Smash Pass Defense to Collar Drag to Back Take (Advanced)

Professor Lucas Lepri teaches how to defend from the smash pass and how to take the back using a collar drag. The opponent starts to pass and Lucas immediately grips the cross collar and uses his leg to hook the opponent’s. Lucas comes up on the elbow and pushes the opponent away with the collar grip and faces the opponent. He then collar drags the lapel while placing his same side foot on the opponent’s knee, to make the opponent fall. From here, Lucas then takes the back control.
