    Anyone can escape anything just keep trying it. You control everything that happens in the fight. Remeber that

    Make sure your right leg is behind his left arm, also do the armbar with this, keep control over his arms and head with this choke, and make your triangle tight. This minimizes his options to get out to almost none.

    Some guy did this to me in a fight a week ago, but I escaped.

    He did it again, but I escaped again.

    this is a very common hold in judo…its not that easy to escape though if your opponent knows what hes doing, theres like 5 other options at least

    Good stuff. It also presents a great warning to people who use this scarf hole do keep your head as close to your opponent’s as possible otherwise this counter will nail you. 5/5

    thats sick, but heres a question, after when you have him in the lock with your legs, How would that person get out of it? Can you show a video of that?

    this really works. i tried it on a kid at my school when we were wrestling, i didnt get the cutting arm bar or even secure my legs for the figure 4, but he didnt see it coming or knew what was going. i tried to choke him with just one leg, and he got scared and immediatly tapped out

    thats a scarfhold defense, and all they have to do is tuck there head before you pry. Good work though, but you should address multiple defenses to scarf hold.
