Anaconda choke

[midgetwithstrapon]

dickless guys chose to fight

[Impulz89]

he sounds like "The Rock"

[greensnakeeyes93]

he like to throw some knees and dick its very important to do it hard as possible with a strong base on the back of his neck....sooooo g a y he wants to shove his hand through

[gerijima]

すげえ！(*'ω' *)

[macheetah49]

Is that Dennis Kang?

[yehhdiggnigg]

im practicing this at my next jiu jitsu class. i always wanted to master this move. Never got around to it.!

[Volcom8911]

was surprised to see it was denis kang.. hahaha

[fate241]

rad

[joe0692]

whats the difference between this and a d'arce choke?

[BillySensei]

@joe0692 d'arce choke is from the outside of the arm (Scooping arm under the armpit from the outside.) Where as the Anaconda choke is from the inside (Scooping the arm in along the neck)

[joe0692]

@BillySensei holy crap thank you

[BillySensei]

@joe0692 No worries mate

[dominicjdawson]

Knees to the headon a downed opponent! Not safe, not legal, not to be reccommended!

You should not be encouraging this.

The choke is good though.

[XxTestProfilxX]

@dominicjdawson

not legal? maybe in the ufc but there are plenthy of other organisations ;)

[BillySensei]

@dominicjdawson Many organisations allowed knees to head, especially when both opponents are grounded.

[dominicjdawson]

@BillySensei And this is what needs addressing, if we want MMA taken serioulsy we need to be avoiding situations were serious injury can happen which would resutlt in the sport being banned.

[rockleewwe]

what happens if you turn a anaconda choke into a gulitone

[BillySensei]

@rockleewwe You wouldn't transition from Anaconda to guillotine. If, how ever, you couldn't get the arm right under for what ever reason, you could switch to guillotine.

[ThleTruth]

Knees ? u trying to break their neck or what?

[R1S9S9R1]

@ThleTruth

Knees are not so bad, they can knock someone out or do damage to the skull, but it's not like it can get you seriously injured that easy. In Pride FC, knees to the head were allowed. That caused some spectacle, but no real bad injuries.

But I wouldn't do it on the streets myself though, you never know what damage it would inflict on a regular person, instead of a trained and focused martial artist.

[ThleTruth]

@R1S9S9R1 yea ive seen some brutal knees to downed opponents...but all im saying is, we should just not do it, because 1 time, someone is going to get seriously injured or killed, or paralyzed...thats just physics, and biology

[95ellington]

One thing I cant get right, When I does this It never worked as a choke, the partners all say im cranking their neck, not choking.

[pedley23]

His partner is tapping so desperately the second time!

[chp13u]

omg i love this choke :] <333 no homo

[MarcusHolly]

"It's important to shove it as deep as possible".... IS THIS A CLASS IN FISTING?

[phuongymy]

@MarcusHolly immature

[petsmart22]

@MarcusHolly good one....

[Beeeaaand]

lol in the ufc or whatever you cant do this but in alot of mma fighting it is fine

[dartonjons]

you cant do anaconda choke in ufc? or you mean knees to the heaD?

[R1S9S9R1]

@dartonjons

You can do an anaconda choke in UFC, I saw Phil Davis doing so not long ago. But knees to the head when the opponent is on the ground, that's illegal. When both fighters stand knees are allowed though.

[MrMatt2122]

u cant knee him in the head u idiot

[dartonjons]

@MrMatt2122 whoever said this is the ufc and not just street. this dude is just saying what you can do.

[DeathZero5220]

Yea, it's because it was back in the Pride FC days. Hence the knees.

[longboredking13]

I did this move in wrestling but got thrown out

[destroyer919]

@longboredking13 ya gator rolls are only allowed in freestyle and you cant choke in any form of wrestling lol

[imnotbad9]

You cant knee him in the head you noob.

