Which takedown do you prefer?

[Fat Donkey]

Whom r u fighting? Against amateurs i use wrestling, especially single leg takedowns, against wrestlers and MMA guys I use the the tie-up/dirty clinch to the hip throw (judo), also as a counter attack. Against the good judo guys, I lose. or I use these really crazy takedowns from kali and movies. They r so outrageous they actually work sometimes

[P.A.L]

God vid. Thanks for that!

in a wrestling match you usually need the penetration step but on the street you might skin your knee and your opponent can't sprawl anyway so the bend down low works well.

I didn't realize we were talking about the street! Leg kicks, knee strikes and chokes are your best friends.

I use whatever meshes with what the opponent offers at the time. That's what Jiujitsu is all about. If it's ko soto gari that's fine, if it a flying armbar, that's fine too. I don't care how advanced the fighter is. The only real difference between the beginner and advanced practitioners are the size of the mistakes they make. In my experience, the most basic techniques tend to be the highest percentage (not unlike the o goshi you mentioned).
