Judo brown belt here - I don't disagree about judoka over committing, but many times, as I suspect is the case here, it's not actually overcommitting - it's undercommitting for the sake of safety. A committed judo throw here would have been him making the circle less round and landing on your ribs while maintaining a close connection. He's throwing you up in the air, not down into the ground, which is why you have all of the extra space and opportunities. You can also see that he posts on his hand in order to protect you from his weight. "Mutual Benefit and Welfare" is one of the two core tenets of Judo and it seems to be a bigger training priority in Judo than BJJ in my experience.

[@30035XD]

Thanks for breaking it down. I noticed it very easily, but couldn't put it in words, as my skills in both Judo and Bjj are quite limited. Not many people understand how dangerous Judo really is when applied full throttle. You basically hit the bad guy with the planet.

[@FabianD1991]

Se nota que el Judoka esta siendo muy cuidadoso con las tecnicas, respetos para el.

@@navhawk3438 must must be a clueless cave troll if you have not a clue about Rhonda Rousey, Karo Parisyan etc and how they ended up.

[@lamesurfer1015]

I agree. I usually don't over commit to my Uchi Matas or Seoi Nages against people who I know aren't trained to take falls (i.e. wrestlers / judoka). In fact, I usually don't use those techiques much at all in BJJ or against people who have a competition coming up because of the risk to injury. So instead, this is what happens... 1. I soft ball my forward throw because I don't want to hurt my training partner (i.e. a shallow uchi mata or a really slow ippon seoi nage). 2. The BJJ player usually scrambles to take my back. The few times I've thrown with force and landed square on them by accident they usually tap or ask for a quick break. Again, I'm not trying to do this, but it happens occasionally when mats are slippery. About 3 months ago a guy who outweighed me by 30 lbs tried to take my back while I still had a lapel grip and I instinctively threw an uchi mata, landed on him, and bruised his ribs. As a result, I usually stick to throws with a lot of control (Ashi Waza) and some sutemi waza that I can control the impact on (rolling uki wazas, tawara gaeshis, and sumi gaeshis). Again, this is to avoid hurting my partner. This is the same as a wrestler electing to use a claw breakdown, slide by's, and turning the corner on a double rather than blasting a standing Barzegar, Salto, or Belly to Back Suplex.

[@Dynamic6000]

Friendly PSA. When Judo guys “over commit” by rolling through or hover above, it’s often not accidental. They are intentionally trying to lessen the blow of the impact for the receiver. Getting thrown is one thing, getting thrown while they land connected with full weight on top of you, sandwiching your body, with no ability to rebound… it’s a fight ender even on the mat. A comparison would be like blasting an arm bar full speed and tensions with no ability to tap vs getting into it more technically. The problem is you can’t really slow down some of the throws when it’s in full send, but a good thrower can lessen its impact, often by rolling through or posting… So, smile slap dap and appreciate them for not breaking ribs. 😂

[@antoinegezod]

Yeah that's bullshit. During judo competitions you see them overthrowing more than not. And opponent's safety is the last thing they think about lol. It is SUPER hard to control the momentum and while in judo successful throw ends the match in BJJ the bottom guy can just drag you with him after getting thrown and get better position. It takes extra skill to use judo effectively in BJJ.

[@moqo]

@@antoinegezod if you overthrow during randori you aren't really doing it right. Competition is another level of intensity so don't really get your point. Again if its randori and you throw your partner on their head then you are again doing it wrong, that being said if you know what you are doing as a judoka and want to throw for self defence...enjoy spinning to guard with that concussion/broken ribs. If you don't respect the standing game in BJJ then you are just limiting yourself. Learn the full art and don't just pull guard.

[@eltonblack9421]

BJJ is Judo. Name one BJJ technique that isn't a judo technique? There are different judo bjj bodies each with their own rule sets. The rule set is not the art form. Judo isn't standing only and BJJ isn't ground only... Bjj is an expression of judo

[@antoinegezod]

@@moqo you overestimate the power of throws. Skateboarders fall from tall shit all the time and they are okay. Judo itself is not gonna win you a street fight.

[@moqo]

@@antoinegezod you underestimate the ramifications of head injuries I think. Where did I say Judo would win a street fight. Where in this thread was this ever about street fighting? The OP was talking about throwing with control, if you had practiced Judo (or BJJ that teach standup) then you would understand the point. You do realise BJJ and Judo are essentially the same art seen from a different perspective right?

