Geo Martinez v Fabio Passos final EBI 2

truck the world, dont ask me for shit. Geo is sheeeeting on people with that rolling kimura to the back!

Does anyone know what Fabio was doing with his free leg? In all the MTS's I've seen, the importance of controlling that free leg is emphasized. Yet, it looks like Fabio's leg is free but he tucks it under his own leg himself? Is Geo controlling it at that point? Or did Fabio not know the truck enough to roll out of it as described by Eddie? Or am I missing something as a ronin?

That is a huge mistake by Fabio, in my opinion*. He only tightened the crank by putting his free leg in there. He should have tried to roll out, or at the very least he could have tried to kick Geo's hand off of his foot.



*My opinion is a little suspect on this subject, as I've never actually been put in the truck; I think my fatty-boom-boom legs are impossible to triangle for my opponents.

He seemed unfamiliar with the position

Geo is such a monster. Constantly attacking and pressuring.

What Fabio was trying to do (and obviously it didn't work) was to use his free right leg underneath his trapped left leg to use as a backstop/brace against the downward pressure, and was possibly looking to press up to relieve pressure and somehow get his leg free.

I don't think you're getting anything wrong man.

Did Geo's truck roll twice training last night. Awesome move and control from that position. I got the calf crank once and took the back on the other guy. Is rolling into it easier than monkey grabbing the outside foot and falling back?

It should be based on his reaction. He will tell you which way to go.

Yuppp, I learned it as the terra sweep. It's awesome, just gotta watch the heel hooks so make sure to settle your weight back down and hide your feet.
