  • up to 0:18 i thought i was watching the wrong clip o.o

  • good video thanks :D

    all the other people f off

  • Spit out the gum, and maybe i would grand you some respect as a teacher.

  • if you have decent upper body strength like me.

    Last time a dude had me in this situation.

    I just put my hands on his side at once then rolled while pushing his off me by messing up his center of balance.

    I have stopped him from punching and the throw/roll was so quick he couldn't even get a swing in anyway.

    once we got up,I came in with massive hand punching combos to his face.

  • Very well explained, thanks !

  • Can anybody tell me why mma fighters keep saying this wont work? I train this in jkd, and yet most mma guys who see it says this escape doesnt work. I myself have not used it in reality as i prefer to stay on my feet so i was just wondering does anyone out there know any situation in which this will not work?

  • @mrperson722 good question since you sound like an experienced fighter and your sound like you do it for sport I'm gonna let you in on a secret of why this doesn't work for your situation. You yourself in a match just like me like to stay on your feet but if you do get downed this doesn't work because the other person is also experienced!!!??? they will instinct put there body down on you no experienced fighter fights from an upright position on purpose.

  • @cubone44 your answer now makes me feel an idot for not thinking bout that. The only techniques JKD teaches me for that situation is about disabling the opponant rather than getting up, so yeah an experienced guy mounts and pulls in all i know is how to injure them, dont know how to get up from there. Thanks mate, i might go ask my jkd instructor how to stand up when they arent in an upright position.

  • It's actually pretty good, & slightly more comprehensive than some of the over complex versions I've seen.

    Since most people are right-handed, it would also help to attack that side first when drilling. Takes there power punch away!

  • i actually have learned this before yay!

  • Could you not thrust your hips forward and then grab the body before hooking the foot so you dont have a second or two of punches raining down at you?

  • @k00lkane Possible, but there's more chance for them to post their leg before you get a chance to hook it.  If they feel you toss them forward, they know what's coming next if they're a fighter. After that they'll just re-establish mount.

  • my training partner ALWAYS gets me in the mount where i struggle (cos he's literally twice my size and build) am gona try this tommorow..

  • @254Blacksmith Check out the vids BRAZILLIAN JIU JITSU MOUNT ESCAPES and SIDE CONTROL ESCAPES by uchideshi. They are some of the best JiuJitsu videos on YouTube, as are all of his vids and they should help you immesuarably. Much more than this video. Happy rolling

  • Yay Gay porn

  • @ElliotWestcarrTv PFFFT coming from the guy who likes Badminton hahahha

  • @macheetah49 Coming from the guy that's just looked at my profile just to say that comment

  • You better have a strong core to do this.

  • they make it look so easy!

  • I also learned this move in my MMA class, but it is hard to pull of. You really have to bridge you're opponent hard. My favourite mount escape is first going to half guard by pushing one knee away and catch the leg. From there you can go to guard or sweep you're opponont.

  • @thoTRISTOS And obviously your an asshole who has a computer and to much time on his hands. Ya sure the positioning was kind of akwardly funny but you don't exactly get to choose how you are pinned. They were just showing how to get out of it.

  • Thank you, In my MMA fights i use similar technique, but i only manage to pull it off when I'm close to the opponent. This rocks, I will add to my training program. You can see my fights in my profile :)

  • the guy explaining reminds me of jack vale.

  • hay umm the way i get some1 off of me i use my legs to come up and come over his neck,klinch thn pull down thn all i have to do is klinch nd its a choke lol

  • @3KDragon good luck lol

  • @3KDragon good luck lol

  • nvm found it

  • Im 57kg, is it possible to get out of a situation like that versus 80/90kg?

  • @Migueel90 it is. jiu jitsu is all about leverage. personally i weigh around 65 kg and my sparring partners are all 10 to 20 kg heavier than me and this is my favorite mount escape as of yet, because of the simplicity.

  • What should I do if the dude is way heavier than me?

  • @MAYORCARDIEL do exactly that....your legs are strong enough and by trapping that arm and leg he has nothing to stop it. Remember that you dont roll to the side, roll towards your shoulder and up

  • twitter.com/ MoneyMakenLeN either way works i tend to shrimp the mount into his guard

  • Lol. "My hips are gonna thrust up" (;

  • the guy on the floor had a bonner

  • no homo

  • mma is not cool ...aint no dude bou to be sitting on my lap wtf...ef that this shiz is gay anybody got a prob with my opinion fuck YOU!

