Full Highlights as Teddy Riner (FRA) wins the men's judo +100 kg gold medal against Alexander Mikhaylin (RUS) at the ExCeL - North Arena 2 at the London 2012 Olympic Games (3 August).
Judo made its very first appearance at the Olympic Games in 1964 in Tokyo. However, it was not included in the Olympic programme in 1968 in Mexico City, but returned, never to leave again, at the 1972 Games in Munich. As for women's judo, it was added to the Games in 1992 in Barcelona.
Men and women now compete in seven weight categories. There was originally a men's category open to all weights, but this event was withdrawn after the 1984 Games in Los Angeles.

[@wateriwity3368]

many here don't understand judo. I'll explain for you: The russian knew perfectly that teddy riner was better than him, so the russian played only defense and just waited for a counter-attack. So teddy riner understood that and did the minimum with the minimum risk to secure an olympic gold medal. And that's what teddy riner got, a gold medal.

[@gonzalosanchezblanco6598]

It's totally legal to win a medal without by doing a technique but it isn't the same like throwing your opponent even earning a that time yuko.

[@Ingvar.B]

Riner was afraid of Alexandr.Teddy is the cheater and spoiler in this fight.

[@miguelarouca4150]

Yamashita, the greatest ever.

[@miguelarouca4150]

If that is the case why didn't Riner get more "shidos".

[@szvqorwnpstahskypfwmp9821]

He(Teddy) is Micheal Jordan of Judo. He is G.O.A.T in Judo. 2 Olympic Gold Medals and 10 World Championship Titles!! Who can top this?? Is there anyone?? I don't think so!!

[@user-vx8jc8ii9p]

Aleksandr Karelin, for example. But Aleksander never fled from his fights, unlike this person.

[@jimlasswell4491]

In 1964 Anton Gesick from Holland who was also 6' 8" won gold in this weight class. He was 285 lbs at the time

[@AmluaNariloo]

Il est très drôle de lire les commentaires de cette vidéo. Déjà, il y a ceux qui n'y connaissent absolument rien ( ceux qui parlent de deux ivrognes par exemple ) puis ceux qui détestent Teddy et qui ne sont absolument pas objectif. Oui je suis Français mais pour avoir fait du judo durant des années, je peux dire que ce qui se passe dans ce combat va bien au-delà du judo. Lorsque vous regardez tous les adversaires de Teddy lors de ces olympiades, aucun, je dis bien AUCUN d'entre eux n'a même essayé de lui contester cette médaille. Avant même que les combats débutent, mentalement, ses adversaires étaient fini. Une telle domination est exceptionnelle. Comprenez bien qu'il n'a pas des poussins en face de lui, ils sont tous de terribles combattants. N'importe lequel d'entre eux peut vous faire voler sans même que vous compreniez ce qu'il se passe, et pourtant, il remporte tous ses combats soit par ippon, soit parce que l'adversaire a, comme le Russe Alexander Mikhaylin, refusé le combat et s'est prit pénalités sur pénalités. Ce n'est pas le fruit du hasard et seuls les mauvaises langues peuvent prétendre le contraire. Après, je suis d'accord. Écraser ses adversaires à ce point, c'est n'est pas très beau à voir sauf lorsque l'on fait attention à la technique d'attaque comme de défense de Teddy. C'est un grand champion. Ceux qui ne le trouvent pas fair play, aller voir ce que le Russe a dit de lui avant le combat, vous comprendrez mieux.

[@jasondehustler4994]

AmluaNariloo C'est youtube. Je ne parle pas francais très bien, mais je peut comprendre que tu ecrivais. Teddy est un grand athlete! Les combats de Riner sont ennuyeuse, parce que Riner es plus grande et forte que tous les adversaires et il peut contrôler chaque adversaire avec le kumi-kata. Le Russe "refusé le combat" parce que il ne peut jamais prendre en main a le gi de Teddy. Mais ca ce n'est pas le problème de Teddy! Mais c'est pourquoi je prefer champions comme Nomura, Koga, Choi, Inoue,...

[@Nolan741_]

le truc c'est que teddy riner pense d'abor a epuise ses adversaire puis leur mettre un joli utshimata ou osotogari et gagner par ippon

[@nezimdjemaoui8315]

tu as raison pour ce que tu a dit

[@user-hc1vi6sb4j]

AmluaNariloo юд

[@honsengaia8075]

Ta raison sur toute la ligne si et si il est plus fort physiquement les autres on cas le devenir plus c'est tout ^^

[@Kalisikaran3]

Dieser Fight zeigt unmissverständlich die physischen Qualitäten eines Alexander Mikhaylin (RUS)!!..Ein Top Judoka!!..

