In combat sports and grappling martial arts like Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ), the mount is considered one of the most dominant positions. One can hold an opponent on their back while sitting on their torso. If you are the person holding the mount, you can choose to either deliver punches and elbows (in MMA or a self-defense situation) or isolate one of the opponent’s arms or neck in order to administer one of a number of different submission attacks.