LMAO

[sab101]

@imnotbad9 This video was filmed when pride was still around and denis was fighting in pride

[imnotbad9]

@sab101

but my comment was made now, hence the illegal knees.

So what i state is true.

[Yugz13]

@imnotbad9 You're the one who sounds noob now, huh ? :)

[imnotbad9]

@Yugz13

no, your reply is.

I stick by my statement "You cant knee him in the head"

this = true statement

[loss7y]

knees are illegal to the head form that position or from north south

[Juanchopepe86]

@loss7y

Yes it is.

But it could be useful in the street 1vs1.

[loss7y]

@Juanchopepe86 hmmm yea i guess but there must be another way to drop that arm

[Robopencil]

YES HE KANG!

[itdatruf]

Could you have him wear a red t-shirt please?

[19thaman79]

Is that Denis Kang?

[luan123574]

of the king

[spicychicken2121]

the guy Denis is doing the choke on owns the gym I train at.

dynamicmma (dot) com

[hywasa2]

OMG thats thats thats.... just just omg thats look brutal im gonna try that whn im gonna fight

[MrConredsX]

that should be free for all fights with no rules except using tools,no punching below belt,biting and spitting, so u can use all kinds of fighting style

[clipsryan]

It seems the differences between the anaconda and darse is the anaconda has the head in the squeezing arm and the darse uses the anaconda positioning with an arm triangle choke.

[RodrigoVanilla93]

is this the same as a darce choke?

[ufclifeordeath]

@RodrigoVanilla93 no, a darce, for example would be using your left arm and putting it under his right arm and locking up the bicep, so the anacanda and darce are basically just opposite chokes using a different arm position

[BF1]

@RodrigoVanilla93 It's actually exactly opposite of anaconda. Anaconda needs to have the opponents head pinned to their chest and darce is opponents arm to ear with big compression on the side of their neck to make it a partial neck crank as well as choke.

[dewittvercher]

@RodrigoVanilla93 no a darce choke dosent invole the rolling

[pablo8174]

wouldnt those knees be illegal in mma??

[Knoar]

@pablo8174 if by MMA u mean UFC, then yes.

[TGUNZ562]

@Knoar UFC, Strikeforce, Bellator, Shark Fights, and pretty much ANY MMA event in North America. The Unified Rules of MMA, which any respectable org in North America uses, bans knees to the head of a downed opponent. It has NOTHING to due with the UFC. Blind, ignorant UFC hate just doesn't make sense to me, SMH.

[Knoar]

@TGUNZ562 I didn't know there was a unified rules of MMA, sorry for being newb. When you originally said "wouldn't those knees be illegal in mma?" i assumed "mma" stood for mixed martial arts, not the unified rules of mma. so i answered your question the best I could, by telling you that the knees are indeed illegal in UFC.  No hostility there.

As for the last part of your comment, I'm confused. Are you accusing me of being blind, ignorant, and full of "ufc hate?" What does SMH stand for?

[riotgage]

@TGUNZ562

thats northern america, but for example in pride those are legal

[TGUNZ562]

@riotgage PRIDE went out of business 3 years ago. SMH @ people who still speak about PRIDE as if it isn't defunct or has any bearing on current MMA issues.

[tylerspangler123]

@pablo8174

he's referring to his knees from pride

[acadia1106]

Man that's just a wrestling cement mixer.

The counter is to try and do a sit out in the opposite direction, or better yet, don't shoot with your head down.

[joebarrrs]

My favorite submission

[kjayharmon]

well im in america and we cant throw knees to the head from that position

[negrete73]

amazing video... i would like to know whats the counter against it

[KRistos20x6]

@negrete73 new to the sport, but from what I understand, the victim generally tries tries to unwind the choke by rotating the opposite way as the choker. Defend the choke the same way as any other, pushing the elbow lock up over ones head, and trying to get off your back by twisting and getting onto your knees.

