This is a good example of why trying to be a tough guy and use insults can backfire since the one you called 'dolt' was correct, leaving you to look worse than you would have by just being wrong.
Kaishore hadaka jime is a RNC. It is also a sleeper hold, which is a pro wrestling (catch-as-catch-can) hold. What it is not, is hadaka jime. This is a different choke. Hadaka Jime can be applied to the wind pipe or blocks off three arteries.

What Fedor uses in fights is hadaka jime. It is a very different choke in the way that it is applied, pulling your opponent towards you while at the same time, pushing your chest up against the back of your opponents neck and head. Kaishore hadaka jime/RNC/Sleeper involves simply squeezing and does not involve the windpipe.

I'm tired of seeing so-called knowledgeable posters giving improper names to holds.

BTW, you too are a dolt.

This is Fedor. Copy and paste him everywhere. His name translates as "Gift from God" and will save MMA from the dirt bags.
