We’ve previously worked this one from mount, but it’s also valuable to know from closed guard. I appreciate that it’s a pretty low-risk maneuver. Failed attempts at triangles or armbars can result in easier guard passes for the top guy. There’s less exposure in attempting this collar choke. Also, the threat of the collar choke can set up the other submissions when the top guy defends his neck. My finishing skills need work. Apparently, I’m not alone in that. Many of the videos on this submission acknowledge that many people move away from it after not finding success. However, even with the lack of choke finishes, I’ve caught many arms by first attacking with the collar grips.