  • @newman84newman your retarded and obviously not been in a fight, much less a fight that has gone to the ground, probably because your a little bitch with no heart. also you sound homophobic. please get some education.

  • @brownstuff42

    like i said..if you got a problem with my opinion F..U..C..K...YOU :)

  • don't care about what style, combative is combative- not sport nor art. Keep it Simple, Keep it Savage is the survival mantra. Nice job of K.I.S.S.

  • i might as well join the club.......clearly

  • Simple mount escape = get over unders then arch hips and buck torwards your over.

  • really bad sweep 

  • 1:05 dude totally has a boner

  • @SpiderShane1 You clearly are 12 years old and think jokes like that are still funny.

  • @SpiderShane1 its called a groin guard u stupid fuck, get back to nursery

  • @SirRuneRange4 Yea I know, I gotta wear the sam thing everytime your mom comes around(which is often)

  • lets have sex.

  • It's a good, basic technique. But if I tried to bridge and roll without trapping his foot, and he posted a leg to stop me, he'd open himself up to a nasty groin shot. That's my problem with almost every "MMA for self-defense" or "BJJ for self-defense" video I've seen, is that they are simply demonstrating straight MMA techniques with no self-defense modification or mentality.

  • Comment removed

  • @Curatalo506 I won't lower myself by responding to your insults. Read the title of the video: "MMA Ground Fighting FOR SELF DEFENSE". It's presenting itself as a self-defense technique, not a sport fighting technique. Two years of Taekwondo? Try 5 years of Shotokan, 7 years of Hapkido, 3 years of Silat, 2 years of Jujitsu and Kenpo.

  • this is an amazing demonstration. its explained well :)

  • i still cant do it when some1 gets ontop of me im not able to get them off.

  • @gastank123456 where are you getting stuck? this all works on their body weight and movement against them

  • i cant escape when i go against this 100 kg guy soo hard all i can do is get half guard lol im 80 kg i dono what im doing against such a heavy dude lol

  • We were just re-visiting this technique at ATT. It's very effective! But I'd sometimes be rolling with much heavier partners and I would have trouble doing it.... any tips? I find it more effective to transition to butterfly guard as I throw my hips up... there's more you could do from there plus you could use extra strength for transitions with you legs.

  • @mmafighter2727 well, against very heavy opponents everything is harder, but if you in general gotta be quick, once you throw your hips up they're outta balance, no matter how heavy they are, if you let them stabilize, it will be harder to rollover.

    I'm not that big, at 180lbs and I can escape almost any mount.

  • "My hands are in front of my face, to block punches" HA!!.....that will def not work.....considering i can just punch your hands, causing you to hit youself in the face. Oh expert village, how you are trash at providing good information

  • @sarge727 thats why he said it was just for a moment until he gets that arm from the bridge. this is more of a parry anyways, the real danger would be hooks. There is no position in the mount you want to hold for very long

  • @sarge727 you're a retard, it's not that hard to block a punch, without having ur own hand hit you in the face.. i'm guessing you're never a very experienced fighter, or you're not a fighter at all

  • @sarge727 hands dampening the impact and possibly deflecting punches are def better than taking a straight blow to the face like a wuss like you prob do

  • @cheek1a2x1 What i was getting at, if you were to think outside the box is that your hands will do little to nothing to help stop/deflect/dampen a punch. You are better off using your forearms to block, it will be more effective. By holding your forearms against your head/face to protect yourself, you are effectively negating your opponents strikes.

  • this can be used as a self defence art also...u just have to be well trained and quick enough

  • I think the title of this video gives people the wrong impression, this isn't for street fighting. It's for MMA self defense, not real life situations.

  • well in combat you don't want to be on the ground anyway and what street fighter would get you with that

  • Its the little intracacies that are the key to this. Knees to the thighs and legs on the outside. All has to be done in perfect timing

  • Very well done. Thank you

  • usally expert village sucks but this one is ok

  • Bam! My brother just did this to me. Just kidding, awesome video

  • this is actually a very good escape.

  • yea its kinda like wrestling (real wrestling, not WWE), you do what you know. Every move that you do, every escape, what ever it is your doing, it needs to be and probably is going to be what you were taught.

