Check out the Rickson clips on the blog:

Rickson had a fight career of 400 fights, all wins, no losses.
Many of those fights were on the streets of Brazil, pavement fights, not cage or ring.
300 of those fights Rickson won with the sleeper choke
- hadaka jime - or the Gracie name for it
Mata Leon "The Lion Killer".
Just as Tyson won a huge majority of his boxing matches with the rear uppercut, Rickson won with his choke. Though the range, phase and technique are completely different what they are doing is the same thing. Exactly the same thing. Think about it.
As the choke locked on and just before the opponent passed out Rickson would whisper in his ear
"what does it feel like to die?"
