It’s the kickstand. I believe that is what they called it
Suloev stretch or a thigh slicer is what I know it as. Look up Amar Suloev vs. Paul Calhoon, should be able to find it. Difference in that one is that he actually pulls the leg out and almost ends Cahoon’s career (he was out over two years after that).
On the post fight show rashad or Chael though was calling it a kickstand. But that is a brutal submission.
A kickstand is from wrestling and it is just holding onto the leg when the guy posts the outside leg you’re trying to force a stalemate call to get a restart. Not an actual submission until you pressure into the leg.
