    Unfortunately there is not one single hold that there is not an escape for. It just a matter of who is better at holding and escaping. You need to calibrate and switch the type of hold or form of control to keep the opponent frome scaping on most occasions when dealing when a better opponent.

    Great video Roberto. This solves a big problem for me. I have been trying to do this escape with the arm somewhere other than the neck which, while not impossible, has required alot of strength. The arm to the neck will make my techinque so much more effective and less tiring. Thanks.
