Haymaker – Irimi Nage – Palm-on-Chin Entry / Knee-drop Variation

As Uke launches a wide haymaker, Tori steps forward on the centerline, raising both hands: his rear hand stops the attacking arm, while his lead hand places the palm under Uke’s chin, extending the head backward and unbalancing him to the rear. From this position, Tori steps to the outside with his rear leg (which becomes the lead leg) and wraps his now lead arm around Uke’s attacking arm, placing his hand on the tricep and controlling the arm under his armpit. With his other hand, he turns Uke’s face to the outside, sliding the palm from the chin to the cheek, and in one continuous movement cuts downward as he drops his now rear knee to the ground, bringing Uke down.