[@JhhrGus]

I'm glad that the International Federation got rid of the 2nd and 3rd referees, and decided that the golden score hasn't a time limit anymore. A match should be won by a technique its points worthy!

[@manualteirac9817]

Teddy Riner est juste une légende du sport de combat mondial et de tout les temps. Il est 4eme exæquo avec un lutteur Sumotori Japonais/Mongol ce dernier juste derriere un Russe en boxe anglaise dont j'ai oublié le nom et Milon de Crotone (période antique) qui est le plus grand combatant de tout les temps et invaincu pendant presque 25ans aux Jeux olympique antique et autres épreuves "mondial" (A l’époque c'etait plutot des jeux méditerranéen), en Pancrace.

[@manualteirac9817]

***** pas son palmarès, jeunot, et en plus il est jeune. Il peu passer 3 eme meilleur combattant de tout les temps.

[@21O966]

Frenchman TEDDY RINER the best JUDOKA on this planet !!!! 7 times worldchampion ! again world champion 2014,olympic champion 2012..seem unbeatable !!!!

[@ATACXGYM]

All of you denigrating these two men, remember this: those guys can literally line up everyone who's commented on this video and finish all of us...in a row...any way they please. Show respect. Or get on the mat with either or both at seminars and get force fed respect for their skills. That is all.

Shut uuuuup

[@platoonmexx9278]

fking 40kg wannabe hmm?

[@joshuapatrick682]

I am sure both are legendary Judokas but whenever you're presenting your sport or martial art on the biggest stage you need to present it well, and they failed at that spectacularly. I do not doubt anything you say about their ability to do precisely that. I do however suggest that this was boring, and I won't be watching anymore judo....

[@xpscape7506]

i doubt it, any pro boxer or MMA fighter would knock them out

[@JackJG_]

judo's amazing and i never noticed that it was this famous, i mean look at the crowd!

[@Angelo-yr1en]

This dude would be the king of UFC if he joined

[@vladimirvladovich1840]

Legendary karate kick at 3:42. Mr Miyagi would have been proud!

[@raugusto395]

Thank You!!!

[@brunivac]

CONGRATULATIONS

[@knarfster]

After studying Shotokan for 30+ years I realize i need some ground game. After watching this I will go learn BJJ.

[@jonathonhazelton8467]

Is that a leg grab at 3:05? I swear it is. That is match!

[@pkrygsman]

Both Wresting and Judo have ground elements to them. Unfortunately Judo often gets stood up very quickly, but you can win by pin or submission as well.

[@chrisdedouai]

Always this two men's !!!! But this always our teddy riner the best of the world!!!!!

[@silvertaurus5996]

They should add only throw to win match with no time limit in some other federation. Like BJJ but with rounds will make it more interesting

[@DatHaji]

i am pretty sure that the sound does not match up with the video. it seems that the video is a good 10seconds behind the audio.

[@EugeneZ.]

I agree, but also these people know what to expect from their opponent.

[@user-sx1qn7lc2o]

The batle of giants !

[@riemags]

Don't be jealous, Teddy Riner is the best judoka of the world, he is 5 time champion of the world. His opponents don't attack because they know that if they attack, they take an ippon. Look other battles... Teddy Riner is the best.

[@trustmeimdolphin2005]

I just realized that I was doing judo when I was in school.

[@Lovecraft204]

He should be in the UFC

[@olamprov]

[@florianromagne159]

Glad too and this will be better for riner this way for sure ! Now other judoka will have to attack and not just wait for counter him ^^ ! all people say riner don't make beautifull judo !Oo it's the +100 kg categorie's guys !!! if one fighter refuse to fight the other just can't fight too . . . have you allready try to move someone who make 130 kg . . . so please respect the winner and the champion. thanks !

[@joeecoollunder]

My judo club has those mats it is so cool me lucky:-) :-)

[@gemukfat7250]

im world taekwondo federation . for me judo is rare martial art

[@PantherxEddy]

Tell you all the truth it's Judo. The point is take him down as best you can solid and clean. Also to counter his moves as well so you won't be taken down.

[@washibujutsu6756]

So many other throws came to mind. Why was he a one trick pony? But that was a tough match. Teddy Riner much respect.

[@JeanDardet]

so much haterzz here damn

lols i didn't even realize that...the guy put so much effort into it, that he just had to "let it all out"...

[@user-sb6zi5sf8o]

yudo not only power

[@Noviets]

I was thinking they should send one of the dudes at the guy with the horn. Then after watching the video, I realized they're just likely to hug attack him.

[@TheAndouille99]

trop fort

[@melowkangy1014]

Nice

[@bl4ckdaymon]

Il faut le comprendre aussi, il a déjà perdu une finale de championnats du monde (toutes cats) contre Daiki Kamikawa (2010) au golden score. C'est après cette défaite qu'il a revu sa stratégie et décidé de ne plus rentrer dans le jeu des adversaires, son objectif étant la victoire, même s'il ne fallait pas mettre de ippons flamboyants

[@davidtrinh7318]

And not a single throw was seen...

