I know it’s not technically a rare submission but Demetrius Johnsons suplex to armbar submission is still so crazy to me that it was pulled off.
It’s rare asf
Not rare? Who the hell else is doing that? Lol that arm bar is Goat’d
He meant that technically its an armbar, but with suplex its crazy
It's called a "whiz bar" and mighty mouse invented it in practice. Yeah it's rare for sure
Mousetrap 🪤
Nick diaz putting the fireball kid into a gogoplata while off the zaza is some real legend shit.
Fuck that’s fun to say out loud
Hindu
THC metabolites cling to fat cells throughout the body and can stay detectable in blood or urine tests for several weeks. He wasn't intoxicated at all during the fight. I'd still be a stoner today if so many of them didn't spout ignorant bullshit like your comment.
@@djhenyo i mean it was a joke but ok.
Yah lol, looks like u might need to lighten up and lighten up
Impressively, the Scorpion Crunch actually did happen again in Bellator in 2020. Monika Chochlikova hit one on her PROFESSIONAL DEBUT against Jade Jorand at Bellator 247. Such a crazy submission.
Wow!
The fact that I knew about this and MMA On Point didn't is baffling to me!
Came here to say this too. Couldn't remember the names but I knew it was a chick making her debut
I had a friend make me tap from a seatbelt position by squeezing my midsection like that. It was nuts
I remember watching when "Gamebred" got caught in that insane inverted triangle, everyone was like wtf was that!?? (since nobody had ever saw anything like it before) It's still one of my all time fav's. Just nasty💯
Chonan's heal hook was crazy, not just because it worked, but it worked immediately in a fight he was going to take the L if he didn't do something fast.
He was winning.
@@piotrd7355 Wasn't he down on the score cards? Maybe my Pride memory isn't good, as it was a long time ago.
@@huckleberryharrison6248 Its weird because many say Chonan was down, others say he was winning but most can agree the fight was competitive up to that point.
@@madgavin7568 Any way you cut it, he pulled it off.
@@huckleberryharrison6248 Yep, even after seeing prime Silva in action it still seems unbelievable that he lost to Ryo Chonan and Daiju Takase of all people. Methinks he was way better in a cage than he was in a ring. He levelled up so fast from 2004 to 2006.
In a past life, the Von Flue/OSP shoulder choke and Ezekiel choke might have made this list, but instead are signatures for OSP and The Boa Constrictor.
You know it’s a crazy submission when you have to tell the ref “He’s tapping” 😂
Ive never seen that upside triangle on Masvidal. Bro looked like he died that was actually scary
Was saying the same thing
How white his face is compared to the rest of his body is nuts.
Aoki landed one on Hansen just before nick finished top ranked Gomi 2:50 he finished another totaling a pair of hit gogos inside 24 months. What a monster
I think the Aoki one from mount is a bit more impressive
@@Judoninja10 yeah that’s the 2nd one I referenced. To be fair to Tommy, nicks is arguably the most important gogo hit considering circumstances. But the aoki one was the first I’ve seen in real time so it always stuck with me
I'm shocked the mounted gogoplata from Shinya Aoki vs Katsuhiko Nagata during the Dream 2 wasn't on the list. It was nutz to see when it happened! I haven't seen another mounted gogoplata before or since.
I got it in a BJJ roll but I transitioned to my back to finish it
“Taken to the upside down, Chrissy wake up, I don’t like this” in Tommy’s deadpan voice is absolutely hilarious
Jesus Christ is the truth reach out, nothing but respect
@@ElegyVio what?
Preach Brother 🙏🙏🙏🙏@@ElegyVio
Video idea. Weight classes with the most missed weight. (Total pounds missed)
Tommy would die
I'd put money on FW or LW for sure
You got it homie
13:00 the way he just yeets his body off 😭
absolutely launched him
Shit had me crying
This rapid fire format is awesome. Keep up the excellent quality Tommy. This is G.O.A.T level content creation 👏👏👏
The last one was recreated by slovak muaythai fighter Monika Chochlikova in her debut in MMA in Belattor a few years back
Nah that standing inverted triangle choke was crazy 😮
I will thank caposas corner for showing all of these indie mma submissions to a larger audience. I never knew some of these were real. The buggy choke is probably my new favorite submissions.
