Sweeping is an easy way to score points in a MMA fight or in a grappling match. A personal preference for myself is sweeps starting from the closed guard. Believe it or not, a high percentage sweep for me is the basic scissor sweep. If done at the correct time and speed, it is devastating.
Here are 3 sweeps from guard. I’ve actually tried the elevator sweep the first time earlier tonight rolling, it’s a great sweep. Still getting the details down, but I suggest you try these out. Incorporate these sweeps in your game.