  • This is the third variation on this escape I've seen and I t looks to be the simplest and most effective: better than the escape I usually use, which is to thrust the hips up; bridge; turn to one side; donkey kick out. only, if my opponent is light enough, I can usually throw him forward enough to escape and take his back.. then he's screwed. I will add this too my arsenal. Great job!

  • what happens in an arm bar? does the arm go against the elbow or is it some twisting movement?

  • when someone gets the armbar it bends your arm downward toward the elbow and it will snap if you don't tap or reverse

    sorry if i didn't help

    couldn't really explain

  • no its okay, but what else does the attacker do...like do i have to raise my hips too?

  • @javed86 yes, that's how you get the hyper-extension.

  • Your arm gets hyper extended at the elbow. It's all just leverage. It hurts like crazy.

  • man, if you enter mma without know any jiujitsu you are fucked... period... unless if you have fucking unbeatable takedown defense.. jiujitsu is a necessity!!

  • I fully agree!

  • @lycourisDE92 I notice Cung Le doesn't really give a fuck about BJJ once he's in the ring.

  • @lycourisDE92 Chael Sonnen doesn't do BJJ and he pretty much WOOPED Anderson Silva's ass.

  • @SpeedComesFast yeah that's cos his wrestling is world class and he can get up off his back... that's also why he got tapped out... But honestly i think wrestling will beat BJJ 9 times out of 10

  • @lycourisDE92 I disagree with that statement. Wrestling can put up it's own, but not 9 times out of 10. Wrestling only takes you far, in the aspect of MMA.

  • @SpeedComesFast The thing about wrestlers is that most learn it at an early age and bring it to MMA after several years of competition. The problem with this is that in wrestling, there are so many rules and there are no techs to deal with an opponent after he's on his back.

  • @lycourisDE92 jujitsu is not a necessity most great fighters are wrestlers and strikers, if you really want to dominate on the ground use wrestling skills, if you dont have wrestling or jujitsu skills your fucked

  • @lycourisDE92 You don't have to know jiu-jitsu to know ground game. There is also catch wrestling.

  • @lycourisDE92 i dont think so. most mma fighters rely on wrestling greco roman or freestyle

  • @lycourisDE92 Not necessarily. Our MMA gym has had 30-odd fights and lost 3 or 4. When you enter their classes they teach u BJJ, Wrestling or whatever else you may need. A lot of guys that went there didn't know anything in the beginning and they turned out OK. However I do agree that having a jiu jitsu or wrestling background would help a great deal

  • @lycourisDE92 Sambo, Pankration, and American Wrestling are all styles that give the fighter knowledge of ground fighting. Though in general, you're correct. Jiujitsu's ground focus allows the fighter a great advantage when the fight reaches the mat. However, ground focus is a double edged sword, in that your opponent will likely have a better standing game than you, leaving you at a disadvantage from the start. In my opinion, Jiujitsu is strongest when paired with wrestling/grappling.

  • @lycourisDE92 it goes both ways if you enter mma with out any stand up skills your fucked unless you have a unbeatable takedown abilty

  • I like how you trapped the elbow before rolling him. That was good form.

  • BBJ!!! nice vid

  • its BJJ

  • dmotors27: "Blah-blah-blah, ramble-ramble. Blah-blah. *more bullsh s he e t* blah blah"

  • fuck you

  • Comment removed

  • dont be retarded of course is useful dont be ignorant. i m a jiu jitsu and mma practicioner and is very useful in fights donsent matter how fast and strong he hits thats a basic escape you dont have to thing so much and is fast to set it up

  • mabe yeah but u would av to bee quick cos one blow to the head could daze u straight away, but spose there,s other moves that can prevent a first blow.

  • right... that's why bas rutten teaches this..

  • well it is, cause if you pratice enough it is going to be a reflax when being attaced this way and you will do it without thinkin about it!

  • ye u could be right

  • well, I'm sure couse i thought the same when I went on kung-fu "this is useless in a real fight", but my teacher told me: it is going to be a reflex of your body. And guess what, it's true. Now when someone is doing somthing that's to close to me on a immenent way I just handel the way I leard wy tequenics! ;-p

  • cool, well il remember not to cross u then.

  • ;-p

  • usually in a mount the guy on top puts his kneez on some part of the guy on the grounds' arms

  • yea how do you get out of that?

