He had a chickenwing at one point near the end but chose to let it go and earlier he was going for an armbar but messed up and was cranking a very loose omoplata that would never work :\

Good shit fella's, I knew a few of those subs but didn't recognize them by name. But a few were brand new to me. Didn't Couture put the Brabo Choke on Van Arsdale? And the Step over Toe Hold Face-lock is a move I remember seeing in "Pro" Wrestling back in the day but the dude called it the STF.

Everytime I get somebody's back my first instinct is to lock the body triangle, and I get it rather easily even on bigger guys. Is this risky doing this or should I get the body triangle whenever possible like I have been?

I gotta training session at 1 today with a guy that trains once a week with Rich Franklin, so it oughta be a good time. 311 concert is tonight too WOOOOOOO, probably gonna be the greatest day of my life (especially if I miraculously pull a sub on Sean).

Cool man... 311 concert was cool when it was here in Houston. Didn't play a couple of songs I wanted to hear (Beautiful Disaster and Transistor) but I had a blast.

Beautiful Disaster is top notch, Transistor is probably far down my list of 311 songs though (not a bad thing because it's still a great song). I was looking at some play lists and they've played Nix Hex almost every show (personal fav), and a lot of Homebrew (another personal fav), and a lot of Omaha Stylee (another personal fav). As you can tell I like the Grassroots CD most, but I could listen to every 311 song in succession, they're hands down my favorite band.

ya dont worry about that, it wasnt a true submission, just bisping being a dumb.. well just being himself. spends too much time sipping tee and watching horrible english comedy to learn actual grappling.

Well, the Step-over is an old Catch Wrestling technique so it's not surprising that you'd find it in pro wrestling (CACC is the forfather of pro wrestling after all). There are a lot of subs from Catch that you'll find weird, watered down versions of in wrasslin that are really brutal if you apply them as they were meant to be applied (the Dragon Sleeper comes to mind... almost broke my buddy's neck with that one)

I usually try to get the body triangle if it's a bigger guy as it really fatigues them and holds them down... the downside is of course that you can't move either so you'd better have a damn good sub while your legs are gassing
I have really big, strong legs so my body triangle usually hurts like a bitch but then again I go for a neck crank at the same time.
Only thing I know for sure that you shouldn't do from the back: cross your legs! If your opponent is flexible enough he can get a nasty ankle lock on you

Darce Choke

[Kimuras"R"Us]

I like the Kimura (obviously), the Darce, and the Anaconda choke. I hit the Americana pretty frequently but it's not really my favorite I just always seem to get to a position where I can apply it rather easily. Also the armbar from the bottom Fedor landed on Coleman I love, and hit Tuesday for the first time.

[matto]

the gogo is great but hard as hell to land. unless you have very good flexability u usually have to use ur hand to grab it and you opponent is usually in a high gaurd so it involves more work.
