@m5p944 they are close in style and effectiveness. i would not say that judo is superior in the least, certainly not obviously. it's the practitioner not the practice.
read about how much of a sore loser royce and the gracie family are,they complained after the fight and threaten to leave pride in favor of the fight being made a no contest,royce demanded a rematch with no judges.go to wikipedia and read about it royce is a bitch,i can't stand the gracie family
i live in torrance where the original acadamy is and they are a bunch of sell outs, replacing their pride with selling merchandise and over priced tuition
the argument of if he was out or not could easily have been put to rest if the ref wouldve felt his arm to see if he was limp instead of looking. Royce has been put in so many chokes in training that it is most likely he went to sleep here, but plausible that he was able to stay awake
@slipknot4853 I said this once before the gracie's for the most part have only beat low level Judoka's except for Heilo vs Kado and lets not forget the first match was a draw , can you name any high level Judoka beaten by BJJers by high level means Olympic because IMO that is the most skilled Judoka> please do not come back with Remco or Kimo >Remco was for the most part was a Mid level Judoka and Kimo was as MMA fight that left Royce unable to continue to fight .
Yoshida to Royce before the fight starts, "I must break you!"
You see it in many threads, many BJJ guys crying and complaining about Royce not losing this fight. Is that what they teach you at the Gracie Academies as well? To be arrogant and to bitch and moan and not man up when you lose? Whenever the Gracies lose, they always cry and complain as do many of their supporters. Look at the video! Yoshida choked you out! You lost! Grow up and get over it! That's why people don't respect Gracies!!
Judo guys tend to be physically much stronger than BJJ guys. This allows the Judo guy to take superior positions and dictate where the fight goes (also w/ their superior takedowns which is 75% of Judo). What a lot of ppl don't understand is Judo also has a lot of submissions. many submissions used in BJJ originated from Judo and Japanese JJ. Some forms of Judo only focus on throws and trips, while others focus a lot on submissions as well.
@astranine yoshida wouldve killed him and you should know Royce doesn't tap he thinks he wins when he doesn't tap even when he gets choked out,choked out cold where you're sleeping its still a loss
In this fight with Yoshida and Royce. Royce's entire body went limb. His legs, arms, hands etc. There was nothing Royce could have done at that point. It's one thing to argue that the ref interfered too soon, and another to try to argue that u were conscious. Have a Judo expert apply that choke without defending. Trust me, it's a very painful choke. If u don't tap ur gonna go to sleep. Yoshida executed very well. His transition from attacking his opponents arm to the choke was graceful(no pun
The technique applied by Yoshida is very effective. Once u let an opponent get that far and u don't defend, it's over. It wouldn't have mattered if the Ref would have waited 10 seconds longer. When Royce fought Wallid Ismail. It wouldn't have mattered if the Ref or anyone else would have stoped the fight 10 seconds earlier. Get the picture?
The real BJJ of today is a result of Rolls. Every major team over the past twenty years (Alliance, Barra, Nova Uniao, TT, Mendes Bros, Cobrinha) came from Rolls and his students. Maurico Gomez, Jacare Cavalcanti, Carlos Jr. It is a counterpart of the hybrid style that Rolls revolutionized. To label what BJJ is by "the Gracies", is a misconception. Rolls brought BJJ together with catch, sambo, wrestling, etc. Royce at his peak in black belt wouldn't win the Munidal at purple belt today.
Why the hell do the japanese refs insist on putting there hands in the air to signify the end of the fight and THEN break the fighters??? That shit always bugged me and doesn't make sense.
clearly applied the 'pretending to be unconcious' technique HAAHAHAH
well guess what mother fucker, u do that shit in MMA, we have REF's unlike BJJ, and u get that shit called on you, HERP DERP, no pretending to be unconscious in a fight
Ancient Judo have pictures of 1910 aplying the flying armbar,and many others. guys, doesn't make BJJ smaller for recognize that a Judo master has teached for gracies the beginning.. Don't tell me that was japonese Jujitsu that Conde Koma teached, because he was a Jigoro Kano student, and the defintion "Judo" was meade in Japan in 50s. BJJ is a Great fight, take it easy.
Royce's legs became weak making Yoshida pass the guard. he have his weight on that choke. Royce is legendary but is also human, we idolize him but he could also lose he is still a legend,,.
