The opponent is defensive, so to expose the opponent to make a mistake, Marcelo jumps to knee on belly. Marcelo quickly switches to mount when given the opportunity.

Marcelo pinches the Head and Arm together, then sweeps using his left hook. Many times its difficult to obtain the Over/Under position, so the Head and Arm control is a great substitution.

Marcelo is in sidecontrol, then lifts the opponent's head to reveal his neck. Marcelo slips on his rear naked choke attempt, but obtains the Over/Under Seatbelt back control instead. He finishes by putting the hooks in.

Marcelo forces the opponent's back to the mat then preforms a standing pass. Marcelo pins the opponent down with his right hand, while kicking his far leg back to free his leg. He then goes to knee on belly then transitions to mount.
