Перевод: Homer Simpson sweep
The Homer Simpson sweep is a deep half guard sweep where the guard player hugs the opponent's knee tightly, pinches their own knees together to prevent leg extraction, and rolls backward toward the opponent to complete the sweep. [1] The rolling motion on the side resembles Homer Simpson running in circles on his side from The Simpsons — hence the name. Described as 'the most simple sweep from deep half.' [2] Without a proper knee pinch, the opponent can pull their leg free.

The Homer Simpson Sweep (also called the battery choke) is a technique designed for a smaller person to defeat a larger opponent through proper technique rather than strength.
Close your guard to control your opponent in this position, keeping them tight—the tighter the better—to prevent them from executing the sweep effectively.
On the street, attackers will naturally try to apply this kind of battery choke to maintain control, making understanding this technique important for real-world defense scenarios.
