For those of you who haven't seen this submission by Chonan against Anderson Silva in the latest Pride Shockwave. It's an awsome submission, and ill stop talking now so you can watch it Download Chonan vs Silva submission - 8.08Mb Tell us what you think!
Well yes; it was a heel hook They really aren't one of those submissions you'd think "I'll just hold on alittle longer!". Because if you do, the shin pops out of the knee!
thing with heel hooks is that when it starts hurting, its because your heel just broke. you can't wait for the pain and try to fight like an armbar, once you know its on YOU SLAM THE MAT LIKE WILDMAN that was a SLICK move by the way, but I have a video clip of a guy called Masakazu Imanari who is even better at that than leg submissions. as in, he is a god at them. subbed BJJ black belt Jorge gurgel in 39 seconds with a heel hook. unfortunately the site i got that vid from has vanished. edit- http://www.joewoodward.btinternet.co.uk/Masakazu_Imanari.zip was posted a while ago here as well, i forgot about that by none other than yuki as well
That Masakazu Imanari video link it dead now; i had to take the video down so i could upload another. I've very limited space at the moment.
How big is it? Maybe I could pop it up for a while if it's not too big. That was a sweet takedown, I'm gonna have to have a go at it tonight
Yeah that heel hook was pretty nice. I had a clip of that from another angle (you could see it better), but I already deleted it an the link doesn't work.
