Final Grand Slam Osaka 2019

Watch how Ebinuma controlled Hashimoto's right arm the whole match. Once you can control that he is weak and is exposed to attacks. Ono did the same and won this way!

thank you for the key point there.

[@Heddu]

How did he do that, I want to learn

[@alphie10]

@@Heddu it comes from hours of practise, know your opponents strengths and stop them. Make the game difficult for them. For example if you watch Abe vs Maruyama...Abe knows that Maruyamas uchimata is deadly and dangerous so he doesnt let him do it, he applies pressure by being more aggressive and not allowing Maruyama to use his fav technique

[@Heddu]

@@alphie10 I meant in what way did he control his arm

[@alphie10]

@@Heddu keeping elbow up and flexed avoiding him taking a lapel grip, also see how Ebinuma uses his right hand to bring Hashimotos grip down to weaken and break it off
