How about....Because Regular competition Judo or judo "the art" doesn't mean a damn thing unless you know how to apply it when you've got trained professionals swinging at your face and kicking at your body.

Some of those asbestos ceiling tiles are missing. I guess some of the slam throws get tossed purty high...

How does the Karo poem about Judo Throws go again?

I wasn't talking about gi or no gi. I was talking about the technique. He shows variation and not breaking the move down. I don't understand why would anyone want to throw sloppy, instead of learning correct technique and then perfecting it. Please, name me one BJJ fighter or wrestler who uses uchi-mata, saionagi, osoto-gari in their fights. None of them do, cause these are difficult moves to actually implement without constant practice.

i like the wrestler version of the shoulder throw (we call a japanese arm wizer)

I totally disagree. I think anyone can do these moves, but the execution will be much sloppier. If you think about it, take away the gi, and the physics behind the throw remain constant (the same). The gi is useful for "tightening" up your technique, and learning the finer points of the throw. But as for simply learning the fundamentals of leverage, momentum, etc., it is absolutely possible to learn it no-gi. Wrestlers do it, BJJ guys do it...

this 10 min. instruction is pointless. none of them will be able to do any of these moves he showed without formal Kodokan Judo training, because they don't understand concept and physics ot these moves.if they want to be able to apply judo throws, they need to take judo instructions from a judo Master, not Karo. Drop Saionagi is a dangerous move for someone who can't do even normal saionagi. That uchimata variotion is a good idea, but it will work only against a noob. IMHO

Very informative thanks Karo throws do add more to your game, but like he said it take a while to master them
