Burton sets this strangle up from standing as he waits and anticipates his opponent's attack.
Tokyo GS Champion Euan Burton shows a very fast and effective strangle, which is set up from standing.
From on top of his opponent's back Burton shows a very fast turn into Osae komi.
If Burton finds it difficult to employ his full Crocodile roll hold-down he will look to change the attack to this very interesting strangle.
