When it comes to standing guillotine success, there are two rules that govern everything: 1) never let your opponent get to the safe side, and 2) whoever initiates/controls the descent has the the advantage. Dustins’s amazing application of the Posture Principle (#16 of 32) led to one of the most beautiful guillotine defenses I’ve seen in the UFC, and if Conor would have deployed the Velocity Principle (#7 of 32) with a bit more conviction the night would have ended VERY differently.
