Takedowns: Upper-Body ThrowsFiled Under: Instruction
Going for a clinch and an upper-body throw is fundamental MMA. Sometimes you can’t shoot in for leg takedowns – maybe your opponent is a great sprawler or has such a reach advantage on you that you can never quite make it into shooting distance (rule of thumb, if you can’t punch him, you can’t successfully shoot in for a takedown).
Here are a few vids on taking your opponent to the ground.
