Bunseog Breakdown

Defending with back to a wall, or up against a cage. 

 

  • Step 1 -  Back to a wall, opponent comes forward to strike. As their hands come up, both hands come over top of theirs and pull their guard down. 

  • Step 2 -  As you pull the hands down, step out to the right to try to escape laterally along the cage. 

  • Step 3 - RH transition to an open hand collar tie (may add in backhand on the way)

  • Step 4 - LH elbow strike to the head, then grabs the lapel and does a snap down, followed by a RH punch to the head. 

  • Step 5 - Walk them across the wall as they attempt to drive into you.  

  • Step 6 - Use the RH to frame their head up under the neck line like a ninja choke.

  • Step 7 - LH becomes a frame as they attempt to collar tie and RF knee strike.  LH blocks the knee strike. Rh pushes them back and bottomfist them in the chin with LH.

  • Step 8 - LF attempts to outside trip, then LH goes to the right side of their head and frames into them to assist the throw or to disengage.  

  • Step 9 - RF oblique kick to the knee. They drive back into you

  • Step 10 - Frame them away to the Left to escape out to the Right
