Nick Stiles No-Gi Match 3 at Jax BJJ Open 2009

[Nochibou1]

hey, that finishing move, where i Play, on every level, that is an illegal submission, i don't think he applied it right but what I have been told that doing that and applying body weight to their face/chin, is illegal since it can break their neck easily. Correct me if I am wrong but even my sensei told me it wasn't allowed in any kind of competition.

And I have seen your other video where nick was accussed of doing an illegal neck crank, i think this is much worst

@Nochibou1 This was an ezekiel choke, which was legal at this event (and many others, but also illegal at some) The pressure was across the throat on this particular one, which admittedly is not as clean as applying pressure to the sides of the neck, which is the way Nick usually does it. If Nick had put his hand or body weight across the face or forehead rather than the neck and applied pressure it would have been an illegal neck crank (and Nick was hurt in one of those in one of his losses)

Good fight, possibly the hardest of the three, but once Nick turned and mounted his opponent after a minute he moved swiftly to the submission. He is a class act, a refined fighting machine!