[@YTStopCensoringFreedomOfspeech]

All these judo techniques are very effective, Jeff was just waiting for him to use them to counter attack. This proves that experience sparring and fighting matter more than just practicing techniques. If Jeff was attacking instead of defending, he would of got caught by these techniques. He would of been in trouble. Jeff is also better on the ground which is why he won most of the time. However, this video proves that many judo techniques are very deadly and are valuable to add as tools.

[@bobbyhidayat8194]

Hey I don't think he's over-commiting. If he throws you with full strength, it would actually be very painful for you especially for throws where he adds in his weight in the momentum. During randoris I got thrown by a black belt and while it wasn't that painful, I still feel pain throughout my entire body and that is with him taking easy.

[@30035XD]

Add throwing the guy straight down and landing on his ribs to that.

[@Jabbadabut123]

If he lands on you with that uchi Mata instead of trying to be a good partner then he might not have had the overcommitment issue a lot of judo guys have on the throw but of course it’s very frowned upon to land on your partner after you throw them since it causes A LOT more damage which is unnecessary in a light rolling/sparring session. This happens a lot when judokas train in BJJ where they are trying to throw someone but at the same time not do too much damage since it isn’t the objective. Amazing uchi Mata and amazing groundwork by Jeff!

[@joshuabrant7689]

Exactly striking equivalent is pulling a head kick lol. Puts you in a bad spot precisely because you didn't use power.

[@judobreakdowns7616]

Just to clarify what is happening with that uchi mata. What is shown in the video is not overcommitted. For what they are doing, it's perfectly fine level of commitment. He get's his back because the judoka was actually in the middle of standing up so this is a total misattribution of what happened. If this were competition what I would expect is for the uchi mata to be executed the same or with landing on his chest followed by immediate hold down/submission attempt without trying to stand up. I don't think BJJ players generally have the experience of being thrown full force followed up with immediate newaza. What's done in randori is a very faint approximation.

[@endurojimmy3109]

This is exactly right. I have just written something similar.

[@bronstet]

As a Judoka, I cheered when Jay sent you flying and cried when you outclassed him on the ground and fully expected both of these results. Both fighting systems are great but they do have their strengths and weaknesses. I find BJJ deficient in throws, takedowns and trips and Judo outclassed in the overall grappling game. C'est la vie. I freely vouch for the fact that I am always submitted in grappling by BJJ guys and like poor Jay here, I've very often sent them flying first only to be submitted shortly thereafter. 😕I always tell BJJ fighters I work with that I'm good enough to make you have to work for it, but we both know is winning in the end. It's all good and they should be proud of the work they put in and their abilities. I'm always very happy to work with them and trade Judo for BJJ knowledge. 🙂

[@SINdaBlock411]

in a real fight, on concrete, the fight is over as soon as the jiu jitsu clown gets sent flying

[@bronstet]

@SINdaBlock411 I was just mentioning this in an impromptu Judo seminar to my gym I did this Friday, SINda. After teaching everyone 1 throw from each of the recognized 5 categories, I asked them why we train on mats even when we are only striking or grappling on the ground already and who would like to get thrown on the steel floor under the mats or on the concrete driveway, sidewalk or street outside the front door. This was to give perspective and warn them never to do it in real life unless absolutely necessary.

Not surprising result, BJJ wins Judo if you can avoid stand up grappling and even then it doesn't matter much since there is mats, but in a imaginary street fight situation if a Judoka manages to grab you, and slam you on the pavement, game over.

[@ivanramirez8828]

I can tell you from some unfortunate experience, getting thrown on mats hurts quite a bit if you are not trained how to fall. if you notice, jeff is able to break/roll with the fall very well, which is a skill in of itself. even if he was on concrete, he would have been able to continue fighting because of his excellent fall technique. now for the average guy, being flopped on the hard ground is a ender.

[@MMAShredded]

true!

[@unknownentity8256]

Yes I know from experience what getting slammed on tatami feels like from a judo black belt, you can get K.O'd even. I'm aware also that falling in itself is a skill, one area of wrestling/grappling, sure. Now saying that last part is bit funny to me, that assumes your able to land the same way, it's all circumstancial. Furthermore I think even landing properly could still knock even a trained fighter out, because it's completely different when it's concrete. There is well trained judoka's in competition that are K.O'd cold from a throw, even while landing with technique, but it doesn't matter if you have all the technique in the world, if the circumstances do not allow to use technique.@@ivanramirez8828

Excellent video with a great narration as always. Jay exhibits great control and grace. Most of my judo training was outside of the US where there seemed to be more of a balance between the training of Nage-Waza, Katame-Waza and Atemi-Waza. Judo can be all encompassing if we let it. Sometimes it's ok to turn off the sport mode and go old school;) The judo and BJJ cross training combination is really formidable. I know for me it took over a decade after shodan to really start to scrape the surface in terms of the way these two arts can offer synergies in a fight situation. Jeff, your ground game is becoming very impresive. It is starting to look intuitive and instinctive, nice job.