  • hahaha yes your hand are in front of your face to block punches....yep you gonna block A LOT punches with that kind of guard. cmon man you can't use only your palms for blocking....I've think that every one in expert village are some regular people doing stuff that they ware told to do.THERE ARE NO EXPERTS IN EXPERT VILLAGE. I saw a video bout how to do splits and stuff and the instructor that was teaching,couldn't do it.What a ROLE MODEL.

  • badass

  • i tried this on my friend and it didnt work. lol

  • do you know real jiu jitsu

  • yeah but theres a step missing in this video that i need to do, your supose to bear hug his torso and then lie on your back, and then thats where you put your hips up and do the rest, and yes im a badass mma fighter.

  • how are you going to block the fist pounding into your face with your elbows in his thighs

  • u probably dont, but u probably wont get ko from one punch, especially if u keep u head up from the ground as he did

  • well it can take anywhere from 3-15 seconds to achieve a sweep and in three seconds your openet can land at least 6 punches. and thats only in 3 seconds.

  • true, thats why mount is the best position to be in, but it takes more to ko an opponent then quick punches, i mean lesnar dosent do one punch ko when hes in mount... why would anyone else do it. but yea u got the odds against u when setting up the sweep, but keeping u head up from the ground and your chin to the chest makes u hard to ko

  • even if its not a ko youd be sore as fuck ide rather keep my hands by my head and grab an arm and bridge bidge bridge

  • hahah yeah me too

  • Okay.... If you say so. Would you like me to constructively point out what's wrong with this technique?

  • I love how you are a BJJ blackbelt seeking ExpertVillage for techniques.

    I would love to know though what you find is wrong with this technique.

    Thanks :D

  • Uh, yeah, that's exactly what I was doing. Looking to "Expert" Village for techniques. That's such an idiotic statement. Maybe I just randomly typed in "BJJ" or "MMA" to find videos to watch and I came across this train wreck.

    Keep watching these videos if you like them and find them helpful...I just think EV should do some research before they put someone on here as an "Expert".

    I personally know someone that has videos on EV. He is not even an instructor and has no business teaching.

  • I do agree that most expert here in expert village are experts in failing and posing.

    But seriously, why is the technique somewhat flawed? I wanna know so that I can use it for my game.

    Thanks :)

  • Where the hell does "Expert" Village find these people? As a BJJ blackbelt, I honestly get sick watching these people teach. Sad.

  • There's nothing wrong with this technique, smart ass!

  • The technique works what is your point Mr. BJJ black belt. If you get sick of watching these people teach then you can easily find another video.

  • i watched some vids the day before i fought this kid in my class it helped a bit i won haha

  • omfg an expertvillage video where the people know what their talking about

  • this helpedd a lot thanks

  • That's so fucking genius! I want to take Jiujitsu classes so badly!!!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • you expert village ppl are so fake.

  • new to BJJ - at class last night this move was not suggested - much more compplicated movements taught - thanks for posting - been training muay thai for 3years - im glad to learn this wicked style - had no idea i could get busted up so bad by BJJ practitioner.. ignorance aint bliss

  • why? because in a real fight the guy would just strike to the groin?

    i used the ground & pound in a high school fight and it worked great. in high school & college fights guys aren't going to strike to the groin or gouge eyes. but yeah, i guess in a life and death situation ground & pound isn't an option

  • how so?

  • Why are you morons having a debate on what MMA is???? MMA stands for MIXED MARTIAL ARTS. How self explanatory does the name have to be more then it already is!?!?!!!

  • It's a very basic escape. Hardly effective against a veteran fighter. Unless he's fatigued and not thinking clearly enough to not have his weight positioned right.

  • Jusan you have to remember this technique is probably against an unskilled fighter and is actually one of the first escapes I learned within the first 2 classes of training BJJ. With the right baiting technique I used to be able to roll alot of blue belts. Very simple and basic technique that is very effective if done properly.

  • I know that, that's why I said it's a very basic technique. Hardly effective against a Veteran fighter.

  • After seeing soo many street vid videos, this technique would work well.. haha

  • it's good!

