WATCH: This could well be the most preposterously inventive guard pass of all time

Why just toss the legs to one side when you can backflip into side control?
Dzhihad Yunusov is not a household name by any means but he's set to go viral after coming up with an insane display of athleticism at an Akhmat Fight Show event on Saturday night. Russia's Yunusov was taking on Konstantin Veselkin at the event and when presented with the chance to enter a ground exchange with his opponent, Yunusov decided to do so in style.Yunusov unexpectedly leaped through the air and gymnastically backflipped over Veselkin's legs to land in side control, as captured by @GrabakaHitman. And he's not just a glorified gymnast, Yunusov also displayed some elite grappling skills by submitting his out-matched opponent via Ezekiel choke from guard.Holy shit.