[@Archone666]

LOVING what I'm seeing here. Excellent and very educational. I do note that a lot of the comments in regards to the Judo throws being deliberately softened as much as possible sound very much like when strikers like myself point out that we're hitting with soft or light contact during sparring. And a lot of the grapplers don't GET that; the Gracies really did mess up people's understanding of what's effective with their hype, just like how karate and taekwondo had people thinking that taking your shoes off before kicking someone was better than keeping them on and slamming someone's head while wearing foot protection. (to say nothing of the misconceptions people started having when it came to ninjutsu. The McDojos had everyone convinced that they could walk around in broad daylight wearing neon colored ninja outfits, insta-winning against everyone they came across :P )

Judo throws peak on the landing then winding down, dues to Judo Ippon scoring system. Meanwhile, Jiu-Jitsu starts from the landing, either redirects the impact momentum or taking advantages of Judoka rolling off to come up, in a sense, using Judo sacrifice throws. Judoka will not accept being thrown on the back and therefore you need to commit 100%. However, with Jiu-Jitsu, most of the guys will accept the throw and wait for the landing so you can peak in mid-air and then slow down and take your time figuring out your preferred position. On landing, I like to frame with far arm to create distance between our hips and land in T off position. This will prevent him from using your momentum to come up, and not right on top of you. It will be a race to see who comes up first but I think you will be at a stronger position, because you can back step and use that kicking momentum to come up. Awesome round!

[@markonovakovic3838]

I really like "this is what I was trying to do" concept

[@homegrownrevolution9350]

Fun video! As much as I love Judo, it always seems to match up poorly with other grappling arts. I think this is because it’s such a specialized system. Not only does it focus nearly exclusively on the standing position, it also makes shooting illegal, a lot like Greco Roman wrestling. And with no gi to grip, it puts Judokas at such a disadvantage in these rolls. I suspect Jeff was playing his standup specifically for the experience of testing his Judo a bit. If he wanted to get thrown less and score more, I’m pretty sure he could have wrestled from stance and made for a different roll all together, but that would have been a much less interesting experience. That being said, I think there’s an exception to the Judo problem. Elite Judokas - top of the food chain players - are a very different breed. They may actually be the most elite grapplers. I’m not sure because we never get to see Olympic Judo vs. Olympic wrestling or ADCC BJJ, but I suspect those guys would actually compete very well in a roll like this.

[@lamesurfer1015]

I'm a wrestler (Folk, Greco, and Catch), Judoka, did 3 amateur MMA fights many moons ago, and a BJJ player. I think what you said is a misconception. The trouble with comparing the grappling arts is that there is no one "format" to do so. Each "grappling style" tests different skills / values, which is reflected in the point system. For example, an ADCC caliber grappler would more than likely get absolutely destroyed in a Collegiate Folkstyle Wrestling ruleset, where pins, escapes, and back exposure score points. You can't fall into the trap of thinking "because Judo guys loose at BJJ, they are bad grapplers." (When actually, you'll find many of them are still pretty good on the ground despite never having taken a day of BJJ). BJJ is not the "universal grappling ruleset." Instead, you have to look at the skills each art values. This is how I look at it: * Judo's specialty is Clothed/unclothed throws, sweeps, and trips. It sub-specializes in upper body submissions and pins. * Greco Roman's specialty is unclothed upper body throws and clinch fighting. It sub-specializes in upper body pin retention * Freestyle's specialty unclothed takedowns and throws, which it does very well. It sub-specializes in pins. * Gi BJJ's specialty clothed/unclothed upper body submissions (particularly Guard). It sub-specializes in gaining position. * No Gi BJJ's specialty is unclothed upper and lower body submissions (particularly leg locks). * Folkstyle Wrestling's specialty is unclothed takedowns, pins, rides, and escapes. A good practitioner of one art should be able to translate parts of their game into similar parts of another grappling sport. It's never 1 for 1, but it can be close. That same athlete then has to develop skills that they aren't familiar with to compete. In my experience it is MUCH faster to develop ground skill than standing skill - but that's neither here nor there. Either way, you can never expect a pure exponent of a sport to dominate another athlete in an area where the other specializes in. Anyhow, I've known plenty of Judokas who within a couple of months, have made the switch to Wrestling, BJJ, or MMA and caught on quickly. I think it's a great "base."

