Could Ronda Rousey Kick Your Azz?

Dude ...this might convince someone who doesn't train. But I'm not buying your bs today. Yes there are escapes from every move...there are several escapes from mount...doesn't mean you are not at a mechanical disadvantage. You (being armbarred) have two arms and two hands to defend. I have my same two arms and hands plus my legs to control your head and body and when done properly my core to pull against your hands/arms/grips on top of having gravity on my side to pin you down.

Well now I'm curious. Say you were locked in a good armbar. And instead of just giving up you want to try to get out of it. What would you do? What are your options?

There are several different arm bar positions, but in a typical scenario, where you're on your back and your opponent has your arm stretched out to your side and he's on his back, you would attempt to pull your arm and turn toward your opponent, driving your elbow to the ground. However, even in that scenario, if they have your arm set and are tightly controlling your body, the escape could be next to impossible, depending on your opponent. That's like asking how to get out of a rear naked choke, once it's set.

Getting out of a rear naked choke is easy as pie. Just take a quick nap.

Agreed. Pretty much the only way out of a fully set rear naked choke is to fight dirty. Pinching the living shit out of the inner thigh for example, makes most people let go in a hurry.

Basically what stanggt40 said but there are a ton of details that I won't waste typing out.

It does according to my old judo instructor. Said he snuck that one in when a judge wasn't looking.

Would be a quick way for me to hold on to the choke after you tap to make sure you go to sleep.

I'm pretty sure I could handle the pain for the 5 seconds of consciousness you have left.

Thats another one I wanted to ask about but yall beat me to it. My estimation was that the only way would be to get ahold of a weapon since you have two free hands. At that point the other guy would let go pretty quick if he knew what was good for him. Looking at it from a non competition standpoint of course. Then again, it probably wouldn't be a good idea to chokehold someone like that outside a friendly competition anyway. Too big of a risk they might have a knife somewhere

Sounds like a good way to kill someone.

More like 15, but who's counting? I just remember that story. The key is to not get in that position in the first place.

Seeing how you live in kaufman, was your judo instructor a black guy with the last name Brown?

[Gasser64]

What about eye gouging? lol

Guess you can't reach the eyes

Bring a stop watch with you and we can time it out.
