@Mudanch33 I noticed that. I was wondering why they didn't call ippon sooner.

Using Jiu-Jitsu rules and mindset at a Judo tournament. Classy.

I´m a shodan in judo, been practicing judo since I was 8, now I´m 27... I`ve won a jujitsu championship, and i barely practice jujitsu.
This doesn`t mean anything. Judo is a style of jujutsu, in case you didn´t know, All of the methods taught by jujutsu schools nowadays were made by Kano, judo´s founder.
The real difference is made by the competitor, and BJ is a great one.

I... I think the fact that this is BJ Penn already skews the data here.
Plus, despite what people wanna think being strong and in generally great shape is always gonna be helpful in martial arts. A decent foundation in the basics (and Judo and BJJ come from the same origins so their 'basics' are remarkably similar) and awesome physical abilities and you can do pretty awesomely for yourself.

@shangss I know and seen it happen, once they hit the ground, they stagger back up and made the match standing, one time they made a ref made, so they made them start on their knees lolol

@OVERCAPITALIZE judo players should totally go into a bjj tourny and win based on throws, i know people who've done that!

what a misleading intro. bj penn was NOT a bjj white belt at the time. he is wearing a JUDO white belt.
bj penn also beat a blue belt in jiu jitsu, which is also never supposed to happen. he got his black belt and was world champion 3 years in! amazing for any martial art, but in jiu jitsu it takes average 10 years to get a black belt! lets cut the judoka some slack

Sry, more BJJ bull shit! I train with judoka who compete. You cant have a white belt or Ikyu in a match with a Shodan! Yet again as I've posted before, were, when and what certification from USJF/USJA did this "Judo competition" have. Simply embarrassing for BJJ's credibility!
