Why is the mount the most dominant position in fighting?
When you've secured the mount position, your opponent is at an extreme disadvantage.
You are safe from taking damage, yet it is easy for you to dish it out. Also, every minute you can maintain the mount is another minute your opponent is struggling to escape, and another minute you are safe.
This buys you time to either set up a submission and finish the fight, or inflict damage in the form of strikes, or just control the fight if you need to while they burn themselves out.
The problem is: most people have no idea how to maintain the mount for any significant length of time against someone resisting, or how to escape the mount of a highly skilled opponent.
