He's not saying judo is superior in itself. He's saying there are more players in the judo game, thus a higher level of competition. And I think he's completly right.
@@mohammedsouali2102 No, in this video it's clear sorry. In another video maybe he says otherwise, then show me the other video and I can comment on it if u need :)
The context of this video is Kayla Harris and Cejudo talking about wich medal is hardest to win, (both are gold medalist) Kayla in judo and Cejudo in wrestling, that’s what Khabib is talking about.
It's so nice to see him talk like this and arguing calmly and explaining. Man I wish he was my friend it's never boring listening to a guy like this speak.
To understand how powerful judo can be in MMA, just look at Islam’s Judo throws and foot sweeps. Judo is underrated & Islam’s judo is so often overlooked!
That's not what khabib meant, he is not saying it's more effective in mma, he is saying the gold medal in judo is more prestigious because judo is more popular in the world and thus the competition is higher at the top level.
It's amazing how Khabib always brings his dad back into the conversation. He loved his father so much. He was always trying to make his father proud. Which he well and truly succeeded...
People somewhat misunderstood what he's saying. He's not saying judo is necessarily better than wrestling but that the skill and talent pool is better because it's become such a prominent Olympic art. The same way karate and BJJ went all over the world, so did judo and like wrestling it's rough and scrappy grappling. So in the Olympics you only get the best of the best in judo and because so many countries compete in it, it's really only the best of the best of the best at the top.
thank you. you explained it beautifully. people often can't hear past the second language barrier. the English speakers are probably most guilty of this.
Judo only respect clean throw and clean submissions. In BJJ or Wrestling, they can have point with leg lace, backtake, or guard pass but not in Judo. Leg lace or Daki Wakare dont have a point, but have one in wrestling
Especially old school Judo. I'm a bjj guy with limited exposure to judo. It's the most complete system for grappling (old way of teaching.. waza and ne waza)
@@aitemirmelisov9748 I'll answer instead:-) I don't know most useful or not, can just retell my father's anecdotal experiences. My step father in the 80's and 90's was a competing judo practitioner, and many a time he had to defend himself on the streets (criminality level was crazy high back then here), and by his words he never had any difficulties even against competing local boxers. He used pretty much pure judo in those fights. Just a one man's story, I bet it's not what you use but how you use it, implementing the skill set you have wisely knowing its strengths and weaknesses
He’s not saying Judo is better than wrestling. He’s simply saying that Judo has much more competitive because there’s way more people competing in it compared to wrestling.
I don't think so. There's no judogi in MMA where you use the opponent's momentum. So what you need to take the opponent down is strength, grip, endurance and technique. Judo allows you to take your opponent down with your opponent's center of gravity and basically you can't wrap the legs, it's restricted in that regard. But freestyle wrestling is two-sided and has a lot more options. For example, double leg takedowns and somethings like that. So Judokas who go outside the rules of Olympic Judo (i.e. Judoka who grasp the legs, etc.) are actually technically going outside these restricted "Judo" rules and becoming like a wrestler. Because of these limited rules, it is difficult for a Judoka to challenge a wrestler with just Judo. The other defense techniques they uses are actually things that are also in Freestyle Wrestling. It is a very close sport, almost all the techniques are the same, but Wrestling is more comprehensive and two-way because Judo has restrictions
@@dogukandogan6554you do realize judo has double legs and single legs? Morote gari and Kuchicki Daoshi? Leg grabs are apart of judo and have always been taught and utilized until 2010. It’s only Olympic style judo and judo clubs that leg grabs are banned. Then there Sambo which is more like old school judo than judo in the Olympics today. Luckily it’s still around and has no dumb sport rules to ban grabbing legs.
@@dogukandogan6554Judo have leg grabbing techniques, not allowed in Olympic doesnt mean they dont train it. You talking about Ruleset not their techniques.
Why do people act like people don't wear clothes, Judo isn't useless because it has gi grips. Many Judo throws and submissions are no gi, and the gi throws have no gi variants. Judo is effective in both MMA, and even scarier in a no rules fight
@@matta1966For someone who dont do Judo, Judo is useless for you. You think Judo is about gi. Judo can be done even without a gi. Most Judoka train no Gi after the class, mostly for fun only.
