Kimura from Mount - Defensive Hug Entry
Use this when the opponent desperately hugs you defensively from bottom mount, often in MMA scenarios to prevent strikes. It solves the problem of their stalling defense by breaking the rear grip and trapping the arm. The mechanism is creating a frame to pop their grip apart, then immediately tracing and controlling the exposed arm before they can recover.