[markymark93]

0:17 - 0:19 thats what she said

[japas]

@markymark93

HAHA XD

[dagherpaul]

@markymark93 LMAO!~

[ThomasMin1988]

@markymark93 Ahahaaa *single live ostrich*

[markymark93]

@ThomasMin1988 wtf are you talking about

[ThomasMin1988]

@markymark93 don't you know that family guy episode where they make fun about two and a half men?

There you go: /watch?v=Y-WHfRzTNS0&feature=r­elated

@markymark93 lmoa

[harrawaydustin]

@markymark93 lmoa

[Willipson]

@markymark93 hahahahahahahaha yah shove that hand in

[zx6rtt]

I'm guessing this was back when PRIDE allowed knees to the head

those were the days.....

[butterboy24]

@zx6rtt You can still knee the shoulders.

[MitziAlbright]

how do you get that set up thoughÉ

[Adammahon1]

@MitziAlbright you usually get it from defending a takedown

[DarkGunsHBK]

four ropes ?

[frtnokr]

@DarkGunsHBK you use what you have, man..they aren't going to go to a gym with 3 just to appease nit-picky viewers(like I usually am) AND if you were watchiong the technique, you might not even notice it(like I didn't)

[MrPolskaDuma]

Setup reminds me a little bit of a guilltoine choke.

[19thaman79]

Is that Denis Kang?

[forbesfoofighters]

and a d'arce is just and inverter anaconda...

[suprchrgr70]

ahh one of my favorites

[robtfdfbvv]

That was really helpful thanks.

[Reptoyd]

you are all fags

[dirtyminded604]

You're a goof.

[psionex2320]

cant even see the other guy, dark clothes with a dark ring floor

[peacock3579]

what is the difference between a gator choke and a anaconda choke.

[WhtMike2006]

none. 10thPlanet calls it a Gator choke because they already called the figure-4 body lock from back control "The Anaconda"

[jerodirwin66]

why did the ufc cut him? he fought good competition, let him get adjusted for fuck sakes

[TerribleOne718]

@jerodirwin66 damn he got cut? that sucks, i wanted to see him win, i wonder where hes gonna fight next

[rocwiler0]

denis kang?

[sammaggard]

@rocwiler0 yes

[C0UCHL0CKED]

@rocwiler0 i think so...???

[gonzo326]

Good advice on technique, but don't most MMA venues not allow knees to an opponent not on his feet?

[GoldDeagle55]

That is usually the case, but this is an awesome self defence tactic.

[vhamp]

That all depends on what organization you're fighting in. But most American organizations (UFC, WEC, Strikeforce) do frown on knees to the head of downed opponents, soccer kicks and stomps.

[murdockqotsa]

That's why you rarely see a successful one in mma. If you do get caught by one, you must have made a big mistake. There's no reason to move that arm, since as you said knees to a downed opponent are usually illegal.

It's still pretty cool though.

[TerribleOne718]

@gonzo326 ya thats true, hes used to fighting in Japan tho, he used to be in Pride

[taekwondocanada]

Thank u Mr. Kang.

[bigmalc89]

Well...Denis didn't quite do his job last night..

[604Aron]

I like how he says " you're going to crush your own head, and this is very painful. " at 1:15. I lol'd when he said it.

UFC 105, English twat is going to get KTFO. Go Kang!

[JoeMcAv]

oops

[PhantomDruid]

Looking good, this is the same way I learned. I see alot of people doing it differently. Some people don't put the head down & to the side for the side roll. I see some people just roll onto their backs and the guys basically lying on your head, heh.

[RudeBoyRGA]

"HEY GUYS.i made a new account and i decided to show people wat mma is all about. i am a boxer and a juijitsu white belt, im going to give people a chance to see me grow as a mixed martial artist. ill be bloging and posting my training sessions and tournements, come subscribe and watch me grow as a person, watch me grow as a mixed martial artist with Renzo Gracie and Gleasons boxing gym."

