Vinny Magalhaes vs. Victor Nemkov Fight Finish Gif M-1 Challenge XXV

Wow. That was sweet. But I’ll confess, I don’t know where the gogo puts the pressure on the neck.
Usually looks like a pain tap, like it hurts the throat, but this looked to me like the pressure was pulling his head sideways and cutting the artery off, like a triangle almost. But this guy didn’t look sleepy, he looked miserable, that’s why I think he tapped. Anyone wanna hip me to what that was?

Sweet!

he did stap because of the smell of old cheese lol

A gogoplata unlike most of what we call “chokes” IS an actually choke. A choke technically, is when you cut off air supply to the brain. the moves we call “RNC”, and “triangle choke” are in all actuality, STRANGULATIONS, which is when you cut off blood flow to the brain. IT’s easier to positions your hands/arms into a choke, but it takes longer for a person to pass out do to lack of air, than it does to pass out from lack of blood to your brain. Also, chokes are much more dangerous, in that you can easily crush someone’s windpipe, which almost certainly results in death. From the top, a gogo, takes on more of a neck crank type situation, especially if, like Nemkov, your opponent turns his head.

@Hands of Stoned: It’s sweet to see but painful to feel. Gogo means throat in Portuguese and the pressure is formed on the trachea of the neck which is where the “Adam’s apple” is located. It’s a painful choke unlike the carotid artery chokes i.e rear naked choke or even triangle which are “painless” chokes because with those you just cut off oxygen supply to the brain and that’s what makes you lose consciousness and go to sleep. Vinny was pulling that guy’s head on his shin bone to make it even more painful. You are correct, that guy looked miserable because he was in pain.

@Phatty
no its not.If you press the trachya(guillotine choke,gogoplata,wandy’s r*** choke :p)it cuts the air.a blood choke you need to points of pressure on each side of the necks compressing the jugular(triangle,arm traingle ,ananconda etc).With blood chokes you can breath a little bit but air chokes are considered more brtal because you cant breath at all and it hurts your neck most of the time

neck cranks should be illegal

daym a gogoplata! that is like one of the hardest bjj move to pull in an mma match.. i can recall nick diaz and shinya aoki pulling this kind of move.

@ everyone else Good looks on the clarification.

The lack of reading comprehension and understanding of basic anatomy & physiology is what’s wrong with the world today.

If you ever have to start your comment with “I’m not trying to be a troll, but…” You should probably think again about saying it.

This went from a choke to a neck crank. By turning his head to defend the choke he quickly opened up a modified and may I say nasty neck crank. He would have had to apply the gogo straight on top of him to make this a “choke” much like the positioning of an inverted triangle. He actually defended the choke but the neck crank crept up. That was a pure pain submission.

Although an inverted gogo with proper postioning wouldn’t feel to good on your trachae regardlessly it would open a more effective “choke”. Shin bone on the throat, unlike an inverted triangle is always going to hurt. A gogo is really an effective submission for choking when on your back, like Nick Diaz did to Aoki. Not all chokes are meant to lull you to sleep, especially from on top.

If you watch the fight video, you can hear the poor dude yelp like a puppy if you listen closely.

@RNS
Or i learned it in a BJJ class what alot of people who explain technics but never really learned the technic,they just watched it and repeated the commentator.
