My friend trained Judo in Japan some time ago. We're from the States. He said our training methods are vastly different. His school at the time focused a lot on technique. While his training in Japan was randori-based at his level. He said some days they did nothing but randori for three hours straight

There's one style, Travis Steven, he emphasized on grip fighting

Akiyama once said in an interview that the main difference between korea and japan (at the time of the interview) is: while he was coming up in japan was that the japanese stressed tradition and traditional grips. The koreans didnt care. If a technique worked they used anything.

Makes sense

The Koreans got what martial arts really is. A method of fighting

[@Kitajima2]

I don't think it quite accurate to say it's about tradition. We view it as fundamentals. No matter how much you visualize a creative set of moves in your head, you're not going to get there against an equally matched opponent who can do it without thinking

Thank you John

[@fernandohsantos]

Brazilian Judo has a very strong influence from Japanese Judo. Actually, Judo sprout in Brazil within Japanese colonies, and for a long while Brazilian Judoka were naturalized Japanese, nissei or sansei (even today, and we see a similar effect in the USA and Canada). So, in Brazil the Japanese Kodokan Judo is the model. Of course, more and more Brazilian Judoka are cross-training with BJJ, which is actually going back to Kano Ju Jitsu roots, making a real rescue to the art. In my humble opinion, the weakness of Brazilian Judoka, as well as other sports practitioners, may be a somewhat fragile mindset, being very hot-blooded, and easily disturbed by outer effects or any sort of problem. The best Judoka in Brazil tend to be the ones who learn to be the coolest in their feelings.

[@Chadi]

I agree

[@theItalianshamrock]

I dont know the rules of judo... but why is the Brazilian going for submissions like it is jiu jitsu while almost all the other countries the fighters will throw or take down their opponent then stop..? Im sorry if it is a stupid question but i have never actually watch judo, only some short clips

[@fernandohsantos]

@@theItalianshamrock actually, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Judo have different rules set. In Judo if you throw your opponent clean on his back, its scored Ippon and the bout is over, like a KO. In Judo Ippon can be also achieved by immobilizing the opponent for 25 seconds, submission, penalties or tow wazari (almost Ippon) scores. In BJJ throwing successfully only gains 2 points, and the bout is over only by submission.

[@theItalianshamrock]

@@fernandohsantos oh ok thank you! I saw highlights of judo with mostly throws so i was confused to see ground fighting and submissions

[@vittocrazi]

@@theItalianshamrock its because of the ippon, dos Santos said before. but this happens then the Ippon is very apparent. if there is a pinch of doubt, most of the time they will try to transition into a favorable groundowrk position as quick as possible, sometimes landing submissions in less tan 2 seconds from the execution of the throw.

I never realized there were different “styles” of judo!

[@jamescooper1968]

You should talk about the changes since "Internet Judo." In fifty years, I have seen Judo change so much because of media. It started with video recorders and VCRs, when it wasn't just learning "teacher to student." I remember when Sankaku Jime was introduced--we learned it by watching a tape and practicing in a guys living room. Now, with the internet, techniques and ideas are transmitted almost instantly. Thus, "Internet Judo."

[@igorlacava1337]

Man, if a person knows how to use it correctly, it is a gift from life. But, if someone is passing through the same thing as I am, it is a virtual disaster. Because you are in contact with so many techniques or ways to do the same thing, that it confuses you. You reach the point you really don't know which technique you saw is the best for you to practice. And trying all of them is out of question. It so easy access, that gets you on a hard point of which move picking up to practice.

I never thought of it like that before, but it really makes sense that your physical stature transitions into your style of grappling. If you are bigger built, you will tend to use more brute strength and the other way around. Where do you find the most heavily, tall built people in the world? In general I believe it is in Caucasia, Central Africa and also Scandinavia. It makes sense that, in general, their style would reflect their approach to grappling.

