Sonny Brown's video: No-Gi Ezekiel Choke - Alexey Oleynik Breakdown shorts

A Breakdown of the no-gi Ezekial chokes with a focus on "The Boa Constrictor" Alexey Oleynik. He has won over four decades of MMA competition, including a dozen Ezekiel chokes! The Ezekiel choke comes from judo, called the Sode Guruma Jime, which means sleeve wheel constriction and is usually performed by grabbing the sleeve of the gi. It got its name in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu after Brazilian Judoka Ezequiel Paraguassú often used it. In no-gi, it will essentially be set up as a front naked choke, with your arm behind the opponent's head and your bicep blocking the carotid artery on one side. Alexey will help expose the opponent's neck by using his chin to turn their face away. You then grab your own bicep on the other side and look to punch your fist underneath the opponent's chin to compress the carotid artery on the other side and inevitably some of their tracheae also. It's a choke that can be hit from positons where not many other choking opportunities are available, like from inside someone's closed guard. Alexey Oleynik famously used it in the UFC while he was mounted. A fun one to play around with! 📻 ᴛʜᴇ ꜱᴏɴɴʏ ʙʀᴏᴡɴ ʙʀᴇᴀᴋᴅᴏᴡɴ 📻 Website: http://www.sonnybrown.net Instagram: https://bit.ly/3yMV9HL Facebook: http://www.fb.me/sonnybrown Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/sonnybrown
