Butterfly Sweep Variation to Side Control (Intermediate)

Professor Lucas Lepri teaches how to sweep the opponent using the butterfly guard. Lucas starts with the butterfly guard and grips the opponent’s cross arm and pulls it in. Lucas now under hooks to reach for the belt. In this scenario, the opponent posts his leg out so he’ll have more leverage when he attempts to pull his arm out. Lucas takes advantage of this and under hooks the leg so he can sweep him to the side. Lucas finishes the sweep in the side control position.
