Twitter brought me here. Great read! Another attack from the collar tie I didn't see mentioned are the use of sweeps which is more frequent in Muay Thai vs MMA. Watching oliveria in the clinch is special and someting I think is under utilized and not fund to train but a great tool to use.
Sweeps are 100% a great weapon that Matt Brown is one of the few in MMA to really attempt. More MMA fighters should be sweeping truly. I actually have an article about sweeps if you're interested!
