BEC RAWLINGS
Knee compression submission
PHOTOS BY PAUL THATCHERAussie UFC strawweight Bec Rawlings demonstrates a set-up, to a
knee compression submission from her opponent’s butterfly guard.
To describe this submission best, one that is more popular
throughout Sambo circles than jiu-jitsu, Bec says to imagine a piece
of wood shoved between a door hinge and you close the door — that’s
what it does to the knee. Ouch! Be careful with your training partner’s
— Bec usually sits on the floor rather than the leg to be a little nicer to
her training partners while drilling.Rawlings then takes wrist control as her
opponent attempts to gain underhooks,
and applies downward pressure, while
she prepares to post up.96 | FIGHT TRAINING GUIDE fightaustralia.com.au