The hammerlock is a fairly common technique in collegiate wrestling, although depending on which part of the country you're in, it will sometimes be called a "Gable cable."
Got put in one my first year of wrestling… worst fucking pain I’ve ever felt in my damn life😂
at my gym its called the "Cop lock" as its basically what a cop tries to do with little technique ahaha so if you get caught with it you'll get some shit for it
OH god I remember the first time I got put in a Gable Cable. I was wrestling all phase in hs, It was bad. Only two moves I was more afraid of was the death grip and being put in a twister.
Best video you guys had in a while, very good, thanks to all who contributed making this, especially caposa
The calf slicer thingy Dolidze beat Hermansson with, should've been here just because of the sheer wtf-factor
it was a tko from strikes not a submission
@@theoriginalmoosepuff i know, but it was still nice enough to deserve a mention. And if you take a look at his face when he tried to turn out of it, the tap wasn't too far away
@@HysjMysj No tap came so ultimately it wasn't a sub. Make it more for a list of rare finishing positions.
@@madgavin7568 completely agree! I'm still pretty fucking impressed by it tho
@@HysjMysj i've seen a match that ended with a calf slicer submission.
The banana split was a move I tried to use in wrestling for three years. Never got it in competition because it’s pretty risky but when I hit it in practice omg. I should also say that I learned about it when the coach used it on me to knocked me down a few pegs so I know how much it hurts lol
As the victim of a Banana Split, you are Satan incarnate. Use your power wisely, my friend.
the banana split:
the crackback of grappling lol
As a wrestling fan, it always warms my heart seeing that Boston Crab actually work to win an MMA fight.
....Now all we gotta see is an MMA fight end in a Sharpshooter or a Figure-Four Leg Lock.
It didn't, was so fake I cant believe you think its real
@@ElGuatequero You try getting your legs stretched back while someone is literally sitting all their weight on you
@@ElGuatequero And while I'm on the subject, there is a difference. If you look closely, the dude is LITERALLY on his opponent's back, putting weight on him making it harder to reverse. It's highly unlikely you'd be able to crawl away to safety.
What a regular Boston Crab looks like in pro wrestling is the wrestler merely squatting down and not applying any pressure to the lower back whatsoever. This allows for the reversing by the opponent to be done much easier.
....and before you or anyone asks. I know pro wrestling is fake and/or scripted and/or chereographed. It's not a big deal. Get over it.
@@RazorChampion99 Yep a Boston Crab used for real is no joke and there's no way you get away from it once actual pressure is applied. Me and two friends tried it out on each other when we were kids and it fucking hurt. The obvious part is that it feels like your spine is about to snap. The not obvious part was when all that pressure on my back seemed to go to my face and felt like my cheeks were about to explode. Fun times.
Thank you for putting these on Spotify 🙏
My friend got me in the scorpion crunch a backyard rolling session. We both didn't know what it was but he could see I was struggling with his awkwardly placed body triangle (I was very thin and unfit). It was really cool to see it happen on a professional stage
i love knowing super obscure subs, so when i roll with friends who don’t practice bjj a lot they don’t know what the fuck i’m doing until they start to feel it lmao
I love that gogoplata sub by nick. Everything about it is baddass especially the way he set it up immediately after hitting the ground
Shinya Aoki destroying Mizuto Hirota's arm with a hammerlock better be in there
Surprised Andrade standing arm triangle on Lemos wasn’t on here but great video!!
“The Pace” is my personal favorite. It’s a dope choke 👌🏽
We need more of this kind of format from you guys
Great list! Thanks for all the content!honorable mention: C.B Dollaway hit the Peruvian necktie on Jesse Taylor at UFC fight night 14.
9:07 That double crucifix with the “what now?” Head nod is priceless😂
Hope you do another rare submissions video. DJs suplex/armbar was mentioned in the comments. Another one that I love is Jeremy horns figure 4 armbar on chael sonnen, ufc 60.
