Single Leg Defense Variation to Leg Trip Takedown (Advanced)

Professor Lucas Lepri teaches how to take the opponent down after defending a single leg takedown attempt. The opponent goes for the single leg and in this scenario, Lucas is not able to control the arm. Lucas instead immediately grips the opponent’s pants and the back. He leans in to apply pressure and prevent the opponent from standing up. Lucas then steps forward and uses his foot to trap the knee as he turns the opponent and takes him down. From here, Lucas can then go to the side control.
