Frank Mir blew my mind when he snared Brock Lesnar with a SPINNING SPLITS BREAK DANCING THING that he must have picked up at Jackie Chan Camp. He sunk in a knee bar, won the fight, and took a bow like it was a Broadway curtain call.
BLEW. MY. MIND.
Ever since that UFC 81 fight, I've been obsessed with finding creative ways of doing BJJ knee bars.
But I'm a fight choreographer, which means I get to use more than just my body - I get to use PROPS!
ANY props I want!
Want to have some fun?
Join me in Canada on this snowy December morning as I explore creative ways to do knee bars with the most Canadian prop ever - a hockey stick that I found in a snowbank down the street!
Since my grappling dummy of a partner can't stand up, we're going to skip the kneebar entry and focus on how to finish the BJJ submission with the hockey stick.
Let's see if we can take Frank Mir's finish over Brock Lesnar and John Wick-ify the ending. Creative BJJ fight choreography is a rare thing and I'm determined to do my part to make it a more common component of screen & stage combat.
Grab a cup of hot chocolate and join me as I take inspiration from the most memorable knee bar finish in UFC history and create some Jackie Chan style fight choreography magic.