[5267hampton]

this is how he will tap out michael bisping at ufc 105! GO DENIS KANG!

[BlackstarSirius]

What's keeping your opponent from continuing the roll? Can't they just keep rolling and end up in the same position you started in?

[mojavis]

your control of his arm and the choke itself really keeps people from moving. its a really sick choke

[bulldogendaa]

Yes i agree, when your in a good tight choke its hard to move, a lot harder than people tend to think.

[nigromango]

good observation well yeh tht is a counter to get the choke looser.... buut not a complete counter since ur gonna get rolled again... the anaconda choke is actually used in a flash so the opponent wont know whats happening before he starts tappin

[Islandinthesun87]

Once the arm triangle position is set in, one shoulder is isolated from his neck. If he keeps rolling, he'll give himself a neck crank.

[TheCodstarb8]

how does that guys arm get put in front of his face some 1 explain please

[McAttack1234]

wrap your arm around his tricep and push it over?

[danpats1]

this must be for the street b/c not many mma orgs allow knees to the head on the ground

[laokon]

most japanese orgs do allow them and stomps, but didn't allow elbow strikes in return

Kind regards

[rfrag93]

are u serious UFC does!

[danpats1]

no they dont

[StackLoc5O5]

@danpats1 your an idioit kid PRIDE allowed knees to the head while down but didnt allow elbows.

[danpats1]

@StackLoc5O5 Actually you're an idiot. The guy asked if mma promotions allow knees to the head. He didn't ask did they ever allow it, he asked DO they allow it. This implies present day organizations, and no major mma promotion currently allows knees on the ground. Learn to read, moron. I miss Pride and their rules, though.

[danpats1]

@StackLoc5O5 read my other comment, yes they allowed knees but they no longer exist as a promotion. no CURRENT major mma org allows knees on the ground. rumble on the rock by Icon sports was the last Ive ever heard of knees being allowed and thats b/c it was in Hawaii where they dont have a sanctioning body to enforce regulations

[bizzman22]

D'arce choke is a much nastier choke, imo.

[iLuvHardStyle]

you can learn alot by watching videos on youtube, but you also gotta try and practice what you see..it'll work if you do it correctly...those who say it doesn't work are proly just doing it wrong or they don't put much effort in it..

[joemommaonmine]

you can't learn to do it. how will you know how or when to do it? exactly.

[BHanson41]

By the time I got to Jiu Jitsu classes I was better than all but 1 white belt in my gym. Some had been training for 6 months. Knowledge is power and so is athletisism.

[BCuKno1017]

man wuts up with the dude sayin u kant learn from these i learned most of my moves from here n i`ve done all of em on sumone in a real fight

[stopyellingatme22]

to all the people who say you cant learn by watching these videos are WRONG!!! i locked in a heel hook on a guy whos black belt just by watching it done on vidoes like this

[MrDavydave77]

you can learn a lot from these videos especially at the speed they go. WHAT YOU CANT DO IS BECOME A CHAMP WITHOUT PRACTICE!!! so practice (with expert supervision) and then one day maybe you too could be in the ring.

[joemommaonmine]

YOU CAN LEARN NOTHING FROM WATCHING THESE VIDEOS! Like I said down under, just because you see it doesn't mean you trained in it in a REAL "supervision". Seek a gym like I said. Honestly there will never be a unatheltic computer poster that will rise up to "be in the ring" (common that's just wishing for a better life, but you have to make it happend. Please don't quote yourself again.

[ibrahimayad]

your very wrong, many people learn it very well just by watching videos

there are 4 different learning styles:

1 visual learners;

2 auditory learners;

3 reading/writing-preference learners;

4 kinesthetic learners or tactile learners

[joemommaonmine]

Ok..but I doubt anyone like that exits enough to learn it and "become champ" Have you ever heard of some recluse that came out of nowhere and "became champ"? Will it ever happen? No.

