New IJF Rules -Possible Scenarios - Neil Adams.wmv

[MonkeyBlueAss]

new reflex moves and reactions must be corrected . For a young this is difficult - to change his reflexes .

@MrUFClaw they already do, its called Sambo

[omgheispoop]

@syalowicki sambo is like mma. there is punching and kicking involved. i love sambo, but really prefer Judo. Been doing for 7 years and cant get my self to stop doing teguruma whenever people reach over my shoulder.

what's with all the rules? stop, your ruining the martial arts

[neilzyaus]

Hey guys, I believe MMA will win out hands down in the end. Actually I hope MMA replaces Judo in the Olympics. I am a life long Judoka but I have always believed in doing a martial art that is realistic. These "new rules" are total BS, they have already spoiled the art of Judo in my opinion.

What have the IJF done?

As both a competitor and referee I think the rules are a bit harsh.

I do remember when the rules changed that allowed throws that would have scored Koka to get Ippons. The change was from 'landing largely on his/her back with speed, force and control'. to 'rolling largely across his/her back in a continuous movement'. This allowed an opponent to be thrown, land on their bum but roll across their back to lose by Ippon.

It was after this rule change that we started seeing more leg takedowns.

As both a competitor and Referree I agree the rules are a bit harsh. We will adapt though with little impact on the 'sport'.

We had similar controversy when the rules changed allowing throws that used to score Koka getting Ippons. The old Ippon throw was 'the opponent lands largely on his/her back being thrown with speed, force and control'. This rule opened up the door for the evolution of the single and double leg takedowns. In my eyes not many of these techniques have all three components.

As both a competitor and Referee I agree the rules are a bit extreme. I feel however that the sport will evolve ok.

I remember the controversy when the rules first changed that allowed an Ippon to be scored more easily in Tachiwaza, i.e. the oppenent lands on their bum then rolls across their back in a continuous movement. We used to give those techniques a score of Koka. As it didn't comply with the old rules of 'landing largly on their back with speed, force and control'.

What infuriates me is that there is no reason for Hansokumake for this, other than a punitive reaction to Naidan from Mongolia killing everyone by Morote Gari.

The main precept of Judo is: "Maximum Efficiency with Minimum Effort" not "Prettiness Matters".

There are ways to counter a 'dirty leg grabber' within judo without having rules changed to protect the Japanese players.

[mhax3]

It's true the new rules are to come back the original judo, because of the overuse of the leg techniques, but also think that hansokumake it's too much for a mistake specially for the new judokas that sometimes act for instinct. For me I really miss the kouchi makekomi.

I don't think that the referees know how to interpret the new rules

[NAEffectiveFighting]

Thanks for the comment and ofcourse everyone is entitled to their opinion! This is what these forums are for!

I would live to hear from some referees on this, whether it's a mis-interpretation or if the clips are of any help. I hope so.

Cheers,

Neil

Once again, great clip Neil. (I recommend to everyone watching this, to watch Neil's first clip regarding the New Rules). Very professionally done. Great articulation. For the record, I do not agree with ALL the rules but, I feel that some are necessary. I blame it on the "lazy" Judokas (FRA) + (MGL) + (USA), who just over-abused certain techniques. Hey, it's just my "opinion", and everyone's entitled to one. I'm glad that it will force Judoka to STAND and THROW - not crouch & "roll."
