The whole thing is such a joke. Chauvin was only 140 lbs. Floyd was 225. I've trained BJJ for years. I'm only 180-190 and guys that are 140 lbs can't choke me out even if I don't resist except for very aggressive chokes like cross choke from mount. If they kneeled on my neck it would be mildly uncomfortable at worst, hence why Floyd had no problem yelling and screaming the first couple minutes he was on the ground.

Floyd was also high as a kite, maybe he just forgot to breathe ?