[@mattcollins9499]

Hi Chadi, Great video. I love all your content. This is a tough topic to cover you did it great! I'm not Georgian, just a fan of their Judo. Maybe this was covered in a comment below. Many techniques commonly used by Georgians on the IJF circuit come from their national wrestling Chidaoba. If you watch some chidaoba matches the sleeveless jacket leads to armpit + over the back on the same side grips. The result is a makikomi vs ura nage battle, making both of those positions/technique very strong and comfortable for Georgian fighters. My humble opinion is Georgia leads the world in output of high quality judo players (many who represent other countries too) divided by population. Thanks and looking forward to your next video!

[@BrenoviskxD]

i dunno about you guys, but here in brazil all judo classes that i took, it was always some judo and jiujitsu action, the randori dont stop sometimes when you fall on the ground, it continues until submission. Obviously is not everyday... but 3 times in a week the randori goes like that

[@teemun3979]

I believe that this is becoming more popular in the US as well in nonprofessional circles due to bjj's popularity, at least in my limited experience. Often at my college in the Judo class we will do days with no time limit once it hits the ground or no gi days fairly frequently as well. Given, a good amount of the class also goes to a local MMA gym, so that may impact the decisions some.

[@AChampagneWeezy]

That how we train at my dojo here in st.louis Missouri , but i also told my sensei im aiming for mma .... Plus everyone there crosstrains in BJJ

[@BrenoviskxD]

@@AChampagneWeezy wishing all lucky for you man, i wish i could do the same!

[@ghola0]

That's great, it's a huge drawback that in most Judo clubs around the world, in the regular tachiwaza standing randori, you must stop when it hits the ground instead of continue into newaza transition like in real match; often I hear the excuse that it's not safe to have some on ground while others are still in tachiwaza, but it really hinders your ability. On the reverse also, jiujitus clubs often don't allow standing

[@BrenoviskxD]

• yeah... i migranted to jiujitsu 2 years ago and made sure that the gym allows to start on standing position. But even if it is allowed to do so, people starts on the floor anyways 😂😂

Brazilian looked like bjj

[@pedrocabral177]

yes. Flavio Canto actually practiced BJJ in the 1990s to improve his ne-waza. He did not compete in BJJ because it was forbiden by Judo's federation and he wanted to be friendly to different BJJ schools so he didnt want to pick sides. unfortunately he seems to be an exception, most brazilian judokas wont try to make use of this advantage of being close to an advanced ground fighting ne-waza as BJJ. (source: Canto's interview with Fabio Gurgel from May/2020)

[@cagedraptor]

sure , BJJ is Judo. The Gracie family learned Judo and adapted it to form BJJ. BJJ's base style is Judo. It has, at this point, really evolved into a style of its own but it started as Judo.

[@pedrocabral177]

@@cagedraptor I believe they have the same root that is Kano's jiu-jitsu (early name) / judo (later name). But they diverged mainly due to rules. BJJ has no ippon Just points and submission. Judo does "mate" stop If the fight stalls on the ground.

[@meesert]

​@@pedrocabral177 True there is no ipon and there just are a lot of less rules in bjj in general. You can grab legs, go for leglocks and pull guard, just to name a few.

Great video. I'd like to add a few things about the similarity between Georgian and Russian judo: Caucasian Russian judo and Georgian judo are indeed similar because Georgia is in the Caucasus as well. We share some cultural elements and our fighting styles look similar. Russian judokas who are also ethnically Russian, however, such as Pulyaev, Yartcev, Nifontov, etc. are rather different. So, we need to distinguish between the "real" Russian judokas and Caucasian Russian judokas, as well.

