A fight is going on. I work my way to the front of the crowd to watch the action and lo! She's one of the participants.<br /><br />She had a guy who was much bigger than herself in a headlock. She took his balance and he was just helpless and she pummeled the living daylights out of his face.Rick Matzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09699550034693340637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6315333410007118561.post-4914335714403665352011-08-04T14:01:24.960-07:002011-08-04T14:01:24.960-07:00Uh, well it is both.

I see now that it could be unclear, I will change the title.Erik the Strangehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14719361294346916751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6315333410007118561.post-53274440702028732012011-08-04T11:09:50.510-07:002011-08-04T11:09:50.510-07:00Oh, so it is a throw, not a headlock application? ...Oh, so it is a throw, not a headlock application? sorry, I thought it was illustrating the subject being written about.Openhandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14744464788866986742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6315333410007118561.post-50700113255821596392011-08-04T08:31:21.556-07:002011-08-04T08:31:21.556-07:00That is Matl Sensei in the middle of a throw.

Effecting an escape would be rather simple (from what's shown), and correction of the headlock could equally be improved (with minor adjustment).Openhandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14744464788866986742noreply@blogger.com
