1: With Riley down on his knees, Jimmy grabs his collar and belt.
2: Jimmy steps over Riley’s body with his left leg and takes back control.

4: Jimmy drives his left foot towards the mat to complete the roll.
5: With his leg trapped, Riley has nowhere to go. Jimmy pulls his elbow back to apply the choke.