[ibrahimayad]

well no one comes out of no where and becomes a champ with out practice.

most people are kinesthetic learners, and they learn through practice, but i taught my self many dif moves through watching videos. but i had to do the moves before i knew i learned

i was just commenting on the part that you said no one can learn anything from watching

the moves

[DixieNormas07]

I have caught 3 people in an anaconda choke at my gym after watching this video

[dyllthechamp]

Evan Tanner pretty much did, but I guess that was back when MMA was in the dark age.

[ohmypregnanthead]

i disagree! when i'm bored at home i check out these kinda vids for new techniques, the when i'm training i try to use em on my sparrin partner, n i gotta say, its improved my ground game

[joemommaonmine]

Yeah you and the other guy didn't exactly disprove my point. How don't i know you're a short lonley person unathletic (fat) person training with a pillow? See until you ACTUALLY train, this is hillarios invalid excuse to tell you to pursuit hapiness. BTW, even if you did train that wouldn't actually make you good.

[beamoflaser]

thats denis kang

[joemommaonmine]

I find it quite hillarious if someone thinks they're going to learn a move from a youtube video. Sorry people but the only way to learn something that's hands-on is by doing hands-on.

[Darkenveloped]

Yeah cuz you got too get a good sense of the feeling, and also eventually do it in real time.

[FPR]

of course, i'm aware that if you keep choking they will die, but if its the blood flow they'll faint so you can realse them and walk away and they will not die

[FPR]

question, does this technique cuts the blood irrigation to the brain or the air, just to know while self defending, i dont want to kill someone.

[cjspierce]

blood but either way with a choke you will kill your opponent if you secure it and hold it too long. get some supervision from an expert.

[tlocke17]

i'm pretty sure it cuts off blood flow too but you won't kill them they'll be out cold after a little while

[bignamek]

Generally, they will remain unconscious for about twice the amount of time you cut of the blood flow. So, if you choked them after they went out for about 5 seconds, they'll revive in about 10, or so.

[HFC11492]

in a week or so me and my friend are having a fight. we arn't gona hit eachother in the face but body shots will happen (check out our videos and you'll see what I mean) and im gona try to get him with a flying triangle. If that fails (which im like 80% sure it will) then im gona try and get him with this.

thanks for putting up the vid guys, real helpful

[jesuscumbucket]

your videos are horrible, its like watching well, normal peoplefight. go train somewhere, theres alot of mma gyms poping up all over the country.

[HFC11492]

we would love to train at a gym...unfortunately we live in a small boring town where one will probably never open up. There was a Bjj class that was going to open up but it had to be held back.

and we are just kids having fun, chill out man.

[jesuscumbucket]

what town? imsure theres one within half an hour of there

[HFC11492]

Brookville, Pennsylvania

[jas108]

u r gay

[nervousboy1111]

who even uses chokes?? how gay use punches and guns, they r stronger and less homosexual

[00JakeR00]

Nice, looked like your partner was panicking at 1:35.

[BlackstarSirius]

Is his opponent's arm trapped in the choke, like in a Triangle Choke?

[clockworkjames]

Pretty good, I always seemed at a loss as what to do after sprawling when they go for a takedown, this is nice and a little more technical than getting their back and hooks in then trying for a choke from behind.

[mm4junkie]

is that denis kang??

[JARETL]

i believe it is

[THEBURNZINATOR]

its kimbo i think

[stuffstuff9]

fuck yeah!

i think it is!

yes it is

why yes, i believe it is

Before i learned CQB in the SAS.

I trained and learned how to fight on the streets.

All you need to learn is your "Mounts" and "Guard" perfect your basics first and you can go Toe 2 Toe with the finest.

Practice with a partner and dont be an ass and overlook your sisters as training partners, they can learn to

But be fulled with External Martial arts, Internal martial arts is still the most dangerous, and few have mastered it.

Well what about in the UFC, where you can't kick a man in the head? And I immediately thought that was Denis Kang, too.
