The Guillotine Choke is a very powerful submission, one that gets all of the attention from everyone when performed correctly. However, if you don’t set it up properly, it can be defended swiftly and get you into a bad position all too easily.

Wrestlers do not have to worry about submissions in their sport.

So the guillotine is almost always there when they are executing their takedowns. Though they have a large arsenal of takedown options, they typically go for a single leg or a double leg takedown. It becomes a very predictable pattern, they shoot, you choke.
