Former middleweight champion Chris Weidman managed to win again in the main event of UFC on Fox 25. A black-belt under Renzo Gracie and Matt Serra, he used BJJ to dispatch Kelvin Gastelum via kata-gatame. Before Gastelum could even react, he had his arm and neck dominated while striving to get to half-guard.
To better understand the finish, we recruited Lucas “Hulk” Barbosa, a two-time IBJJF no-gi world champion. He walks us through Weidman’s technique. Don’t miss it!
