Single Leg Defense / Counter to Butterfly Guard Sweep (Intermediate)

Professor Lucas Lepri teaches how to defend from the single leg takedown by countering it with a butterfly sweep. The opponent goes for the single leg attack and Lucas immediately grips the bottom sleeve and the opponent’s belt by the side. Lucas now drops on his knee and uses his other leg to sweep the opponent over. From here, Lucas can go for a knee cut or change his base to pass.
