I've had my ribs broken, my arm hyper extended to the point it "popped " and my ankle dislocated...none of it hurt like the first time I got caught in a neck crank. The pressure on my jaw was so painful that I didn't even have time to think about defending it and immediately tapped. Everything Joe said is 100% accurate. Conor actually held on longer than most would for how he was defending it poorly and the fact it's Khabib of all fighters that had him caught. I could only imagine how painful that is when it's Khabib applying it. Make no mistake about it, he wanted Conor to suffer 😂

A couple points to notice. In defense to Connor he had his left arm posted because he was trying to return to a base. Khabib was locking up his legs during most of the fight. Everyone can say what they would of done different, but that choke came in quick. Second observation: you can see the beautiful technique that Khabib has that other people don't. He channels all the force from his body into one point. He even uses his head positioning to channel that energy.

[@911shan]

The reason why Connor couldn't defend with both arms is because not only is it a Fulkrum Choke, but Khabib is not in the back sitting position that was shown in that Dean Lister video. Khabib is on top of Connor with one leg of Conner tied up with his. Khabib is also pressing Connor forward with his whole body. So if Connor's left hand is fighting the choke, he is face planting into the ground with an even worse pressure from the choke. The submission was perfect by Khabib. Once he sunk it in, there was no defending against it.

[@zeroonezero6270]

Not entirely true. I did mma for 20 years. For it to be a true fulcrum choke as you call it, then Khabib will not let Connor fall completely face down. Khabib’s left arm (fulcrum) will push down and his right arm will pull up but in a wringing motion and Khabib will sit up and lean back some to lock Connor’s back out while pulling his head up. That’s what makes it a neck crank a little more than a choke.

[@kinGsaL1515]

[@zeroonezero6270]

@@kinGsaL1515 Also, I just want to point out that Khabib won’t let Connor fall face down completely. If you look closely he’s sitting on him sort of like a chair. Khabib wants to be able to lean back on the neck crank/choke while Connor’s legs are flat - So, he can wrench into it more. If Connor doesnt tap you’ll see Khabib fulcrum pulling Connor’s head up while his back will be bent like a bow and his legs trapped flat while sitting on him like a chair.

[@RocketDragons]

The "Oh he shouldn't have tapped" or "BJJ doesn't work, I'd just stand up" mentality from people who don't train is what drove me away from following MMA for a long time. I didn't train either, but my mentality was "I don't know what that feels like, and there's no way these pro fighters are going to use shit that doesn't work." so while I didn't know what was going on exactly, I didn't act like I *did* know. I started training BJJ with a friend recently, and he taught me how to do an armbar, kimura, and a rear naked choke. Not that I'm proficient with them, but when you even just *practice* this stuff, you realize that these moves are designed to do maximal damage and pain with minimal effort. An armbar can break someone's elbow with a few inches of hip movement. A kimura can pop a shoulder out with surprisingly little effort, and a rear naked choke feels fucking terrible, and the pain from it can last for days (in my case, at least), not to mention that you'll only be awake for *maybe* 10 seconds once a good choke is locked in. This ain't tai chi, kiddos.

[@bouncyblight2001]

As a blue belt in Jiu Jitsu with 10 years of experience, I can fight chokes for a while but there’s no way I could stand up or anything. The secret is to move as little as possible to preserve the oxygen in your muscles. Either grip the arm that’s choking you and pry it off or wait till they try to reset the choke to explode out of it. That’s really the only way to defend chokes, there’s more of course depending on what type of choke but still.

[@34672rr]

it was bullshit though. They showed dean lister talking about a fulcrum choke, which is legit, with his forearm on the back. Khalabeeb had his wrist on conor's shoulder, not his forearm on the back. This was conor and khalabeeb dickriding, not informative. This was not a neckcrank or a choke, it was a 'jaw crusher' which is easily defended. like tapping to a body triangle.

[@murffly]

@@34672rr It was literally the same choke/crank. Only reason it looks slightly different is because khabib's hips were blocked by the cage. Forearm still pushing hard against the backside of Connor's shoulder.

[@edwardrostron6023]

BBJ blackbelt + comedian + excellent speaker + someone that has been ringside for years worth of events = good sound bite

[@34672rr]

@@murffly I know that choke well, your forearm has to be perpendicular to the back, thus much more in skin to skin contact than just the wrist on shoulder. the way khalabeeb has it,there is not much leverage at all. it's neither a choke nor crank, as it's neither under the chin or cranking the head laterally at all. poor technique by both of them. Both a white belt level at BJJ. khalabeeb with all of his ground control, only has weak subs and KO's in the UFC

[@joeashbubemma]

How many MMA "experts" on YT, have even taken a class, much less competed in ANY kind of martial art, or combat sport like judo, wrestling, boxing, etc.? I have no love for Conor, but if you think he tapped too soon, you should be in the UFC wearing that belt.

[@tel4650]

Plus this 'tapping makes you a pussy' argument is dumb. Dan Henderson tapped out a few times and no one would ever call him weak.

[@34672rr]

got a brown belt at 10th planet SF. this was a 'jaw crusher' which is just a setup if you can't get under the chin. easily defended. It's like tapping to a body triangle. If you tap to a body triangle, you are a quitter.

[@petriusmaximus8187]

people who get punched in the face for a living & you think they scared to fall on their face GTFOH! All he had to do was atleast try

[@KnockEmmm]

Petrius Maximus : That’s not the point if he’s scared to go face first into the ground. It’s simple leverage: If Conor cannot post against the ground, Khabib is going to push him to the ground (Wrestling 101), and get an even better advantage there where Conor’s bellying out. From there, a neck crank, a RNC, or more ground and pound WITHOUT any defense is possible. Conor was done either way.

[@NobinsWorld]

Man! you guys Didn't noticed that Kabib was on Conors body.. That's why Connors left hand was down to save his body not to fall down.. The way Khabib hold Connors neck, if accidentally Connor fell down, his neck might get broken.. Just have a close look at that footage again..

Nobin's World A strong man would be able to withstand another person leaning on them like that without using their hands, I bet money Kabib would be able to in conners shoes. However, Conner was already too fucked up to try and defend that hold.

[@Pedro_Le_Chef]

@@DrBees-ms2vt no amount of physical strength could save someone from that hold. Khabib was leaning on him and had conans legs locked and the cherry on top was that he was leaning on him. Conan had no other leverage than his hand. It was over whether he taped or not, the only difference would be the damage to his jaw.

[@jasonstallone9072]

Khabib’s technique is unique. He got into a position where Conor would need hand support to sit and his body weight made it more difficult, then he puts the choke which leaves him with no chance. Other than submission or crack his jaw. Must say very clever 👍

It’s so hard to fight against khabib. There’s no recipe to counter him, he puts you in so many positions to the point where it’s impossible to counter every movement and position.

[@matthewbristow972]

He also got connor off balance and the natural reaction is to post on your arms so he.doesnt face plant the canvas with khabib on his back. If he weren't in such a precarious position his first reaction would probably be both hands on the chocking arm. That's a very funked position he had Connor in. Not only is he off balance and getting choked and having his jaw crushed, it's also very hard for him to breathe because of the way he has his body stretched backwards like that. He would be suffocating like that. Look at the way his spine is being curved backwards. He would be feeling like he can't get any air and he's suffocating in that position especially after the way he was getting a beating just before then. He definitely didn't tap prematurely. I don't think he was blacking out but definitely in pain and feeling like suffocating.
