LIKE JACARE (story and photos by Gleidson © MMA SPORTS®) |
PASSING
THE GUARD FINISHING WITH AN ANACONDA CHOKE |
| Current Strikeforce
Middleweight Champion Ronaldo Souza, widely known as “Jacare” is among
the elite middleweights in the MMA world. With a very long list of world
jiu-jitsu championships, 10 of his 13 MMA wins have come via submission.
We caught up with him for a little schooling in jiu-jitsu. |

Jacaré starts the position
dominating both legs of his opponent with his hands (1 / 2). Then throws
his right hand behind the neck of his opponent (3), advancing to his
right side while still controlling his opponents neck, hips and legs,
leaving him well glued to the floor (4/5/6/7). The position is completed
by going to the north-south position, fitting an anaconda choke (8/9/10). |