I'm Judoka for more than 30 years now and BJJ player too. At 4:50 it's no over-commitment, he did his Uchi Mata very well (which in a Judo tournament would have made him win by Ippon instantly) and tried everything he could to not fall onto you - what you took advantage from. Also fighting in no-gi styles is a big disadvantage for Judokas, especially in Ne Waza (groundfighting).

It makes sense the BJJ fighter has an advantage in a no-gi setting with BJJ rules. However you would have lost by ippon several times before being able to do anything on the ground under judo rules, and in a self defence scenario on hard floor getting thrown like that also doesn't sound like a nice experience.

[@Benw8888]

Sounds to me like the BJJ vs Judoka fight comes down to how hard the ground is (aka how much damage the BJJ person takes from the throw). Correct me if I'm wrong please.

[@lamesurfer1015]

In a competition? Assuming both are the average Judo / BJJ players? It comes down to a stupid rule called "Duty to Attack." In Judo, you are obliged to fight when standing. This means the Judoka can totally disengage and stand-up, forcing the BJJ player to fight upright. In BJJ, its the opposite, where you are obligated to fight on the ground. If one fighter (willingly or otherwise) goes there and doesn't get back up, you must continue to ground fight. There was a really crazy Russian competition that pitted Sambo/Judo guys against BJJ guys. There was ZERO "duty to attack," which meant that the Sambo/Judo guy would simply walk away if things were not going his way and the BJJ guy would sit down at the slightest hint of a takedown. After about 8 mins of what would be considered stalling in both sports, the Sambo/Judo guy won... by leg lock. Strangely enough, the BJJ guy scored the only takedown IIRC, by sweeping the Sambo/Judo guy from sitting. Following these strategies and if no one was allowed to strike, I'd wager the person who wins is the one that gets the least bored. If strikes were allowed, I'd wager on the Judoka purely because they spend more time standing.

His judo in nogi is so beautiful I want to watch it more please make a video again with him but only wrestling with out the gi with him I want to see you getting thrown again 😅with out going for a leglock , but more seriously I know you have also a good wrestling a with a lot of power on your double leg blast. It would be cool to see how your wrestling matches against his judo in nogi . -I have rolled with many judokas and I did some judo myself and very very few judoka know how to throw with out the gi , I have seen even top world level judoka struggling to use their judo with out the gi. even in MMA there is very few judoka that use consistently their judo ( Karo and Ronda to name them ) but you have plenty of Olympian judoka who don't even use one judo technique in all their match in MMA or nogi. Myself I am want to learn what is the secret to be effective in judo throw why so few judoka know how to use their judo with out the gi , most of the time I try a judo throw to get countered since you offer your back and get a supplex 😂 or a trip . -at 5:00 I strongly disagree with you here ,yes usually judoka overcommit their throw because of the judo rules but here he didn't, at 5:00 after the uchimata , he was clearly on top controlling the position and balanced , you just find a leg entry after the takedown because you are the better one on the ground but I get it, you wanted to show the difference between our sport and judo and I respect that since people will learn thanks to you 🙏.. -You have been my favorite MMA channel for a long time I followed you for years now and now you are about to be my favorite bjj channel which is my first love 😂. You have a big Yt channel now but you still take time to respond to the comment section like int he beginning . Jeff you a truly an awesome human !❤ -Please make us more bjj content by the way your ground game have just improved tremendously I saw your evolution . I love you style because you are what Firas called an "universal grappler ". You have a similar style of grappling mixing well traditional bjj, wrestling and modern bjj with leglock . I hope to see other rolling footage and someday with firas again to see your evolution ! I hope to see you compete in a grappling tournament someday . Thanks you again Jeff ,you are an inspiration for me and you can be very proud of what you have all done !💪

Awesome video. What art should I start with?

[@MMAShredded]

Muay Thai or karate for striking and bjj/wrestling for grappling!

5.04 'The issue with Judoka is they overcommit on their throw' Perhaps. But I believe, he also didn't master follow up after throw, transition from throw to Bjj. That doesn't mean he's not a good Judoka, since he doesn't have to transition. In Judo competition, he can refuse to go to ground, by staying out of reach, then the referee would reset it. Judo thought to civilian is different then in military. But it's rare that a soldier can go through competition without dq. So normally they just didn't sign up. As a result people don't even know.

[@x3gxu]

Do you find front choke at 3:15 effective? Is it legal in bjj? Don't really see it being used, that's why I'm asking

[@pennc81]

You talking about that "r*pe choke"? It's not effective to actually finish, that's why you don't see it. However, it is effective to get your opponent to react and bring their hands up to defend so you can move to a higher mount and set up armbar/triangle.

