Heel
Hook
The heel
hook is one of the most popular and widely recognized leg lock submission holds
in combat sambo, catch wrestling, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and of course, Mixed
Martial Arts and the Ultimate Fighting Championship. The technique of a proper heel hook can yield
devastating results when applied correctly.
By trapping an opponent’s heel with one’s arm and then turning and
angling the heel in a direction that it’s not supposed to turn, the recipient
may face serious injury to the foot and knee.
Many Mixed Martial Arts fighters have utilized the heel hook on their
road to victory, and unfortunately caused some injuries in the process. Notable names such as Rousimar Palhares, Ken
Shamrock, and Fedor Emelianenko always kept a heel hook in their back pocket in
case the opportunity presented itself.
Leg locks are generally paramount in grappling, mixed martial arts, and
self defense. Although there are a wide
variety of leg locks to choose from, the heel hook may be one of if not the
most dangerous. Several fighters have
lost months’ worth of competition in their prime due to this occasionally
crippling maneuver.
FightStylez
now presents its own version of a “Heel Hook” in this brand new, customized
t-shirt. As you can see, the very
detailed illustration on this tee has one Mixed Martial Arts fighter with a
fishing pole and fishing line, and he is literally “hooking the heel” of
another Mixed Martial Arts fighter as if he were reeling in a fish. This version of a “Heel Hook” by FightStylez
may look nearly as devastating as the real move performed by Mixed Martial
Artists and high-level grapplers from around the world. However, the FightStylez “Heel Hook” is
probably far more humiliating, injury or not.
Whether or not Mixed Martial Arts fighters make good fishermen is a
question that we may never hear an answer to, nor care for. One thing for certain is that we probably
won’t see a fishing pole used as a weapon in any other cage outside of
FightStylez. Regardless, by wearing and
showing off this one-of-a-kind, customized FightStylez tee, you’ll be making a
statement as a Mixed Martial Arts supporter and pay some well-deserved respect
to the devastating maneuver of the “Heel Hook.”
This
t-shirt is custom printed by FightStylez on a 100% cotton shirt, custom printed
in the U.S.A., and multi-colored printed.
