“Sweep” Single Leg Takedown → Collar Control from Standing
2 Part Lesson — Marcelo takes down a guard puller: [I] Your best option for securing a Take-Down against an opponent who wants to Pull-Guard is the Sweep-Single Leg Takedown (aka Outside/Low Single, Swing-Single, et al.). Make your opponent circle into the direction that shortens the distance for your shot to the target, typically his lead leg in most cases. [II] If your opponent is wary of your Sweeping Single, preface the takedown by making a Collar Grip and pulling him closer before shooting onto his leg. Be prepared to immediately pass if you miss the takedown and he pulls before you can secure the leg.