Everyone that I've choked out does the "chicken" dance... datadadadadadaaa, datadadadadadaaa, dada da da da da daaa. Why aren't the Gracie sons fighting, only teaching?
@canofcrass they are great bjj masters the ones in torrance they dont need to fight no one can defeat them!!!!!!!!lol on a serious note they dont fight cauase they are weak and they would get humiliated like renzo royce royler gracie and its bad for the business thing they got goin on in torrance
ya know i actually gotta say i hate the way the captions try and sway opinions on this. Not saying Yoshida wouldn't have won the fight either way. but Royce didn't tap and wasn't out. the moment the stoppage comes he's alert and protesting. just goes to show the choke wasn't having an effect on him. least not yet.
it's not a situation like royler screaming bloody murder with Saku's kimura or Renzo's arm being obviously dislocated.
the man won the fight - but Gracie is still GREAT nonetheless. No arguments against either great fighter, face it - these guys are a level ahead of where most posters here will ever know of, forget be at. Great fight and great fighters, period.
Good breakdown of the video. Really enhances understanding of everything that happened. This is the first time I've seen a box choke used outside my gym, which makes me happy, since I love it and think it's a great submission. For some reason, there seems to be little to no information about it online.
my teammate pretends to be out so i release my triangle chokes just enough so he can escape out and friggin works all the time, i think thats why he was doing here but im not royce so i dont know what was going on in his head
if gracie pretended to b unconcious, of course the ref is gonna call the fight! its as good as tapping. u lost, no need to moan. he won the rematch gtreat but ther was no need to go all dromatic about it...
@NWGunsmoke He won nothing, it was a draw. If Ken Shamrock cannot claim victory over Gracie for a draw, neither can Royce. And Royce had an advantage, he took off his ghi. That's an admission of guilt to me, he feared being defeated again. Respect to the rest of your comment, though.
Just a couple of thoughts here. I don't believe Royce was out. Koshen Judo are the roots of bjj. However, very few Koshen Judo guys left today. To settle this, wrestling rules! lol
@JewishJedi1 Yoshida is not a pure Kosen Judoka. He is a combination of Kodokan and Kosen.... in end, he is a true and pure Judoka that has unbelievable nage-waza (standing) and ne-waza (ground grappling). Yoshida can be compared to sensei Kimura for the balance of 50/50 (standup / ground) that is taught to pure Judokas.
do you know that royce cried like a bitch to the people in charge that this fight was made a no contest it was even removed from his history of fights the only evidence of it is the video,royce made threats to leave pride and demanded a rematch.royce is a punk and watching him get fuck in the ufc against matt hughes was priceless
Isint Judo the 'Gentle Art'. This is like the Kimura vs Gracie fight in the 50's--only submissions, its crazy how they use the Gii's to there advantage, people can use there clothes like that in the real world!
sode guruma jime. judo. night night royce. his body reacts alot like the yt video of Walid putting him to sleep. limp. yoshida shouldve held it till he shat himself? or would there be an excuse then too?
@skate4life890 He got choked out. I had this argument and discussion with my BJJ Gracie friends, if you been choked out you wont know it that is why ref is there. In Judo we learn to let go of choke once person goes limp. if you never been choked out you would not know. if one is not protecting neck or fighting back it would be insane to wait for a person to tap if they may be dying.
@lallope Very well put. I trained at the Gracie Academy for 3 yrs in the late 90s and my unbiased opinion is that Royce lost this one. His arm did go limp & that sucker was clinched tight.
I learned that same Gi choke from my Judo instructor when I was 10years old, in 1980. BJJ was nowhere to be found in the USA. It was all Japanese & Korean arts! Even KungFu was taking a back seat to JeetKuneDo. Japan has always taken other cultures and adopted them as their own for centuries, including Chinese martial arts. Sure, the Gracies have added a few techniques, but what grandmaster you know hasn't done that? I have known 5 grandmasters personally, and that is what they do.
He's not really doing anything to stave off the inevitable. The ref's in a lawsuit if he lets that go on any longer till the victim's thoroughly unresponsive
Aquí no se tomó sus esteroides y también "fingió" estar inconsciente, como en el combate contra Ismail Wallid. Desgraciadamente en estos torneos no dejan a los Gracie arreglar las peleas. Un minuto más y lo matan.