People forget that the submissions in MMA, ALL of them, come from the jacket arts. Primarily from the historical lexicon of Judo. These techniques did not come from wrestling.
Respect to you Khabib, you are a role model for all young people who want to achieve something, no matter what sport, you have to devote yourself completely to achieve something and work hard 💪👌
Khabib - judo is the best, I played football at a high level: with the Polish national team and the Dutch league, and judo helped me achieve success in all this 💪
Judo has this dynamic with throws that is so efficient as well. The upper body contends with the upperbody while the lowerbody contends with the lowerbody. In this sense I do believe Judo is the most functional for MMA. The only reason we don't see as many Judoka in MMA like we do wrestlers is because the lifelong commitment most Judokas have to their sport, if they can still compete they will compete in Judo. Only a handful of Judokas compete in MMA that are level comparable to Wrestlers. If more Olympic Judokas randomly started training in Muay Thai It would be crazyyyyyt
I didnt like judo until i started learning the no gi stuff and now i even enjoy the gi its very technical. Also i started seeing judo in mma after training for a while and its similar to wrestling but much more upper body throws and sweeps/trips so very useful from the clinch
You can also get Gold in Olympic Wrestling🥇 And It's not limited to Dagestan it's all over world here in India it's very much famous and Practiced since ages
The fact that two gold medalist seeking for Khabib’s recognition which is a better sport is crazy. They must’ve seen something in Khabib. In a room full of killers everybody just listen
Judo uses a person and their strength against themselves. Sweeps, trips and throws. Very technical. Wrestling is pure strength and technique, but I love judo
One time I was at a really high level wrestling tournament with my kid when he was in high school, multiple states involved, multiday, pretty wild. The Jr. Japanese wrestling team was there and decided to join. Turns out they were all washouts from Judo, couldnt even make the B team in judo. They also had never wrestled folkstyle a single time. They all wrestled up a whole weight class because they werent expecting to even be at a tournament. They took 1st, 2nd in every single weight class, except for maybe 2 3rd placers. Judo isnt "better" than wrestling, but the level of competition in Judo at the top is astronomical.
He’s not saying judo is better than wrestling, but competition in judo is more difficult than wrestling because of the amount of players and countries that participate in this game . He is right.
Important part is - you should be able to hold clothes. If it's winter judo wins but during summer when people wear t shirts it's freestyle wrestling. Holding by clothes is much easier
Il a entièrement raison le judo c'est la base le jour où un mec va arriver et battre tous le monde en MMA grâce au judo no gi ! tous le monde sera choqué par la technique ❤🎉 j'ai hâte d'assister un jour a cela !! Un fantasme guer!!!
I've been doing Jiu Jitsu for a while (4.5 years) and have a blue belt in it, but then, 2 years ago, when I was I white belt, I read about the OG Gracie vs Kimura fight, which was dominated by Kimura, and I recall Kimura or one of his guys saying that the softness of the mat is one of the reason their throws were not decisive in neutralizing Grandmaster Helio Gracie right away, and it clicked in my brain that in a real fight on the street where no mats or soft surfaces exist, no matter how good I would get in Jiu Jitsu, a wrestler or judoka would beat me up easily if they land a great takedown from the get-go. The more I went to the Jiu Jitsu gym, I realized that some time in the 1980s, BJJ stopped caring that much for takedowns, and focused more on the rolling that comes afterwards, with the assumption that you will be taken down by the other guy and he would try to mount. So I kept doing Jiu Jitsu, but I started attending one Judo class and one Sambo class per week. I was being decimated, especially in Sambo which turned out to be basically rough Judo... 2 months later (only 8 classes all in all), my Jiu Jitsu got so much better, and started tapping blue and purple belts right then and there. No martial art is ever complete on its own.
NBA analogy in terms of number of team (competition): Judo is like modern NBA, while wrestling is like the 50s NBA. So Judo is a higher level competition than wrestling.
Unfortunately judo got weaker after altering their rules. For example they don't allow double leg takedowns anymore. They removed it because of Russian judokas dominating, being well versed or having background in freestyle wrestling and Sambo.
Hes right a High Level Judoka can Beat the Best Wrestlers & other Grapplers! Watch Sakuraba he Defeated the Gracies when everyone tought the Gracies were Unbeatable!