The mere fact that this vid has clips from Darkplace and Scanners shows you are true men of culture. I salute you, Sirs.
I feel every fighter with a decent scramble needs to watch this
Many years ago my coach was showing me the scorpion crunch and with minimal pressure, it caused my nose to start bleeding! Brutal submission!
Fantastic video I really enjoyed it. All those submissions were so impressive I can't comprehend the level of jujitsu these guys have. I'm so glad this doesn't make it to the highest level cuz that's the level that I watch the UFC of course. The dog bone was the most horrific one in my opinion. My knee bending anyway that it shouldn't has been the biggest fear of my life ever since I could remember because of an injury I sustained growing up a few times it's just a sprained knee but still
I like the whole "build up Joke" as you literally went from the feet to the head and then to the absolutely nuttiest ones last.From Bottom to Top.
Great video!
I would add some others like Frank Mir's omoplata toe hold and the asian guy that pulled some kind of dragon sleeper
That undertaker line killed me
Imadas is so impressive I love that one and DJs flying armbar is an all-timer as well.
Oliver Enkamp also won his last fight via buggy choke back in may. Crazy sub
11:35 that tap on the face got me crying lmfao
This list was absolute gold
Hell of a video guys!! Thanks for all your effort!
Incredible video. Editing, Voice work, Music. 10/10.
Awesome video and the fact that there were 35 of them was an extra treat. Really cool
I hit a leg scissor choke at a tournament on time and I thought it was pretty sick but my opponents coaches kept saying it was a fake cheap move 🤷🏾♂️
These video essays and stuff are just the breath of fresh air this channel needed
This isn’t a video essay, this is another list video. Just because it’s not a “top 10” doesn’t make it a video essay lmao
8:34 I call the Farmaconda. Hands down the rarest choke in UFC history
The Bas lock is my personal favourite, before I started watching MMA I would do something similar in some friendly what we called in school "tap out fights" which was just some No Gi tbh, I called it the cradle and would use a judo headlock hiptoss to get it
You have no idea how long I’ve waited for this video
"Nobody tell Palhares"🤣🤣 I literally choked on a bite of my dinner. Golden bro
I needed to pause the buggy choke for a good 10 seconds to figure out who was what limbs and after figuring that out its actually ridiculous. There is actually zero escape, its impressive enough that you could catch someone in there.
Forgot to mention the Von Flue choke, which is antidote to a guillotine choke, by Jason Von Flue at UFC Fight Night 3.
That Ahmed/Ammar combination calve slicer/RNC was pure poetry. Wonder which one he actually submitted to
Believe me idk either loll
The only thing i'm sure of he was in a lot of pain.
I went to high school with Kenny Robertson. That's awesome you included him! I was hoping his sub would be on here.
Diaz vs Gomi 🔥🔥🔥 That rib crush is hilarious 😂 i always thought that would suck when I watched Golden Eye
I was hoping to see RDR's submission of Bigdash on this list. It was pretty wild.
Thanks guys, Loved it.
Definitely need a part 2 of this vid
The walls of Jericho is the most savage maneuver ever used😂😂
LMFAO I choked on my bong cause I started loving when mad Mclovin popped on the screen hahahahahahaha that was hilarious you guys really know to put the cherry on top of every video as they say "always on point"
"The Undertaker and he's not real" my mind automatically flashed to the Undertaker with Edge in The Hells Gate at Wrestlemania like the mark that i am...good job Tommy!
6:49 I remember I learned this from a Josh Barnett instructional where he called it the reverse outside toehold, it’s currently my favorite submission from top side control
It was also used by old school pro wrestlers like dean & Joe Malenko. They were trained by pro and CATCH WRESTLING great Karl Gotch.
@@tichtran8792 the malenko bros are savages from what I hear my current coach is trying to bring them in for a seminar
@@austiny6539 A seminar in MMA, pro wrestling, or grappling/ catch wrestling?!
@@tichtran8792 catch wrestling my coach in question is a catch wrestling/ sambo guy
@@austiny6539did he ever get them?
