One additional comment on the Kosen judo tournament: I did not participate as a competitor but I did attend the seminar the day before and I helped coach one of my buddies with his matches. Keep in mind, my friend is only a jui jtisu practitioner, meaning he has knowledge of judo but he never formally trained judo. Just to give you a point of reference he won his match with an uchi mata and then an uchi gari. One of the rules for Kosen judo was two solid throws equals ippon - you get a wazari for each. So that's what he did- he got 2 solid throws and won the match. I watched other matches and there were people winning through other traditional means such as countering a throw and a moving into ne waza or countering a throw and transitioning into osaekomi. There was more time on the ground allowed but it wasn't to the point where competitors could sit there and stall and do nothing. Competitors had to be advancing. I honestly thought it was a perfect marriage between judo and BJJ.

So I am late to this, but I have several points to make in favor of leg grabs based upon experience as well as general knowledge: 1st as I understand it the way that the rules are set up, the leg grabs can only be done with one hand. Further, I believe this means that the other hand has to be engaged on the lapel well or some other part of the gi. From what I have heard the main throws that this rule change would bring back are te guruma and kata guruma. 2nd, if leg grabs are brought back, it certainly possible that some judoka will start fighting hunched over for fear of leg attacks. Yet, these leg attacks existed in the past and people were able to get throws with them. So I do not feel that having leg grabs return would be as much of a hindrance to the sport. 3rd, we know that the rule set could still support more active engagement in throwing and attacking. So for example if someone chooses to sit back on their haunches and not engage for fear of a leg attack, well they're going to get shidos. The IJF can still promote the attacks by allowing certain leg attacks/grabs in while still keeping the rules to enforce engagement in actual fighting and not stalling or avoiding.

Nice job Dave!

Love your channel Dave! Let do another podcast soon! @offthecuffwith lucky 🍀 ❤️☘️

I had a great time on the podcast. Look for to the next one!

There's two type of judo, greco roman judo (aka olympic judo) and freestyle judo(aka sambo)

Just bring back all the take downs and standing submissions. Keep the scoring the same. There were two divisions of wrestling in the NCAA, Folk and Catch.

They are coming back!

Yes we do.

Great explanations. Thank you.

What would be the following natural submission after makikomi?

Intercepting their lapel grip is absolutely my favorite way to do sode. I'm doing this stuff in a BJJ class, since I don't train Judo anymore (nowhere near me!) and it is so much fun!

This video really helped me, thanks mate

Great video!!!

nah i don’t even do judo but this move kills in wrestling

Thank You

awsome!

Amazing tutorial

I have motion sickness watching this.

Funny I taught this Saturday 😂

It's an OK demonstration of the technique, better than most.

Armchair violence simply doesn't understand it, Judo is a grappling martial art first, and a throwing martial art second. No gi Judo with strikes is MMA, and because Judo is a grappling martial art, it will teach you how to control someone, pin them to a wall or cage and beat the shit out of them. Throws, pins armlocks and strangles are simply a bonus, and yes they do exist.

Good chat Dave and Brian

Every martial arts needs to be adapted when applied in a MMA or street setting. Eg Muay Thai stance is vulnerable to double leg take downs, Boxing stance is vulnerable to leg kicks and head movement to kicks. BJJ needs to be less keen to go to bottom positions. Judo needs to protect their back better etc etc...

Good conversation guys. Brian is a great guy. I have worked with him in both judo and Bjj. I think that you need both judo and Bjj in order to be somewhat complete then you need a form of striking and kicking but that is a whole other conversation. The reason side control does not score point is because is is heavily dependent on using your arms for controlling the pin. Mount and back control score heavy because the control is more leg based and allow you to strike your opponent. So position in jujitsu are based on your ability to strike and choke while controlling with your legs. Even the knee on belly scores 2 points because you can punch elbow and choke your opponent. Nice job!

I bet the instructor would get his a$$ kicked in a real fight

Thanks for the tutorial! Ima try it on my Grandma!

Great knowledge shared!💪🏼🍀

Bull shit your training partner and your opponent will never be that bladed with mo base under their legs maybe someone with no knowledge of any combat sport

Love these combination flows! Almost like choreography

Hugely beneficial.

Excellent. Very thorough and useful. I love it. Thank you for teaching me so much about my favorite throw.

🍀 🍀🍀

Great interview 👍🏻

Excellent job!

So... I have never been able to tell the difference between yama arashi and hari goshi. Is it just the grip on the lapel that differs? Also I love the translation of yama arashi "mountain storm".

Ehhhhhh

Great one, I was doing it another way but I loved this one.
