How To Escape Side Control Against A 300lbs Wrestler

Overview

The instructor demonstrates two side control escapes against a heavy, powerful wrestler. The first is a proactive defense during the pass, using an elbow peek to secure a deep underhook before the opponent establishes control. The second is a reactive escape from a tight squeeze, using a flat hand wedge and short bridges to create space for the same underhook entry.