Incredible I truly love the awesome highly intelligent graceful ways of Japanese martial Arts. I study both Aikido and Japanese jujitsu. And boxing as well I'm not a real fan of bjj or cage fighting and I have my reasons. I not only am always impressed when I see outstanding feats before my eyes but the spectacular Grace and opened minded spirits that I see from all these. Outstanding martial art styles that where truly made with grace and true art that eminates from the fighters but the true works of art that is the incredible Arts of Japanese tranquility in every tournament I've witnessed thanks to your generosity of sharing these Outstanding matches and specific Arts that demand respect and awe that these artists are showing something beautiful and we'll disciplined and respect that the martial artists that have just a completely good outlook on themselves each other and the breathtaking martial Arts that where given a lot of intelligence century's of perfect cultivation and patience it took to create these masterpieces that are one of the many beautiful tranquil pieces of art created by the awesome artisans that is Japan and the proud honorable self control obedience to there dojos family country there own healthy outlook on life and self respect in a kind and peaceful outlooks on life it warms my soul to know there is a beautiful place with good honest respectful poetic people that create masterpieces. I know I went on a bit much but I speak from the heart . in America there's none of that nothing but dishonest barbaric people I'll be perfectly honest I can't stand the careless acts of disregard and disrespect of the general population in the states I'll watch respectful tournaments that you've politely put on KZbin which I humbly thank you for. But I will not watch the barbaric brawling spectical that my country upholds. Is cage fighting there supposed to be professional fighters but all I see is criminalistic street brawlers they claim to be mixed martial artists but they can't honestly say they have gone to a respectful dojo or respectful place of training no instead they mixmatch there training which pretty much is glorified street fighting they can't respectfully say or have the honor of mastering. At least one respectful honorable martial art. And I do not recognize bjj as a formidable martial art I don't know why society willingly upholds them in such high esteem there is no jujitsu in that place or any form of judo jmoderate to advanced. Joint locks no throwing or knowledge of pressure points the only fracture move they have is that ridiculous arm bar that you have to be on the ground to attempt it but Brazil really needs to think hard about saying they have there own form of jujitsu I'm a green belt in an actual traditional respectful Japanese jujitsu dojo it's pretty formidable excellent sensei s that don't allow the likes of them in fact I grappled and threw these so called cage fighters that where not formidable in there matches to say the least but they bragged from this world and the next that they knew jujutsu so I called them on it and said I've been in jujitsu for a couple years now I'm not a black belt yet but I know what I'm doing on the matt plus I'm 3 belts up on Aikido long story short they knew was American high school wrestling I recked them from joint locks throwing them around the matt like rag dolls turned them both into knotted up pretzels got one of them in air tight choke hold when I gave them some pretty solid throws they asked me why I was throwing them around and how was I being able to do that I laughed at them and said I'm doing jujitsu what do you think I'm doing you guys thought you where going to hurt me easily you don't know the first thing about jujutsu in fact it's pretty obvious that you don't know that much about wrestling either. But long story short I don't have much respect for cage fighters or Brazilian jujutsu. Instructors or there students either there flat out taking credit for knowing jujitsu and judo training as well there light free style wrestlers at best and there Gracie training facility's are redicoulsley expensive and there not only being dishonest by telling the. Students that there teaching them jujutsu when there not even teaching them a fraction of basic grappling . I try to warn people to not fall for it I try telling them go to my 2 dojos it's a night and day difference they'll actually learn jujitsu or. Aikido or boxing I do all 3 and I'm learning A lot from excellent instructors and a badass boxing trainer who loves the fact that I'm a formidable southpaw it's perfect he knows how to train southpaws he told me if your as hungry for it as much as I've shown and progressed in my abilities he 'll start setting up matches for me it makes me feel awesome that he sees heart and ability in me I feel pretty stoked about it he already has me sparring with guys that have been competing and winning sometimes I beat them or break even or give them a real run for there money let's put it this way each time they get in the ring with me they know they've been in a fight

[@intersportasia9521]

as a bjj practitioner, looking at the brazilian portion of your video, that's exactly how you'd fight in a bjj match. If you didnt say it was a judo competition and showed it to a bjj guy, he wouldnt be able to tell it is a judo fight. For example, I can see lots of guard pull into submission attacks. Or sometimes we blend takedown with submission. Though generally speaking, when taking part into judo matches or training, we are encouraged to use more "judo techniques" and just leave at the door (as much as possible), our BJJ techniques and ne-waza, so we can expand our tool box and experience. Travis Stevens did that too when he came to BJJ, he didnt capitalize on his judo to wreck people, he tried to "do jiu-jitsu" as much as he could.

