I like the basic underhook and good head positioning to control against the cage. Leaves an open hand to punch and has great control. Knee the inside thighs or footstomp to coax a leg away from the cage if he has perfect leg defense(legs and heels against the cage). So lets say the near leg (underhook side) is away from the cage. From there I prefer the outside leg trip. I use 2 variations of it (on and off the cage) depending on the placement of his weight. If his weight is on the leg your trapping, then you do the standard heavy version, taking him over the trapped leg.
If his weight is on the far leg (one you don't have trapped) then I do more of a sweeping of the leg or a reap (reap from judo not reap the knee).
That was all available because his near leg was AWAY from the cage. If it weren't, and the other leg instead was away the cage which is vulnerable.. I'll do a running knee/ankle-pick along the cage. There's an awesome inside leg trip there as well, but it lands you in a posture down guard. In a 10th planet gym, that gets you tapped.. But it's a very high percentage takedown if you are not worried about his guard.
I just wanted to start it off. Someone chime in please, I'm very curious to learn more about this area of the game.