Aquí no se tomó sus esteroides y también "fingió" estar inconsciente, como en el combate contra Ismail Wallid. Desgraciadamente en estos torneos no dejan a los Gracie arreglar las peleas.
JAJAJAJAJA WHEN ROYCE FOUGHT AGAINST GOOD FIGHTERS HE LOST! HE IMPRESSED STUPID PEOPLE JUST WHEN HE FOUGHT GUYS WHO GAVE UP BEFORE ROYCE START APPLYING THE CHOKE IN FEW WORDS WHEN ROYCE FOUGHT AGAINST SHITTY FIGHTERS!
EEEEZZZZZIIIIIIIKKKKKKIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLL........I honestly think that fight mustv been rigged, cuz u dont see black belts being choked out by that, since its so easily prevented, and for someone like royce ud think thatd be a natural defence....
long time i thought that bjj is the best fighting skill until i saw this clip and found out its not that great lol judo is an olympic martial art sport and that yoshida almost send him for burial to hell...gracie shld accept it even he lose or win he is martial art fighter he knew the rules of defeat he shld suck his own dick for his own shameless act
I also never see his limbs go limp, his hand does seem to relax, possibly as a result of one artery being cut off (makes you a bit dizzy) also notice his foot pointing up to and flexed, maintaining a 1/2 butterfly guard of sorts. In conclusion, it appears the referee made a mistake, albeit the safe call to protect Royce, You can't blame the ref for erring on the side of caution, and if it was a good choke I count almost 15 seconds of application.
because he knows Royce and the Gracie families are all scum. Judo = > BJJ. And he is basically saying fuck you to Helio in the crowd as a reminder that Kimura broke both his arms back in 1954.
I love how the Gracies took something the Japanese made and called it "gracie jujitsu". Now they know what they are doing, i'll give them that. But you stole it. Period. I respect them for spreading the sport, and for being warriors, but I disagree with the way they went about it.
wrestling techniques (such as choke holds and joint locks) were around 1000's of years before Japan ever saw them...before Greek and Roman wrestling... there was Babylonian wrestling..
LOL, funny how the Gracie's say that their system is the best, but as soon as they fight another submission fighter and lose they say its because they know Gracie Jiu Jitsu. Gracie family got famous fighting a bunch of bums who don't know how to grapple. I don't think Royce Gracie is even that good, I mean the only time you see him do well is against bums and when he has his gi on. Which should not be allowed in competition because it can be used as a tool to submit opponents.
NOT FAIR!! for those of you unaware of the ancient arts BJJ has contributed to Kosen Judo and this video is evidence of it. Royce clearly applies the technique of 'pretending to be unconcious' and then follows that up with a swift "complain like crazy after you lose". Kosen Judo never had either of these techniques before BJJ came along and there needs to be recognition of this.
I think that the anniversary of this fight is a day of mourning on the "Bullshido" site--after all in their religion, there are only two valid martial arts, Thai Boxing and BJJ.
I watched it closely he choked him out. See how Royce's legs weakened making Yoshida pass guard. Royce was stopping him in halfguard see closely. Yoshida got his weight in the choke. There is no clear way or leverage to sweep more so pretending then a swift. Choke would be tighter and position of Yoshida would be in a more dominant position.
Why the Gracies talked trash about Judo when their style is Judo (Kosen) I'll never understand. They paid here. The Gracies either duck all serious competition like when Royce exited the UFC instead of fighting Severn again, or Don Frye, Coleman in his prime, Maurice Smith, etc...etc...Rickson ducked Ruas, Bas Rutten, fedor, Gokor, (even though Bas publicly called him out in Pride?) Then they say BJJ doesn't take strength and Royce pops for DECA?
Reguardless of who is on whos side and whats better... in this particular instance the referee made the correct call. Royce could not escape and was showing no sign of doing so. Chokes can go on in around 5 seconds and there was no way for the ref to see how tight it was. He stopped the fight when royce relaxed. IMO royce relaxed to slow adrenalin and decrease oxygen need for his body so he could last a bit longer but he should have at least made a signal that he was ok
I still believe that was a fair victory for Yoshida. And it was a hammer choke, not a gi choke. He would have one hand go over the other with a gi choke.
This video shows us who the true masters of the art of grappling are. Pay some fucking respect to the Japanese for creating "your" art, Gracies. I think the BJJ logo should contain the words "Made in Japan".