[@hurbit123]

Hi Chadi, as usual.... your vids are such a pleasure for every judo afficionado. What about the different training styles in different countries? For example the extreme high number of uchi komi and throwing repetitions of the same technique by the japanese vs. the europeans, as well very different ways to do strength and flexibility exercises of japanese vs. other more western geographies. Getting thrown 100 o soto garis in a row makes you tougher than any gym exercise. This might be very interessting to see. When we sometimes had a japanese guest sensei for a while, the difference became quite obvious. As well I find very important the young child judo training here in Europe is unfortunately a total joke compared to Japan.

Spain Based on press articles from the time, a certain "count koma" toured Spain at the beginning of the twentieth century. The south of Spain, specially Cadiz and the northwest, the region of Galicia, had a Judo with an specially strong ne-waza. This was attributed to said Count Koma who supposedly introduced it. In most recent decades the influence of the Spanish Judo Federation centralised in the country's capital, Madrid, has turned into a Judo mostly oriented to the olympic competition. But there are some private clubs that first keep that ne waza tradition and afterwards, focus in other aspects. It would make sense considering who that Count Koma quite probably is. Just an anecdote of how one person can influence Judo all over the world.

When you provide names in your videos could you also write them in the description, some of them are hard to spell for us western viewers

[@rawr2u190]

Not a Judoka here, just enjoy your videos. I wonder if Russian and Georgian preference on strength comes from their Soviet history. The Soviet Union put a lot of development into strength training for Olympics and a lot of highly regarded strength training manuals come from former communist nations. Even now, this has contributed to their performance in the sport of Weightlifting.

It does have a relation

I second your opimion

[@southernstyle228]

I never knew you could do more than throws.

[@giordanofriasmartinelli2407]

Hi, Chadi. First of all, congratulations on your work. As a Brazilian I disagree a little bit about your review on the brazilian style. Sure, we do have some contribution in the transition to neowaza, which was influenced by Flavio Canto. However, I don`t think that tis is our major trait. Originally, judo practiced in here had lot to do with the japanese style (São Paulo is the city with most Japanese living outside japan): good posture, sleeve and lapel grip, technical. Tiago Camilo and Leandro Guilheiro are examples of this school. As years go by, some people started to incorporate a style based on the eastern europe, such as João Derly and Mayra Aguiar. So, I would characterize brazilian judo as a mix between japanese and european

@@Chadi Can you say something here? In Israel Judo is one of the very few Olympic sports where we actually succeed sometimes so it's a big deal for us. I do parkour myself so would like to learn

[@Ifm390]

No offence but USA a great judo power? They had 2-3 ( travis, ronda) good performers. It doesn’t really come across as a judo country, especially when I hear my european friends fighting there. They were not very impressed. As the new rules in judo give room for ne-waza and even traditional countries lacking in that area improving in that area ( Japan, Korea) I don’t see them excelling any time soon.

I curious your opinion on the Taiwanese style of Judo! I suspect it is very similar to Japanese...

[@phil245]

I know this is late as hell, but anyway. I'm new to judo, really enjoying watching the abe's so far. What is it that makes them different from japan generally? I always think they're very explosive and fairly aggressive - is it that they tend to create openings rather than wait for them? That would seem similar to how you described korean style imo. Thanks to anyone who might respond

[@dan8085]

Wait, why did you leave out the Cubans? Also, the Dutch have historically had pretty good judo as well.

Cubans for sure have a unique grip where they stand right handed and grip left handed or vice versa. Really good against same sided opponents.

In my opinion I think the Russian, Georgian and Mongolian Judo are technically similar. I think they have same kind of grips and timing when it comes to randori practise.

As a beginner judoka I tried to follow some styles by analysing different matches on IJF website, but couldn't found any who explained it to me until I came across this video.anyhow I want to know your ideas regarding Turkish and Iranian judoka because both are great in wrestling plus Turkish people have their own wrestling; they wrestle wearing something as same as the Mongolian but with olive oil over all their body. So what do you think about the Iranian,Turkish, American and Canadian judo? Thanks in advance!

