The Collar Tie family covers clinch positions where the attacker places one or both hands behind the opponent's neck, gripping the back of the neck or base of the skull to control the head and posture. [1] The collar tie provides direct head control — the attacker can pull the opponent's head down to break posture, push it to the side to create angles, or snap it forward to initiate takedown entries. [1],[2] Single collar ties allow one free hand for strikes or secondary grips, while the double collar tie (Thai plum) provides maximum head control for knee strikes and clinch throwing techniques. [2],[3]
История и происхождение
The collar tie has been a fundamental clinch grip in wrestling for centuries, with the hand-behind-the-neck position appearing in the earliest wrestling instruction. [1] Muay Thai developed the collar tie into its most sophisticated form — the plum clinch — where head control is the foundation of the entire clinch fighting system. [2],[3]

Биомеханический механизм
Primary Action — Controlling the opponent's head and posture using double collar tie or plum position
Joints Involved — Opponent's cervical spine (controlled via collar tie), attacker's elbows (clamped for control), hips (pulling base)
Force Vector — Downward — pulling the opponent's head below their centre of gravity breaks their posture and balance
Control Mechanic — Elbow frames create a cage around the opponent's head — inside position dominance is the key to clinch control
Позиция и вход
From striking range — Close distance with a jab or level change, cup the hand behind the opponent's head (nape of the neck), pull their posture down
From hand fighting — During grip exchanges, swim inside and secure the collar tie by cupping the back of the head

✓The collar tie (hand behind the opponent's neck/head) is the most versatile clinch grip in combat sports — it controls posture, creates angles, and sets up strikes, takedowns, and throws (Couture, Wrestling for Fighting, 2006)
✓Cup the back of the opponent's neck with your palm — fingers behind the neck, not gripping the hair or grabbing the chin
✓Pull the opponent's head downward and to the side to break their posture — this off-balancing sets up snaps, drags, and shots
✓The collar tie is the gateway grip: from here you transition to underhook, front headlock, Thai plum, or arm drag
✓In MMA, the collar tie is used for dirty boxing — control the head, land short punches and elbows
✓Use your forearm on the opponent's collarbone as a frame while the hand cups the neck — this provides structural strength
✓Drill collar tie attacks in chains: snap down, if they posture up drag the arm, if they resist pull into a knee
Типичные ошибки
!Grabbing the back of the head instead of cupping the neck — the neck cup gives better directional control
!Pulling straight down without an angle — always pull diagonally to create rotational off-balance
!Using the collar tie passively without attacking — snap, drag, or strike within 2-3 seconds
!Reaching for the collar tie with a straight arm — the arm should be bent with the elbow close to the body
!Clasping behind the neck with both hands when you only have one (confusing collar tie with Thai plum) — the collar tie is a one-hand grip
!Forgetting the other hand — the non-collar-tie hand must be active (posting, gripping sleeve, or striking)
!Standing upright without applying downward pressure — the collar tie should make the opponent feel heavy

Double Collar Tie-Thai Plum
ПодсемействоThe Double Collar Tie (Thai Plum) subfamily covers the clinch position where both hands grip behind the opponent's neck, creating maximum head control with bilateral grip. [1] The Thai plum is the signature position of Muay Thai clinch fighting — both hands interlocked behind the neck with elbows tight against the opponent's collarbones, allowing the attacker to pull the head down for devastating knee strikes. [1,2] The double collar tie creates a powerful frame that controls the opponent's posture, movement, and ability to generate offence, making it one of the most dominant standing clinch positions in combat sports.

Irish Collar Tie
ПодсемействоThe Irish Collar Tie is a clinch position where one hand controls the back of the opponent's neck (collar tie) while the other hand controls their wrist on the same side — creating a diagonal control configuration used in wrestling and MMA for snap-downs, level changes, and arm drag setups. [1] The 'Irish' variation specifically refers to the wrist control addition to the standard collar tie. [1,2]

Single Collar Tie
ПодсемействоThe Single Collar Tie subfamily covers clinch positions where one hand grips behind the opponent's neck while the other hand is free to work — gripping the arm, controlling the wrist, or preparing for strikes or takedowns. [1] The single collar tie is the most common initial clinch position in both wrestling and MMA because it is easily established from striking range and provides meaningful head control with one hand while keeping the other available for offence. [1,2] The free hand's versatility makes the single collar tie an extremely adaptable position from which numerous techniques can be initiated. [2,3]

Часто задаваемые вопросы
How do I escape a collar tie without getting followed up with strikes?
Don't just release the grip and step away, as your opponent may immediately follow with punches or elbows. Instead, maintain control of their arm by converting it into a two-on-one grip, which keeps you safe while you set up a takedown or strike (Stay Safe Martial Arts).
What's the basic breakaway technique for a collar tie?
Turn your head and duck slightly while pushing at your opponent's elbow, then push your arm across to create separation. This simple grip break requires maintaining eye contact and awareness so you know if they try to tie up again (Stay Safe Martial Arts).
Why shouldn't I just lift up when ducking under a collar tie?
If you try to throw the collar tie up or lift while ducking, your opponent can keep it tight and maintain control. Instead, come underneath it and duck it properly, then get your angle and penetrate to escape (kenprimo).
How do I set up a takedown after defending a collar tie?
After securing control—either through a breakaway, two-on-one grip, or by ducking under—drop your level and penetrate forward. You can also use footwork and circling to create an angle rather than relying solely on upper body strength (kenprimo, Stay Safe Martial Arts).
