Judo Japan: Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Expert Yuki Nakai approves Uta Abe of the Women’s National Team

[@davidross3496]

Thank you for the subtitles! Yuki Nakai is a legend, and while it's unfortunate that his own career got cut short due to an illegal eye gouge in the 1995 Vale Tudo Japan tournament, it's incredible to see him come full circle and to now be teaching jiu-jitsu to the National Team. People can waste their time arguing about judo vs BJJ, but it seems that the top competitors in each sport go out of their way to cross-train the other.

[@greasebob]

Yes indeed. I am a BJJ black belt and have the utmost respect for good judokas. A combination of judo and jiujitsu techniques = the most complete gi grappler.

[@marceloisoni9158]

Every country from East Europe cross train with their traditional grappling styles, weather is mongolian's wrestling, georgian's chidaoba, kazaquistani's kurash and many others. It's stupid not to do so. Judo they all know.

[@danielrathbun8380]

Honestly, the coolest thing was to see Yasuhiro Yamashita and Yuki Nakai greeting each other. I would have loved to see Yamashita (or Saito) in the first UFC.

[@Sr.D]

I love judo and jiu jitsu cross training

[@manudivertida1325]

Aqui no Brasil Yuki Nakai é lembrado e respeitado pelos lutadores mais antigos e por todos que conhecem sua história.

[@Nikolashamolodec]

Yuki Nakai best fighter!

Love Japanese judo girls. Nice video.

[@davicassiano8561]

É interessante ver que os japoneses, ao contrário de outros, não deixaram o jogo do chão.

[@nrxmonk]

Damn Yuki, BJJ is more than just similar roots to Judo! It is Judo!!

[@m5a1stuart83]

Yuki Nakai himself is a Blackbelt in Judo before he got submitted by Rickson Gracie. He later join BJJ to learn more about BJJ

[@aluisiofsjr]

@@m5a1stuart83 , and if you look on the marketing side, he is a pioneer of BJJ in Japan. He can get a lot of students, because he is not competing in the same market of thousands of Judo dojos.

Se llama kosen judo

[@geoffberesford]

It's sad to think that many of these young judoka's Olympic ambitions have been delayed by the global pandemic insanity, so let us hope that their dreams of competing on the world stage will eventually come to fruition. I wish them every success in doing so.

[@TAROTAI]

Human beings are not the most important part of Universal occurrences - they are actually the problem & deserve whatever the Universe puts out - wake up!

[@geoffberesford]

@@TAROTAI Wake up yourself, Mr! I grant you that those among the masses who are not awake, as such, will unfortunately have to take the consequences of what is being planned by those in power. If you are suggesting that human beings in general are dispensible and have no purpose on this planet, then you are clearly just as bad as the psychopaths who are currently pulling the strings.

The covid fairy story is still continuing!

[@geoffberesford]

@@peterreid9769 Exactly so, as many of us knew it would do. It is almost as if the mass hypnosis plan is unstoppable.

Oh yeah I had four days of cov and not four or five experiment shots .

[@karlbryant5706]

Brazilian jujitsu is derived from Japanese. It’s not them who is the original

[@greasebob]

Only the ignorant attempt to dispute that. The Gracies freely admit they were taught by the Japanese.

[@colosso7521]

​​@@greasebob BJJ is Judo Kosen who Jigoro Kano fortunately taught to Gracie's before he gets pissed off about Kosen Judo guys defeating normal Judo guys on ground and deleting everything on ground .

[@greasebob]

@@colosso7521 Kano never taught the Gracies.

It is the Japanese that promote MMA via Judo spreading all over the globe by challenging other arts.

Why shameful?

[@pauloomss]

@@mism2897 here in Brazil is pretty common for judokas and BJJ practitioners to cross train. We do not hate each other like some people in the internet. Were I train we used to have judo and BJJ sessions at tbe same time on the same mats. We were even invited to do some no gi with the judokas.

[@aluisiofsjr]

@@pauloomss , very probably it is some of those BJJ haters. There are many of those Judo Keyboard warriors...

[@jorgep102]

Clown why shameful? A olympic gold medalist and a legendary fighter training together is shameful for you? Hahahaha such a clown
