Matrix Defense to Leg Drag to Side Control (Advanced)

Professor Lucas Lepri teaches a defense to the matrix position. The opponent starts to go for the matrix position by under hooking Lucas’ leg and placing his same side foot on the hip with his knee behind Lucas’. The opponent now brings his other leg over Lucas’ leg. Lucas immediately grips the top of the knee and the waist with his other hand. His other knee is brought in as he falls to the side. Lucas now pushes and goes for a leg drag. From here, Lucas now transitions to the side control position.