[@Chadi]

Turkish iranian is close to mongolian, Americans use very fierce gripping style

[@Yupppi]

That match between Stevens and Canto where Stevens just laughs while they wrestle on the mat and actually gives him a legit challenge unlike the other clips. I understand they were regular adversaries. Maybe that's also why Stevens was so unorthodoxically focused on newaza while to me it seems like many others wouldn't even touch the mat. My perspective to US judo (through Stevens and perhaps Pedro) is that they're extremely analytical. Their goal is to have a throw from any grip and also have their favourite throw from any grip. They demand a good newaza chain from all. They also really focus on grip fighting but it's not the same as how you described the french. It's more like they analyse what the opponent is allowed to do, they don't necessarily require their favourite grip. They just know their opponent's style and won't allow them to ever have that grip forcing them into their plan b. Also analysing which grips are "safe" and which can lead to something and allow only safe grips or grips that lead to something. And the strategy game, like many times they talk about for example "the only plan against this guy was to take the match to the last minute at any cost, shidos are ok if they prevent ippon from happening. If I could take it to the last minute, I would win, they would get nervous and start trying stupid things" or another one I heard was "not letting them have their favourite grip would make them try stupid stuff and deliver the match" or "if I didn't do one thing I would have the match, they wouldn't be able to do anything and eventually I'd get my ippon". And one more was making them tired and forcing them into some reflex behavior that they hadn't practiced out, like an example was tiring out some guy who would start doing something like sacrificial throws which would coincidentally be just the opening for what Stevens wanted to do. Supposedly the opponent's coach slapped them after they did that and lost saying "that was the only thing you weren't allowed to do and you knew it". Extremely analytical and specifically on the psychological side, building the strategy on the opponent's invidiual traits. On the other hand Stevens' physique seemed extra-ordinary too, their baseline was that he would never tire out in the match, at least not before the opponent. So he wouldn't have to play that quick and powerful win before the clock judo. He also said how at some point he analyzed his past season's matches and all the guys he had lost to in the tour were against him in the olympic games, but also that he lost none of the matches by ippon. So he got quite a confidence boost realizing he could "do anything and not get thrown". Their social media free educational material has proved invaluable, particularly in peeking inside a top judoka's head.

[@midorihano8357]

Kano Jigoro understood the physics of motion so the technique or waza he created are based on that logics. Japanese are faithfully done in respect to that teaching . The beauty of the many Japanese judoka's come from the beauty of physics in motion !

[@kokoro0807]

Since you train in France what is your impression on French judo style, his strength (grip is one of them obviously) and weakness?

[@Chadi]

Sometimes they use a lot of strength which might not work on everyone

Hey, can you make a video about the banning of Kata Guruma and Morote Garai and the old Judo styles before the rule change about leg grabs? Someone said the IJF changed the rule because they didn’t like the idea of Tüvshinbayar beating Suzuki and others with leg attacks at the 2008 Olympics.

[@Chadi]

I don't know about the Suzuki story but i made this a while back kzbin.info/www/bejne/e6WkYnZ9jLaCm8U

[@RichardYu1983]

Chadi oh nice, I’ll watch it. In that case, how about a video on Wang Ki Chun’s 2012 Olympic experience? I remember he had an extra match because he got a bad seed in the bracket for some reason. Then, he almost had his arm broken in the match before he faced Mansur Isaev. He was already 5-0 against Isaev in competition going into that match but he lost because he had that severe arm injury that affected his gripping. Also, if you can find the video of Wang Ki Chun escaping that arm bar that would be awesome. I looked everywhere online and can’t find that specific match.

[@Chadi]

@@RichardYu1983 I'll look it up

[@vittocrazi]

@@RichardYu1983 it is more plausible that the leg grab was banned from competition because of popularity of the sport and olympic comitee politics than it was from individual competitor's dominance or trends. look up what was going on with wrestling about 2010-2013 and you will figure out why judo couls look less like freestyle wrestling (wrestling also went through changes in this timelapse)
