Agreed but nothing beats the actual grabbing of a person.

If a person has a jacket chances are I 'm not going to try and choke him with it,I'd rather pull it over his face so he can't see what is coming and starting pounding on him with punches,knees and elbows even.

A little hard to grapple when your face is covered and you can't see what is coming.
