Kurt Osiander Move of the Week - Closed Guard Sweep

[jamiegee123]

keep making these !people do watch them !!!

[julianfolkBJJ]

Clay Guida's long lost brother?

[scnarb]

Awesome sweep, I use a variation of that in no gi (which is pretty much all I do as an mma fighter).

[avanthalfgarde]

Interesting sweep, is it legal in competition?

[TheScamr]

@avanthalfgarde It is legal, but you CANNOT grab the pant leg with your fingers inside the pant leg. You can use a pistol grip or a pocket grip or you could grab the ankle outright.

This is more to protect yourself from breaking your own fingers than anything you are going to do to your opponent.

[avanthalfgarde]

@TheScamr Ah okay, thanks!

[dise138]

do you put the left foot on the floor or the opponents hip?

[imitchellgill]

Great technique, good instruction and a ton of personality. I love this guy!

Thanks for the posts. It's really helping me improve.

[2dominate]

[mrcubanczyk80]

Kurt you are ''the beast'' !!!!!! 

[dalion82]

1:03 "The referee is not gonna see that" lol. I love watchin his vids, always funny and they always work.

[Kenlac92]

"The whole time the guy is in your guard, he should be harassed"

Honestly, one of the most helpful tips I've ever gotten regarding the use of the guard. Definitely a key aspect. Far too often have I stalled while in guard, thinking I had control, therefore allowing the opponent to reclaim the control.

[ktongi]

So easy a caveman can do it.

[kpop427]

He looks like cray guida...

[lpflyer88]

Wow, this adds a whole new element to a sweep that ive been doing for a long long time. i always grab the near side pant leg and punch it to the ceiling. EXCELLENT detail Kurt!

[TheIronowl]

I watched this, went to class the next day and totally pulled this off on my sparring partner. Thanks for a rad move of the week.

[sasquatch989]

Nice, the drummer from the muppets got a black belt

[bretlynn]

I swear to god, if I get one of my fingers broken because someone can't lose the friggin rubber band around their wrist to train, there will be blood. great sweep tho

[GrapplersPlanet]

@bretlynn not sure i really understand your comment bro...

[bretlynn]

@GrapplersPlanet they are wearing those wrist bands that are suddenly popular among the jiu-jitsu crowd for some reason

[Tito74]

@bretlynn What brand wrist bands?
