Not only is Jaime Canuto one of the few modern jiu-jitsu black belts to be a master of the closed guard, but he's also got a sick flying armbar.

Canto was up against Eric Ingram at the IBJJF Dallas Fall Open last weekend, and he launched right up into the flying attack less than a minute into their match.

This isn't the first time we've seen Canuto hit this technique, of course. Canto hit the exact same move in his match with Josh Hinger at the IBJJF 2017 World Championships in June for a spectacular match-winning finish that saw him claim victory with only one second left on the clock.

Canuto has already said that he's planning on competing at every UAEJJF Grand Slam event, so he'll be back in action soon at the Grand Slam in Rio de Janeiro on Nov. 10-12, which you can watch live or on demand on FloGrappling.
