This is why "head lock" will come in handy

A reverse head lock (MMA guy may call it guillotine choke) is used against a leg shooting. Since leg shooting is so popular in today's cage fight, I believe the "head lock" will be popular in the near future. I'm glad to see some real proof of using "head lock" in cage fight.

That was lovely.
I define internal martial art as unusual muscle recruitment and leave it at that. If my definition is incomplete, at least it is correct so far as it goes.

JW,

You'd probably like Alistair Overeem.

When he gets the guillotine on guys there's no way out.
