Utilize the kimura to escape bottom side control #BJJ #JiuJitsu

[davidpixton]

Thanks, I'm currently stuck in side control, I can't get this to work on account of the phone in my hand

100% effective on training dummies and white belts who've never been on top side control before.

GSP tried this on Matt Hughes. Great way to get yourself armbarred 😂

[utarian]

Guys this is just one weapon of many to add to your arsenal. The probability of it working is extremely low but depending on what's happened before there's a chance your opponent gives some space for whatever reason, you then know it can be a possibility.

This gives the guy on top an armbar if he just spins across to the other side. A great example of this is when Matt Hughes tapped GSP with an armbar when they first fought.

You did that right, I HAD GOT CONFUSED ABOUT THE HAND LOCK❤❤

[sayville_silver]

I wish my rolling partners gave me that much room in side control

[realjaytruth]

I purposely leave my arm out to bait this on people lol. I no longer respect the kimura from bottom. Only because I am very comfortable defending. Once, they go for it, I usually go into mount because people have trouble thinking of multiple areas available. Good stuff though, you have to understand it.

As soon as he shoots that arm over for the kimura: hello head n arm triangle city!

No body in side control is going to be that loose on top of you unless they don’t know what they are doing . I guess you’d have to attempt this while they are barley getting into side control or getting up to set you up for something but most of the time they are low and heavy and aren’t on both knees . Looks cool though, I’m definitely trying this when able too it’s always cool to have new stuff in the rotation. Thanks .

This is the beauty of BJJ. Time and place for any tech. The right time, right place, this would work.

[HeeyongPark-tp]

Bruh. The kimura is literally one of the greatest moves in BJJ and all mixed martial arts in general. I consider this, the triangle choke, the guillotine, combined with some crucial freestyle wrestling taketowns to be abaolutely vital in a fight

[KG-nrcd]

I've literally done this several times it is very effective, but you have to hit it quick and hard don't hesitate

[Venlo_]

Ich kenn nicht mehr. Hab bauchscherzen vor lachen😂

[CesarMartinez-wxvl]

You said stuck, I didn’t see you stuck 😂

[Moisture]

They also can spin for the armbar if you go for the kimura grip

[knando]

The kimura has to be the most fun one to pull hahaha

[verysimple]

😂😂all these black belt jujitsu guys couldn't escape from Habib's side control though

[malenatully]

I get stuck at times when I’m rolling with big guys… I’ll try that tomorrow.. YYEEEsSSSs thank you for sharing

[wildernessrick]

People in these comments don't understand that what makes a black belt is having all of these tools available at a moments notice, and seeing the option when it presents itself.

Another unpopular fact is that if you're in bottom side control, you've already let things get pretty hard for you. Escaping isn't going to be EASY, because you allowed your opponent to establish top control. Now you have to create movement and find openings, and your first attempt probably won't be the one that gets you out.