[@MMAShredded]

haha no not effective at all I was just trolling him for a second

[@mahdman3]

Nice!

5:04 The only issue with overthrowing is training on padded mats and overthrowing. On da streetz its not an issue

[@JudoP_slinging]

You could probably amend the statement to "the problem with judo *in a bjj/mma environment*". For non-grappling-trained opponents, especially on hard surfaces, concrete, hardwood flooring etc, I wouldn't imagine overcommiting throws to be a problem at all.

[@bobronsons5780]

I'd like to see more videos with Judoka who actually know how to TRANSITION well from tachiwaza to THEIR newaza :P

[@billcipher3946]

A great one is Travis Stevens who’s a judoka Olympic silver medalist and a BJJ black belt, given by John Danaher.

[@donttouchme1978]

Its hard to find, judokas are usually very bad at this type of transition because the judo rules.

[@justaname935]

love it- more with judoka sambo people is wonderful

[@DaniloCatania-vm7nb]

Sanda here, I find myself in the same position when I stand up grapple in jitz , I get the takedowns but I dont want to land on peoples ribs so I leave this room that a bjj guy can capitilize on

[@tinybatmanname9476]

Judo is so sick. It was my primary form of getting people down before I got into wrestling. As i’ve gotten better at wrestling I completely see why wrestling is so dominant in mma etc. I now see judo more so as a great compliment to wrestling instead of being a primary takedown method. But that’s just me.

[@MMAShredded]

cheers!!

[@lamesurfer1015]

I still swing back and forth. At this point I've picked up enough Greco, Judo, and Folkstyle to mix and match. I don't even see it as "moves" or "mindset" as much as tools for different situations. Each sport has situations that pop up more often and therefore you find yourself using those tools more often. For example, I find myself using uki waza (lateral drops), tawara gaeshis (chest wrap) and sumi gaeshis in wrestling. I use a lot of Uchi Mata and Sasae in BJJ. I primarily use Osoto, Sasae, and inside trips in Judo. Although, when I'm tired or going up against a physical beast, I tend to start thinking like a Judoka. Also, in MMA I use "No-Gi" Judo almost exclusively.

[@tinybatmanname9476]

@@lamesurfer1015 Nearly the same for me. Not a big Osoto guy but I respect those who use it. Sasaes are the most underrated form of takedown. The versatility of them is wild

[@Lec_Go_Klemp]

What do you think about Judo for street defense? I've been fighter few years (not competitior anymore) and i think Judo is great for street.

[@30035XD]

From my experience It doesn't work against people who are skilled at striking, armed individuals, those significantly larger than you, or when facing multiple opponents (In other words, every time you get jumped, as they will ALWAYS have the advantage on you. Playing fair is poor strategy). When your opponent falls into any of the categories previously mentioned, trying to get close for a grab is usually not a great idea.

[@billcipher3946]

That guy has an amazing tachi waza. More and more i could imagine to ever develope mine. But his ne waza, also confronting it with others judokas, it's not too developed. Especially, by the others, he didin't worked on transition from throwing to the workground. He throw but he didin't get an advantaged position after in the groundwork, as it should be also in Judo trained for competitions.

[@nunoalexandre6408]

Love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@mildlyfeasible]

Overcommiting to a throw is a double edged sword in my opinion. In real life, a fully realized throw is often enough to end a fight and stay safe. On the other hand, if it does go to the ground, you had better be prepared for what it will become afterwords.

[@maxk880]

ANY good judo gym will teach how to finish on the ground, only bad judo gyms don't have a lot of newaza thought in my opinion.

[@sanjitjashan]

Your BJJ is next level…awesome

[@MMAShredded]

Thx!!

[@umeshurocks]

After the judoka got a good throw it should have been restarted for realism, as that is a finisher if it were a hard surface such as pavement and is thrown with intent.

[@MMAShredded]

true!

[@RAPEDBYBLACKS]

Bullshit. I’ve been slammed on concrete before and with adrenaline you stand right back up.

[@KrzOstr]

What is the win condition of a Judoka with no Gi, on soft matts and no ippon, but submission? There is a low probability to win if you do a throw that enables you to do a juji gatame. But you need to do it as painful as possible to have a longer reaction time on your opponent that is better trained in what you try to accomplish. The only thing that could have a reasonable chance of winning is a drop seoi nage with the intention to slam his head into the ground. If the other person isn’t well versed in falling they might not be able to react properly. I can’t imagine a situation outside of life and death where this would be reasonable.
