Smash Pass Defense to Collar Drag Variation when Opponent Stands Up (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. The opponent stands up and starts to pass to the side. Lucas spins on his knee so he can follow and face the opponent. In this scenario, Lucas collar drags the opponent while the opponent is standing up. As he collar drags, he places his foot on the opponent’s to block. Once the opponent falls, Lucas takes the back from here.
