  • We got doug to train with us :D

  • @tksmurf Yeah you're right there are a lot of throws that are dangerous and can easily put you in a bad ground work position, but those are the ones you avoid when you're fighting a guy who's better on the ground then you haha. On the other hand though some guys are good enough to make it work, several ufc fighters and jiujitsu guys use a drop seoi to great effect. But you're right it's pretty risky.

  • @Judokkaa pardon me your correct, but i would say that in my class certain throws are deemed unecessary. i mean if you look at a throw like seoi nage, it makes sense in judo drill but it's not looked at with reverence because its easy to take someones back when they do this throw.

  • @tksmurf What would you say has been thrown out? Well I suppose in some BJJ competitions they don't allow throws above the waist, but as for general training I have not heard of anything being taken out.

  • @Judokkaa and vice versa, i dont think judo is weak, i think that since judo is the father of bjj, bjj takes everything needed in judo, throws out the ones they dont need, and adds new things from other grappling martial arts, and techniques. i think judo was ingenious and a great evolution in martial arts and we owe judo a credit for giving us things like bjj and in effect emphasising the necessity of grappling in the fighting arts.

  • @tksmurf Actually Judo does do the same! Everything added to BJJ (with the exception of legs locks) pretty much gets added to Judo too, and vise versa. It's true many Judo clubs neglect ground work when they are more competition oriented, but many clubs like mine who aren't do a lot of ground work! We hold our own against high ranking Jiu jitsu guys regularly!

  • OSU
