If you were fighting with no clothing lets say like in the ufc then you'd have to modify the moves if possible. well mike they are doing regular Brazilian jiu jitsu moves witch involves clothing.

To pull the opponent down you will need to grab the neck, then put your triceps on his back, control the wrist, and get the hold. Not having a Gi, you should wait for an opening and be ready execute it real fast to go for it cause if the opponent sees that coming he will quickly counter, resulting in a great waste of energy on your side if you insist, and you may end up tired and with no hold. If your guard is REALLY tight you may get the tap even without scooting your hips on the side that far. Plus you can also use it as a sweep that will put you in the mount (!!!) if the opponent is in your guard and in the side mount if he is in your side mount. Or to defend from the rear naked choke when they got your back and your standing/kneeling (not when you're flattened out) or as a throw when you're wrestling on your feet.

What if they arent wearing anything and u cant grab onto a collar? i noticed a lot of these submissions somehow involve grabbing clothing...what if there is no clothing to grab?
