Thanx so much, Josh! Aint it hilarious how everyone wants to refer to this as some kinda bjj move like "modified anaconda choke" etc? Matt Hughes said himself that this was an old wrestling move. I certainly appreciate you breaking this down and also covering this on your Punishing Rides DVD. War Catch Wrestling!
Very interesting, really calls to mind footage of the great Fadzaev. The head placement is an interesting detail that I guess I've gotten wrong in my attempts to utilize the choke. Thanks a lot, Josh.
Barnett and Overeem would both wreck the UFC Heavyweight division. Plus, I want to see Josh destroy Nogueira in a rubber match. It sucks they didn't get to fight again.
I wish MMA were more like Pro wrestling, in that there could be a match every week. (Obviously, I know that with fighting, it takes months of preparation, etc.) But, I wish I could see Josh beat the shit out of people on a weekly basis.
Josh is one of the most underrated fighters in the game. His submission prowess is unmatched and I have full confidence that he would either be the champion or fight for the title in the UFC.
I'd love to see a breakdown of the figure four Mark Schultz used on that Turkish guy

Mechanics look like a cross between an (inverted) arm triangle and a clock choke. This looks extremely useful.

I'm currently wrestling for my high school, and I was wondering if this is legal in freestyle wrestling in Canada?

@spongemann57 No idea. I would consult officials there but chances are, as it is a choke, it isn't...if they catch you ;-)

I saw Josh attempt this on Big Nog in their first fight.

Nicely broken down. Josh has always been one of my favorite fighters. His Sim on punishing the guard is also worth checking out.
