Cross Grip Your Way to Anaconda Mastery Ft. Pierre-Olivier Leclerc

In this video Pierre-Olivier Leclerc shows a simple but effective anaconda choke from front headlock (opponent on elbows) and a specific grip (the cross grip) that stops his opponent rotating left or right and gives him the time to incorporate his legs into the attack and get the tap. ****************************************************************************************************** Pierre-Olivier Leclerc is a professional Canadian grappler and black belt in Jiu-Jitsu under Firas Zahabi.
