Using De La Riva to Stand Up and Take the Opponent Down (Advanced)

Professor Lucas Lepri shows how to use the De La Riva to unbalance the opponent and stand up so he can then take the opponent down. Lucas has the De La Riva on the opponent gripping the pants and the same side collar. He uses his inside foot to push on the knee making the opponent post out. While keeping his foot on the knee, he circles his De La Riva hook under the same side leg and raises the leg with the pants grip. Lucas now stands up while maintaining the grips and then takes the opponent down.
