Fedor Emelianenko - Sambo & Judo Throws, Trips & Takedown In MMA

A study & analysis of the MMA Takedowns of Fedor Emelianenko. Due to Fedors background in Judo & Sambo his takedown game was centred around the upper body clinch and consisted of outside trips, inside leg trips, knee blocks, hip toss and other variations.
This breakdown also looks at his entries into the clinch and the critical aspect of off-balancing that allowed all the takedowns to seem almost effortless.
Overall I highlight the 3 main clinch entries, the main takedowns and the main principles that Fedor used to achieve all these and the lessons that can be learned from his skills.
