

[furyzftw]

The big guy needs to control his breathing.

[pchancey007]

@furyzftw Drilling and dying already! LOL

[dropouts]

these two niggas are gay!

[joshuwalong]

I cant agree more, its if it works for you

[CraigDrLazerTaylor]

I cant watch this because the dude teaching is breathing so heavy.

[jammydodger1970]

just take his back ,a lot easier

[frankrhyno]

the top person has the underhook you cant really take the back

[charcoalandpencil]

if i got that far id just get his back instead of falling back down like that

[drew369741]

well he really can't cause hes got the over hook and he would have to drop that but what you could do like if he was in half guard shrimp in and get the under hook and if he wizards and lets go just shoot your arm thumb to the head come to you side and elbow and then hop on to his back and if he want let you get in for the rear necked choke grab his wrist and turn his elbow to his head and thing swing you foot in the hole and turn over close gaurd and rean necked choke

[shanaynaygogo321]

uuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhhhhh i got a fight on saturday!! this guy that im fightin thinks hes the best when he has no expirence what so ever he says all he needs is one lucky punch im gunna kick his ass

[guitarMan672]

do you got any experience other than just watching these videos?

[ernestoraad]

lol this is crap

[NoRemorseForAnyone]

he has more of an advantage point if he mounts into his guard if he went into back or side controll it wouldnt it wouldnt be the correct way and leaving open room for the opponent to counter or put him in a worse place than gaurd

[charcoalandpencil]

marcelo garcia always jumps gap and grabs the back whenver he gets a chance. that guy culda easily just grabbed the back but yea he seems kinda slow so maybe he wont pull it off

[kramerc2]

you have side control, then back control, but decide to just roll into his guard? why?

[jeremy9813]

lol u had his back and u roll back onto ur own back? i hope u dont try to sell these things

[MMALife519]

lol is this guy on crack.... why the hell would you go for a sweep when from that position u clearly have his back...lol.. not to mention that WOULD NEVER work in a real fight..lol

[thejonnyGshow]

there where several times during that the guy in the green was open to an arm bar, that would have been much more effective than the role

[monoforraptunes]

someones not just going to keep all his weight off u like the guy in the green t shirt in this video ,someone that knows what there doing will dig a deep underhook and keep his chest on ur chest,the sweep in this video would be close to impossible to pull off against anyone who has trained even for 1 day,might work against a buddy that has never trained b4 but thats about it.

[DANIAC262]

instead of rolling him couldnt you just take his back?

[rrrrrrrrrrrrrrroo]

It would be almost impossible to get both hooks in when the opponent is on his side and your still rolling yourself. So trying for the back from that position would be un-doing the work you just did to reverse the position. Cant be greedy for a win in a position that is not secure.

[DANIAC262]

I dont think so man

[DANIAC262]

how would it be impossible?? this is coming from a wrestler not a jiu jitsu practitioner you could easily take this guys back and go for a choke or transition to another submission

[madogowned1]

i persomally prefer scissor sweep

[7echnoid]

Seriously, NO ONE gives you that amount of space and releases the pressure that much from top position in a lockdown. There is no way this would work against anyone who's even remotely skilled at grappling. Go train the whipup instead...

[bitterbotter]

This fat cunt is a waste of space!

[xxxxtrememma]

very hard to pull off against someone good. only works on ground noobs.

[iamcarpetpython]

Nice, it's like Eddie Bravo's "Twist Back" sweep, except without using double under-hooks and staying on your back(which I was unable to pull off). This looks like it will work well for me.

[grizzzler]

Also would it be that easy to get up on your side like that if your opponent was pushing his weight upon you? Your partner seemed very loose and wasn't putting any weight on you at all.

[Courter44]

You need to use the lockdown to life that leg off the ground. As you do that use your hands to attempt to lift you opponent towards your head. Scoot your butt out to the side as you do all those. It's called "The Whip Up" and if you need more info, look up Eddie Bravo as most of his half guard game he teaches is based off of this.

[grizzzler]

at 0.31 secs when you brought your leg out and got into the dogfight position couldn't you just have escaped then? Wasn't it a bit risky going back on the bottom especially back to a position where he could have easily passed your guard?
