Orlando inquires about what to do when his opponent forcefully retracts his arm from a 2on1 Control. Marcelo insists on keeping the Pistol Grip for as long as possible, and reaching for the Cross Arm & Belt Control when the opponent pulls away his elbow. If you do happen to lose the Pistol Grip, immediately latch onto both collars or double underhooks and launch him into the air for X-Guard or an Inverted Armbar. The lesson here is to always be a step ahead of your opponent, and snowball your slight advantage until it becomes an insurmountable dominance.
