Highlights - Moscow Grand Slam 2012

[@mihaylovic1]

Ilias Iliadis - he's the strongest judoka in his weight! it's amazing!

[@TheOlekok]

Iliadis THEBEST!

[@sugarpill6006]

Elite Judo players can simply adapt to a new mindset, if the rules required them to continue into a controlled position on the ground after a throw. These are world class athletes, who have had to change the way they do Judo from every time the IJF changed the rules, and made restrictions.

[@DragonMiniLips]

Iliadis FTW!

[@judokid788]

Look at the IBJJF World Campionships. The medal winning matches don't just have clean subs, or are decided by points advantage. Same with Judo. The top guys here are so good you can't just throw them "perfect". A lot of the time it takes putting someone on your back and then trying to put your back on the ground to throw someone for any point at all. Also you have almost zero control of the other person while being thrown, while the thrower (usually) has very good control of the person.

[@WakeSideLife]

yes.

[@judokid788]

It takes control to finish the throw. The thrower has very good control of the persons arm(s) and shoulders, leaving like 10% chance of ground work with like a 2% chance of finish. If someone attacks me and they don't have control they most likely wont even throw me. In local tournaments however the level of skill is much less and a lot of competitors do unnecessarily give up their back, which I capitalize on with the bow 'n arrow choke, or rolling choke in judo.

[@theredstorm]

You should check your informations. Basiclly, ju jutsu is japananese and means fexibility technic. If you want more informations about ju jutsu and judô you can see a good movie called sugata sanshiro by Akira Kurosawa.

[@williamshatnerpants4240]

If you train it enough, you can do it. This applies for almost anything.

[@sambo958]

--Румянцева класно отреагировала на атаку -сконтрила-НО ошибка- отпустила захват на спине - оперлась на руку-начала сохранять равновесие- подняла себя выше уровня ,-а надо тянуть и прижимать руками и всем весом в татами до конца движения -как бы падать на бок или живот- руки нельзя отпускать!!

[@kaxelidato]

Georgian judoka the best

[@ThePapsy]

Actually Kano took the name for Jikishin Ryu Judo and more correctly Judo that is widely practiced today should correctly be called Kodokan Judo...

[@BrFelo]

Judo is based on jiu jitsu. BJJ is based on Judo. Got it?

[@1ma4ighter]

that last iliadis throw woulda lost him the fight if this was jiu jitsu, he had already put his arm in a kimura

[@gcmercier]

Iliadis is wearing a Mizuno gi? He's used by Fighting Films to promote their own. lol

[@Abkhaz2013]

ilias iliadis are GEORGIAN !!! his name is Jarji Zviadauri

[@005Hink]

че за движения в москве были объясните

[@andynewaza9837]

16:18. Shime Waza!

[@younesssful]

where is sobirov ? he faught in this tournament

[@bornfedslaughter]

thats the same thing I think.. why are they so sloppy with the finishes?

[@waldomarek]

i got nothing against judo, but what's the point of throwing someone and giving your back to your opponent at 9:59? :S

[@jpbjj5998]

opposite, jiu jitsu is based on judo

[@nbkkns]

guys i dont get this... thay get points for throwing the other person and giving there back at the same time... wtf is this? shouldt there be a sesific degree of perfection like throwng some one down and then have full control over the person you threw?

[@despairr]

they could not have possibly gotten a whiter commentator. "UUUCHI MATAH!"

[@judokid788]

Trust me you will never submit someone while being slammed. Otherwise Helio would've gotten Kimura ;)

[@bornfedslaughter]

Judo (to me) looks a little sloppy how they don't finish with a pin and just roll over and lose position. Too sporty for me. Should be more of a fight.

[@jx14aby]

Did anybody break their neck?

[@pepp995]

ILIAS ILIADIS

[@viktoriftodi1499]

ilias iliades samii lutsii dziudaist vmire

[@theredstorm]

bullshit, actually the samuraïs were usin ju jutsu (not jiu jitsu, it's the english translation) and judo appears on the 19th century, created by Jigoro Kano.

[@matrixca1]

oh yes he is a greek hulk :)

[@waldomarek]

so.. any martial art besides mma should be "realistic"? o_O i don't think even mma is realistic, it has quite some rules.

[@danilalutsai9392]

Русские рулят! :)

[@AaronAntony01]

Yet he chooses to represent Greece.

[@sergejsemenov478]

Iliadis is samboka!

[@niababiqarso6593]

Judoka

[@Dovahkiinismean]

Ilias is greek of course......... its in his blood.... although i think that he would like it more when all of their clothes are off when they judo

[@matrixca1]

ye every one knows that but at the moment he is 'greek' :(

[@hakim148]

lol 6:46 teeth in her mouth lol

[@nbkkns]

pls do comment

[@pylyp123456]

no

[@NIKandSi]

Rich little aristocrats competing for the gold...wow, big deal. Illegal leg grab at 12:20? Judo just keeps getting more sissy with each passing year. But, that's what happens when a bunch of spoiled rich kids run the show. The real men, who work for a living, are not impressed. They wouldn't last 30 seconds with a real man, but then this is why it's a private club.
