In the videos below, UFC fighters Matt Arroyo and Kenny Florian demonstrate another variety of the guillotine choke – one which emphasizes elbow placement to finish as opposed to finishing by arching the back. Check it out. And for pete’s sake, the move is pronounced “Gi-ya-teen,” and not “gill-oh-teen!”Â

Below is an excellent instructional vignette by ADCC 3rd placer Ryan “Ryangle” Hall. In it, he goes into detail about a few details on finishing triangle chokes. Worth watching if this move is a big part of your game or you want it to be.
I found this video randomly and thought it’d be a great grip to experiment with. Â Can be used with or without gi and the guy sets up a triangle/sweep combo from this grip. Â Off to experiment!