[@xcountrycowboy]

I'm surprised no Judo Chops were used

[@joshuapatrick682]

Well that was anti climactic. I am sure both these men are the best Judokas in the world but they didn't display thier sport or portray it in a favorable way to the world audience.

[@KyleLahner]

I don't get it. He never got him to his back why did he get a point?

[@powerclank1367]

Old rules: after 2 yellow cards he gets 1 pt; after 3 he gets 10 pts. Now the first 3 cards don't give points anymore.

[@user-eg4vx8yz4h]

松本さんは言う。 「木村政彦、ヘーシンク、ルスカ、そして山下泰裕、この中で最も強かったのは木村政彦だ。スピードと技がずば抜けてる。誰がやっても相手にならない」と。 身長198体重120kgのヘーシンクに勝てるなら身長204体重131kgのテディリネールにも勝てるだろう。木村政彦先生は

[@sladewilson8673]

3:03 you could have easily done a succor takedown.

[@sparkyk24]

To all the people complaining that it's boring: if you want exciting, go watch smaller weight classes.

[@Alex861697]

sparkyk24 most of the smaller classes are ridiculously boring, its like watching ten pins smash against eachother..

[@vasanthsurya9232]

i think its the most boring fight ive ever seen

[@florianromagne159]

you understand nothing ! olympic games is the biggest competition in Judo, i'm french and i know that so much pressure was on his shoulder ! he had to win even if he had to make a poor judo like we see in this video ! please don't say judo is boring by just watching a video ! at the olympic game judoka don't make judo for win, but for not loose that the point !! teddy riner is a all strength fighter !!!!! pfff let me laugh did you see the last five year of (+100) judo and how can you tell that !

[@asparuhstoev7524]

Not that easy when your opponant continuously refuses the fight and runs backwards so any move will end outside the combat zone and won't count.

[@johnnyruby3904]

I don’t get it.

[@aza091234]

Honestly this mostly just looks like 2 drunk people fighting, Judo isn't as exciting as I expected it to be...

[@MrSartou]

"judo" isnt only +100kg

[@Angel77300]

+100kg is more technical and strength than explosive fight.

[@randomdude5757]

When you don't know a thing about it, yes it totally looks like that.

[@Sasha45506]

have you ever done judo ???

[@aza091234]

Sasha Karlov No, no I have not.

[@florianromagne159]

Go see the final of Paris grand slam 2013 and try repeat what you just say . . . THIS IS ALL-STRENGTH FIGHTER REALY ?!!!! Pls stop speaking MEN WAKE UP THEY ARE IN +100 kg !!!

[@redouaneadam6501]

Je suis un simple spectateur mais je crois que ce sport doit évoluer pour être plus spectaculaire et éviter ces combats ennuyeux. Par exemple, on peut changer les règlements de telle sorte que les adversaires ne devraient pas se toucher les mains pour empêcher l’autre d’engager le combat. Toujours le moins favoris utilise cette technique.

[@paul78890]

après c'est un combat en +de 100kg donc c'est la catégorie la plus "lente" .Après si tu va dans les moins de 81 kg la ça sera plis dynamique. Et en plus le russe se prend des fautes parce que justement il refuse le combat mais ça ne suffit pas en effet

[@honsengaia8075]

Le Judo est tres Bien comme sa c'est juste que Teddy Rinner est tres Fort sur le Kumi KAta c'est tout

c est du judo ? ou du sumotori ?

it's not boring it's really hard sport i bet u can't even hold 1 lesson

[@odysseasoikonomou3493]

sorry i was meaning if you are boring of judo

[@HaykAmirbekyanTKD]

what are the rules?? why dont they go for the legs?

[@live4bass868]

they removed leg grabs because too many wrestlers were coming to judo and refusing to learn judo and just grabbing legs and pushing. You could at this time grab the leg if you were off balance or had a double side grip. Basicly one throw on your side mostly to your front is a yuko on your side more to your back is a wasari and on your back is an ipon 15 second hold down is also a wasari and 20 seconds is an ipon you can have unlimited yuko two wasari to an ipon and an ipon for the match. penalties 2 = yuko 3=wasari 4= ipon and you loose the match

[@IanPilgreen]

How exhilarating! Said no one. Ever.

[@Foggen]

In Rio 2016 during the 65kg bronze medal freestyle wrestling match, an otherwise aggressive and respectable Mongolian wrestler ran away, blocked, and celebrated early like this. His opponent was given a penalty point and thus the match. That result is more consistent with real sportsmanship than this.
