Jeff "The Snowman" Monson teaches his deadly North and south Choke

[caliindica]

He's such a fucking beast!!!!!

[schmolywar]

Having problems in the transition between putting the second hand in and lifting his head. Not enough pressure there and he pops his chin out.

[cptsquish]

like how you showed it with the arm trapped. Don't have to swim around and get rid of it. Cant wait to try this

[mredstriumph]

Jared Loughner got BUFF in prison yo.

Damn.

[atrbldangel]

[svennbreng]

[f9hunter]

Fedor vs Monson!

[crx122]

I meant almost*

[crx122]

Wtf WRIST ON WRIST? How fucking uncomfortable. Do you really wanna have your two wrist bones hitting each other, and then have that underneath the guy's head and have all your weight pressing down on that? I know this guy is good with the sub, but I'd suggest following Marcelo Garcia's guide to it. That wrist on wrist thing is plain stupid and uncomfortable. I am a brown belt in BJJ and have never had any problems getting the tap with Marcelo's method.

[thecraighi]

@crx122 i garcias method better aswell, monsons is more of a neck crank

[crx122]

@thecraighi Well I'm glad you feel the same way. Both Monson and Garcia's method has the same setup, but Garcia's method is much simpler, and just as, if not MORE effective. Marcelo is the master of the North South, and taps out black belts regularly with it, so I think he knows what he is doing. This whole wrist on wrist thing makes no sense, it is incredibly UNCOMFORTABLE having your wrist bones hitting, doesn't add any pressure, and gives them a chance to escape as you struggle cross wrists.

[crx122]

@thecraighi Check out at 21 seconds, the guy always rolls Monson over, all because he is trying to do the pointless wrist on wrist thing. Prime example of why this is a pointless step, incredibly uncomfortable, and just puts you in danger of losing the choke, and your position all together. Definitely use Marcelo's method and skip that pointless step.

[thecraighi]

@crx122 Your right, i love jeff as a fighter but i dont think he would get this as much if he wasnt built like a gorilla

[DBKK]

@thecraighi @crx122 do you guys find this works way better for monson because of his massive upper body? ive been trying this out but it doesnt seem to work for me that good im only 150 pounds. marcelos way always works though. but monsons technique still intrigues me, i just watched it again cause i was doing a few things wrong

[thecraighi]

@DBKK deffinitely because his arms are so short and hes so well built there is almost no room for you to breath as soon as he grabs a neck. Ive noticed that the choke is more to do with dropping your chest rather than squeezing like in a rear naked

[poganla123]

after watching this ive been gettin north south left and right

[ACA400]

quality instruction, quality choke. no criticism, it just needs to be said that it is a lot easier for Jeff to throw the phrase "all your weight" around while explaining the execution. lol

[mmaknockdafuckout]

how could he be racist if hes training with brazilians

[vicarious8989]

nice detailed instruction



[chrisfullofsteel]

it should be called the monson choke

[poganla123]

this technique is pure genius i used it today in sparing and i dint hav to squeeze i just pushed my shoulders down n d dude taped

[PersianPranks]

This sub is my fav

[whitewanksta12345]

[merrymint33]

Holy fuck its Kane from WWE!
