    I've never used it so don't know how effective it is, but a few times it looked like Saunders could have applied Ari's Bolt Lock.

    Awesome - Cant help hinking a few times he had his head right there and the arm through, by switching to the other side he could have easily triangled him.

    I dont' get enough mat time to try this....1st I'm sure this isn't rubber guard. This is more of an omoplata while underhooking your own leg to get more weight and control on that shoulder. It looks pretty clever along with looking pretty damn effective. Underhooking the shin seems to have put all the weight on that shoulder. Then when triangling the legs, it looks like the arm in reduced the space and allowed the triangle to have a tighter grip. The only down side to it is that you have a hand trapped as well.

    Is this something that was part of the system all along or something that he plans on including? Is it going to go off the RG path or is it an alternative path of its own?

    It is a nice option and something to think about... I lik using the paper cutter control instead of normal mission control...for i.e. lets say ur suing ur left leg and gripping it with ur right hand for mission control....I establish control then i switch to just using my left hand it kinda chokes them and leaves ur right hand open to battle thier free arm...

    I'm thinking that this variation might be applicable for me against larger opponents where you can only control one side of their body. On larger guys I usually resort to a basic overhook game or flying chill dog since I can't control their posture enough for crack head or even cross my legs for double bagger.

    It's tough to say though since Santos didn't seem to have any major defensive skills against the position. I mean he was defending but the way he kept putting his hand on the mat made me think that he wasn't too familiar with that sort of game.