  • I was taught this in the early 90s from a shoot fighter

  • One more thing.. This technique taught is something you'd learn the first day or so if you trained BJJ. its called "upa escape" I believe.. it is just a traditional BJJ mount escape and it works well if you can time/bait your parter right. I used to be able to transition into my opponents guard countless times when rolling/sparring. If you can get this down properly it almost never fails as an escape into guard..

  • Once fighters saw that standup alone wouldn't be the key to winning fighters trained in wrestling/grappling hence the term mixed martial arts.. Its almost impossible to see a style vs style as you must cross train to compete in NHB fights nowadays because you have to be well rounded as a fighter.. NHB history lesson is over for the night nubs..

  • I love how people say that "MMA" is a martial art when really its a mix of 2 more TMA (traditional martial art) serious people should read up on the history of NHB before posting idiotic comments because NHB was going on on in the early 1900s by the Gracies who imigrated (spelled wrong) to America.. The ONLY reason UFC was created was to prove that the Gracie's style of fighting (Brazilian Jiu Jitsu was superior to other styles) watch UFC 1-5 to see see real style vs style..

  • I admire some BJJ techniques but, I guess this one is less likely to work.

  • It works, but you have to turn, a little bit, and much better, if you help with your hands. especially, if the opponent is heavy...

  • they gonna fuck after the vid lolz...

  • All of these MMA/ Self defense videos are just recycled BJJ tapes that the Gracies produced back in the early 90s. They just call it MMA self defense because all of the noobs who watched UFC once spike started televising it. Its unreal how many tapout stickers and shirts you see in So Cal and I bet 1/2 the people have been into MMA for more than a few years. I think MMA has been played out thanks to spike and UFC's every month with shitty fight cards to sell tickets..

  • Suck Mah Dick Now

  • bbj is almost da same ting as mma, mma means mixed martial arts, and cover bigger range, u dumbass

  • "bbj is almost da same ting as mma, mma means mixed martial arts, and cover bigger range, u dumbass" BJJ and MMA almost the same?? haah BJJ is PURE grappling with no punches just submissions and chokes.. Please explain how MMA is almost the same?? MMA is a combo of BJJ and muy thai, boxing or other stand up.. MMA is not a martial art but converge of more than one traditional martial art.. You cannot say that a combo of BJJ and boxing = MMA as MMA is a martial art because its not. nice try tho

  • I spat put my fresca on My keyboard when i read that lol

  • Agree with Teddybear except you should block is leg.. classic upa escape in BJJ.. block the same side leg and arm. I just be able to be in opponents guard all the time with this tech. Quick bump up so they post and grab the arm quick and bridge over. If you cannot trap the leg and the post then you can shrimp crawl to the side and pull 1/2 guard and then work on the other side to full guard like Teddy is saying.

  • lmao... this guys a novice. First of all never block his leg. if he post out with his leg. its to easy for you to get a full mount. When he post out. leg he creats so much space. You could easly pop your knee right thru. and switch and pop your other one. and full butterfly guard. or full guard if you want.

  • lol when someone was sitting on my chest I found it much easyer to poke their eyes...I know its not as flashy as this one :/

  • even if he cant see he can still land some hard hits from mount.

  • no what meant is to push his eyes you know push his head back and put leg onto his face and hes on the ground

  • Sorry I dont understand.

  • That sounds dangerous to me, perfect setup for him to armbar you if you put your arm up in his face to push.

  • theoriticly.....yes but you didn't thought of the pain he feels when his eyes are being pushed deep in...that would make him grab my arms on instinct but if you're faster than him and push his eyes in than his head goes backwards(where the head goes there goes the body with it)than you're in the same position like in the video( execpt fingers in eye :P) but its just the easier for me like this you can do it the way like in video but takes much time and on the street those few seconds might count

  • If it works any move is good i supose, the risk of someone pulling an armbar on you during a streetfight is probably pretty minimal. Scratching someones eyes is nasty so it might very well be worth the risk.The risk of ending up on the botom of someones mount in a streetfight as a trained fighter also sounds a bit unprobable, but you never know what might happen... However dont think this move is slow, these guys are doing it in slowmotion. A good grappler can pull this move of pretty damn fast.

  • well I never thought this move is slow but hard to pull of cauze most of the people watching it are not martial artists so it is hard and slow for them to pull it off .... I just told this basic defense against this cauze if they are slow and try tu make this move in the video in a fight than they are going to end up beaten up I just told this ''eye poke'' as an alternative if the escape fails
