Geoff Thompson. ISBN : 1 84024 174 8. Publication Date: February, 2001. 156 x 235 mm, 96 pages. Ground Fighting is one of the most underestimated and yet devastatingly ferocious of all the Martial Arts. 95% of all street fights that are not finished within the first 3 seconds end up on the floor. Are you prepared? This series of books prepares you with the very best of Wrestling, Ju-jitsu, Judo etc. covering ground control, bars, locks, chokes, strangles, cranks, butts, bites, tearing, gouges etc., reintroducing the many illegal and banned techniques from a century ago. Most fighters' worst nightmare is being pinned on their back. This book deals with defences and attacks from that position and shows that it can often be a very favourable position when you have the knowledge. Deals with escaping or finishing with strikes, chokes, broken strangles, leg strangles, bars, butts, bites, gouges etc.
