With the possible exception of Chan Sung Jung himself, perhaps no one was more excited to see "The Korean Zombie" use the twister to submit Leonard Garcia at UFC Fight Night 24 than Eddie Bravo - the grappler who's credited with bringing the move to prominence in MMA and jiu-jitsu competitions."I was blown away," Bravo told MMA Fighting. "It was surreal."
Bravo has been teaching the twister - along with other mainstays of his style, such as the rubber guard - out of his 10th Planet Jiu-Jitsu school in southern California for years. But Jung's use of the move marked the first time a UFC fight was ever finished with the twister. Considering where Bravo first learned it, he said, the fact that it took this long to be used in MMA's largest organization might be the most surprising part of the story.
