Underhook

A clinch hold for controlling an opponent.

An underhook is a clinch hold performed by placing an arm under the opponent's arm to control the midsection or upper body. A single underhook uses one arm; double underhooks use both arms and are considered a dominant clinch position, enabling takedowns or throws.
