didn't Oleg Taktarov use it -albeit briefly - in matches against Dave Beneteau and Dan Severn?
Oleg? Hmmmm....now we have a place to start!
I don't remember Oleg using it myself, but seeing as his favorite grip in Sambo/Judo is a variation of the 2-on-1 I'm not at all surprised. I'll have to rewatch these fights and see.
Nowaydo - can you think of a specific Couture fight in which he goes in and out of this move?
Right now, the USA Wrestling website (www.themat.com) is having a promotional where you can view videos from the member-only section. In that section is a FANTASTIC video of Ivan Yarygin showing a bunch of variations off the 2 on 1 tie. You might see something there that would be useful.
oregontim - I can find the technique of the month section (http://themat.com/membersonly/techMonth.asp ) with Ivan Yarygin, but I can't find the link to the video clip. I can find all the live action clips at http://themat.com/membersonly/fsquery3.asp , but I don't think that's what you're talking about.
