Brutal Reverse Omoplata Submission! Saulo Reverse vs Jaimie Levine | Pro Ams

Brutal Reverse Omoplata Submission! Saulo Reverse vs Jaimie Levine | Pro Ams Saulo Ribeiro was born in Manaus, Brazil on July 2, 1974.[16] At the age of 15 and already a Judo practitioner, Saulo started training Jiu Jitsu as a way to improve his Judo game by learning submissions.[16] He moved away from home in December 1991 and headed to school in Rio de Janeiro.[16] Rio de Janeiro is where Saulo began his training under Royler Gracie at the legendary Gracie Humaitá.[16] Shortly after receiving his black belt from Royler Gracie on November 27, 1995, Saulo won the Brazilian Nationals Lightweight Title. The Omoplata is a joint lock specifically targeting the shoulder and shoulder blade, which if you remember from high school anatomy is called the scapula. That’s not just a random flex of my retention of High School Academics, it is the literal translation from the English Scapula to the Portuguese Omoplata. In its ancestral home of Japan, as well as in Judo, the Omoplata is known as Ashi Sankaku Garami (Legs, Triangle, Entanglement). In Catch Wrestling it is known by the less exotic and less explanatory “Coil Lock.”
