Taps: 3. Total: 468.

Tech. - continuing on with the Takedowns. Simple but good.
1. Standard grip, then move in and get right underhook and move to his side.
2. My head on his chest, pushes and off-balances him, which makes his near leg light, which I grab his pant leg and lift.
3. My right leg is behind his ankle of is other leg, stopping him and circle back for the takedown.

Tech. 2 - Double Leg counter.
1. He shoots in but has his head on the outside ( a no-no), and I go for the guillotine with my right hand.
2. He defends and pulls that arm, but I switch and shoot in with my left hand DEEP, and go for a RNC from top.

Tech. 3 - Single Leg counter.
1. He shoots in and grabs my right leg, I grab the top of his collar at top of his neck and push down on his neck.
2. I turn my right knee and put it on the mat, pull it out and come on top of his turtle.

Rolling with Black Chris, I learned: 1. He's two steps, probably a lot more than that, ahead of me; 2. I can't rest when he's on top because he's so heavy, I almost tapped from the weight distribution.

Focus:
Side Control Bottom -- 1. Prevent cross face; 2. Bridge.

Half Guard Bottom - Machado sweep; and hip out and sweep the other way (which is very similar to a Closed Guard sweep where i have his hand across my centerline and I take him the other way.)

Brown Chris says when in doubt hip out, then hip out one more time.
