If the Finals end draw , we decide the winner with ‘overtime game’ in the amateur and pro category also.
Athletes start from back mount or classic arm bar position, they have to escape or finish the submission. If one of them submits the opponent and then escapes when he is in the escape situation, he won. If both of them escapes , the faster escape wins, and if both of them submits, the faster submission wins.
The referee flips a coin and the athlete who guesses the coin’s side right can decide to start or choose position to escape from.