Boston crabs can be the most brutal finished subs. Double knee dislocation and possible broken ankles/feet
I still remember my older brother trying all different wrestling moves on me from WWF. We never hurt each other on purpose anyways. like the time we went jumping off the roof in the huge snow pile we made and he always asked me to go first. Guess that's what's little brother's are for lol. Some great moves in this video I didn't even know it was possible.
lol.... Memories...
Yes because they are smaller and weaker and little shits, which must be taken advantage of!
@@phineasgage8252 shure sounds like you got some issues
I play wrestled a little, but I actually powerbombed one kid because he was being a prick. Gave him a little tummy punch, pushed his head down and sent him for a ride 😂. I almost feel bad now but he became a menace for a while after that. He needed more powerbombs I guess 😂
@@blitheringrando1410 hahaha 😆
I love your commentary Tommy
Awesome list. This is the best rare subs list on TH-cam!! 🤪👍
I’ve actually trained with Ken Jackson and his twin brother Mike. Both are doing great and opening up their own gym from what I know
Haven’t seen the video yet, but I love it 💪💪💪💪
That hip crank was crazy
Fantastic list
I liked how you guys mentioned caposa cuz my guy really is a god!
Great vid! And yeah, that was definitely a hammerlock. Common move in pro-wrestling. Which is funny because you followed that finish up with the Boston crab finish
I would've included Aoki's spinning clinch arm break thing but maybe thats more common than i know
Knowing that you could break every limb on a human body must be quite humbling
"Like he's trying to pull a chicken leg out of a rotisserie" 😂🤣
You what I never understood…a technical submission is when a fighter is rendered unconscious, and a submission is after a tap and the ref steps in, but a TKO is when the ref steps in and a knockout is when someone’s OUT properly. Weird🤷🏻♂️
Who’s ever idea it was to put a shiny psyduck on the screen when he said rare is a fucking legend
Honestly one of my favorites to do the Peruvian necktie it's happed but it's one of the more rare ones
To those who care, hello and have a good day!❤👋
You too, my friend - thank you very much. ❤️
bless your heart Dude Guy
You too homie
Hell yeah same to y’all
You as well, yeah?
I guess this maybe isn't 'rare' but i'm pretty sure it's the only in the UFC, frank mir vs pete williams with his nasty elbow crank / shoulder lock, it was coined the Mir lock after the fight too.
In regards to the buggy choke, there's a video of the tenth planet guys having a roll, and, apparently, you can counter a buggy choke with another buggy choke if you're flexible enough.
"He should have finished Coleman with it" - LOL
Just ... DAMN. I was on Sherdog a few months back asking for examples of the rarest subs anyone could remember. This video HITS IT! I'll have to watch it a few times to really get a few picks of my favs.
Hell yea this videos dope 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
"whole lot of not very fun" may be my favorite phrase now lol
That list was amazing.
The “Passion Lock” is brutally beautiful. What a submission.
The "Passion Lock" or the "Chicken Wing" was extremely popular amongst my siblings in our bedroom brawls.
🤣🤣
That submission by Hughes was rare but his most impressive was the armbar against GSP
Welcome to the new age of buggy chokes and leg locks! S/o Tommy Toehold for loving toes! 😂
This video was unintentionally the funny shit I’ve seen all week
"Thing go squeezy on neck"
I fking love it.
Ahmed vs Ammar choke is something I did in jiujitsu (japanese) it was originally a hair pull but thats not too nice. Also the last sub is something I did to my friends when wrestling.
Best list yet
I’m imagining showing up to class and trying that last sub.
The hell id probably receive afterwords
I remember Luke Rockhold subbing Tim Boetsch with a inverted triangle Kimura combo.. that shit was wild
p.s: Tim Boetsch has been subbed by 3 different Kimura variations, (the above), Phil Davis subbing Tim in a sort of behind the back Kimura and Jacare subbing Tim with a regular Kimura
That choke + calf slicer didn't exactly look like Lou Thesz was doing it but we're pretty close to an stf there
Ezekiel Choke super practical i was mind blown how obvious and original it was.
Awesome list
