You can't base everything off results, but I don't think I've ever seen a prayer/Jones guillotine in high level grappling. Maybe 1 or 2. I've seen dozens of high-elobw guillotines at the highest levels of grappling and MMA.
The high elbow guillotine takes less muscle to finish, and can generally be finished from more spots. Also, the lifted elbow/forearm blocks their shoulder from driving into you and flattening you out, so once the elbow lifts is basically impossible to stop.
"Dontch listen to datch guy, he's a white beltch!"
What doesn Jones guillotine look like? Was it just in a ufc? My computer blew out a couple weeks ago, is there youtube links?
I know the high elbow (marcelotine), low elbow, traditional arm in, 10 finger guillotine and this sgrip variations one of my students keep making people go unconcious using. Whats different between the Jones one?
Marcelo landed that guillotine on every high level player, he lands it and can finish it from every position including bottom side control. Thats why its called a Marcelotine can Jones do that with his?
I dont know this guy, but I'm pretty sure it's the same choke. Mckenzitine.

Dont you just take your free arm and reach it far over my back to defend that? Thats why you pop the elbow over the shoulder with the high elbow version is to stop that defense.
Does jones finish from mount?
Hard to go wrong with a Marcelotine
For the first time in my life, I am at a loss for words...Quote:

It's been used successfully by all belts at the NoGi Worlds and at ADCC by plenty of grapplers not named Marcelo Garcia.Quote:

You still see some arm-in guillotines and other guillotine variations, especially in MMA, but in NoGi grappling these days it's almost all high-elbow the higher the level gets.