fuck royce gracie. he would've died if the ref didn't interfere. how OBVIOUS is it that he got choked the fuck out. conscious my ass.

@skate4life890 He got choked out. I had this argument and discussion with my BJJ Gracie friends, if you been choked out you wont know it that is why ref is there. In Judo we learn to let go of choke once person goes limp. if you never been choked out you would not know. if one is not protecting neck or fighting back it would be insane to wait for a person to tap if they may be dying.

@lallope Very well put. I trained at the Gracie Academy for 3 yrs in the late 90s and my unbiased opinion is that Royce lost this one. His arm did go limp & that sucker was clinched tight.

I learned that same Gi choke from my Judo instructor when I was 10years old, in 1980. BJJ was nowhere to be found in the USA. It was all Japanese & Korean arts! Even KungFu was taking a back seat to JeetKuneDo. Japan has always taken other cultures and adopted them as their own for centuries, including Chinese martial arts. Sure, the Gracies have added a few techniques, but what grandmaster you know hasn't done that? I have known 5 grandmasters personally, and that is what they do.

Aquí no se tomó sus esteroides y también "fingió" estar inconsciente, como en el combate contra Ismail Wallid. Desgraciadamente en estos torneos no dejan a los Gracie arreglar las peleas. Un minuto más y lo matan.

I also never see his limbs go limp, his hand does seem to relax, possibly as a result of one artery being cut off (makes you a bit dizzy) also notice his foot pointing up to and flexed, maintaining a 1/2 butterfly guard of sorts. In conclusion, it appears the referee made a mistake, albeit the safe call to protect Royce, You can't blame the ref for erring on the side of caution, and if it was a good choke I count almost 15 seconds of application.

I love how the Gracies took something the Japanese made and called it "gracie jujitsu". Now they know what they are doing, i'll give them that. But you stole it. Period. I respect them for spreading the sport, and for being warriors, but I disagree with the way they went about it.

wrestling techniques (such as choke holds and joint locks) were around 1000's of years before Japan ever saw them...before Greek and Roman wrestling... there was Babylonian wrestling..

LOL, funny how the Gracie's say that their system is the best, but as soon as they fight another submission fighter and lose they say its because they know Gracie Jiu Jitsu. Gracie family got famous fighting a bunch of bums who don't know how to grapple. I don't think Royce Gracie is even that good, I mean the only time you see him do well is against bums and when he has his gi on. Which should not be allowed in competition because it can be used as a tool to submit opponents.

NOT FAIR!! for those of you unaware of the ancient arts BJJ has contributed to Kosen Judo and this video is evidence of it. Royce clearly applies the technique of 'pretending to be unconcious' and then follows that up with a swift "complain like crazy after you lose". Kosen Judo never had either of these techniques before BJJ came along and there needs to be recognition of this.

I watched it closely he choked him out. See how Royce's legs weakened making Yoshida pass guard. Royce was stopping him in halfguard see closely. Yoshida got his weight in the choke. There is no clear way or leverage to sweep more so pretending then a swift. Choke would be tighter and position of Yoshida would be in a more dominant position.

Why the Gracies talked trash about Judo when their style is Judo (Kosen) I'll never understand. They paid here. The Gracies either duck all serious competition like when Royce exited the UFC instead of fighting Severn again, or Don Frye, Coleman in his prime, Maurice Smith, etc...etc...Rickson ducked Ruas, Bas Rutten, fedor, Gokor, (even though Bas publicly called him out in Pride?) Then they say BJJ doesn't take strength and Royce pops for DECA?
Gracie BJJ = Silly Marketing.

Reguardless of who is on whos side and whats better... in this particular instance the referee made the correct call. Royce could not escape and was showing no sign of doing so. Chokes can go on in around 5 seconds and there was no way for the ref to see how tight it was. He stopped the fight when royce relaxed. IMO royce relaxed to slow adrenalin and decrease oxygen need for his body so he could last a bit longer but he should have at least made a signal that he was ok

I still believe that was a fair victory for Yoshida. And it was a hammer choke, not a gi choke. He would have one hand go over the other with a gi choke.
