Is JUDO going to be the new MMA fad now?


Recommended Posts

Well after Karo Parisyans' easy win over Dave Strasser it seems that there has been a rush by folks in the mma community to learn judo or at least there has been a rising curiousity about it. The throws and takedowns that Karo used were great and he made them LOOK easy, but as these people are going to find out they are not easy at all. Especially without the gi. It takes years to be able to do judo as effectively as Karo did in his UFC match and there aren't that many shortcut's to gain the technical knowhow to ad them to your MMA game. What are your thoughts on this topic?

Tapped out, knocked out, or choked out...Take your pick.

Actually Jujutsu has some great throws with out the GI that are worth looking into.

I know that. I study Hakko ryu Jujitsu. Most Aiki-jujutsu styles teach the throws without the Gi, but still rely on the persons clothing to substitute the gi. There are of course some "naked" applications such as the shoulder throw and the head lock throw. Just about all the reaps will work as well. If you saw UFC 44 Randy couture used lots of reaps on Tito Ortiz which was cool. But the kind of throws Karo was doing take a lot of time to master and execute as flawlessly as he did.

I think it has helped judo as far as mma but people are going to soon realize he is getting top notch training and most schools around the world wont train you no gi like he has been doing.

90% of all the throws I've been taught in Budo Taijutsu don't require the Gi or clothes.

no, they don't require a gi, but they are taught with a gi at most places. to do them without the gi requires modifications that not everyone knows how to make. Tai otoshi, for example is one handed when there is no gi. Many people don't think you can do that one without a gi.

 

As far as popularity, judo is the most popular sport in the world, next to soccer.

goshinman, where do you train shuai chiao?

I haven't had a chance to study shuai chiao formally yet. I have David CK. Lin's video tape series and that is how I get training for now. I love it though. If I could get into a school in my area I would quit jujitsu to study it.
