The objective for both players is to get the inside position. No takedowns, but maintain the inside position for as long as possible. That could be inside ties, a collar tie and an inside tie, a bodylock, whatever. As long as I’m on the inside, controlling, I’m winning and I’m good.
Player B
The objective for both players is to get the inside position. No takedowns, but maintain the inside position for as long as possible. That could be inside ties, a collar tie and an inside tie, a bodylock, whatever. As long as I’m on the inside, controlling, I’m winning and I’m good.
