De La Riva Sweep to Mount Control (Intermediate)

Professor Lucas Lepri teaches how to sweep the opponent by pulling guard with the de la riva. Lucas starts by controlling the collar and the triceps on the other side. He pushes and pulls the opponent to make him step forward. Once the opponent steps forward, Lucas pulls guard and immediately goes for the de la riva hook. Instead of facing the opponent, Lucas moves to the side and places his other foot on the opponent’s hip. Lucas now pulls the opponent up and sweeps him to the side. From here, Lucas follows the opponent and lands on the mount control.
