Atos HQ black belt Ronaldo Junior teaches Basic Knee Cut & Leg Drag Guard Passes, during the 615pm Fundamentals class on 01/29/2021.
The knee cut guard pass has long been a staple for getting around someone's legs, and likely well before. The pass remains one of the passes a white belt learns in BJJ, and yet it remains as one of the highest percentage passes for black belts in competition.
The Leg Drag is a position commonly used as a way to control an opponent’s hips before advancing to a guard pass. Immobilizing your opponent’s hips is one of the most crucial elements to having a successful leg drag. In BJJ's sporting environment, the Leg Drag started being seen in its rudimentary form during the 1990’s, as an alternative to the toreando and stacking guard passes.
Mixing up both passes will give you great transitions and options to attack opponent's guard.
Ronaldo Junior received his black belt from Andre Galvao in June 2019. He is an IBJJF Pan Champion; a IBJJF Pan No-Gi Champion; a IBJJF American Nationals Champion; a 2x IBJJF World Champion (purple and brown); a 2x IBJJF Pan Champion (purple and brown); a IBJJF World No-Gi Champion (brown); and a IBJJF Pan No-Gi Champion (brown).
