No 1 it is all about the balance (I used to rely on this when I was practising Judo very long time ago). On these days judo is more about brute force than in the past. I still loved, but I believe was more beautiful in the past. 6 and 4 for me is wow/genius. Sorry for my English (is not my native language).
Speaking as someone with a wrestling, muay thai, and bjj background; a skilled judoka, in good shape, was a nightmare to spar with. One guy put me all over the mat so many times that I'd just shoot for a double/single leg as soon as he got too close. I got tired of getting thrown/swept, almost at will. Much respect to those guys. Real competitors
Yeah at the higher levels judoka can be real problems. Not saying I was high level, but I used to go to a BJJ class and only the two black belts could really stop my top game. Nobody could take me down and they were pretty much forced to play guard. Smash passing into side control and then it was either an armbar or I’d take the back, pick your poison. But as a good student always does, I played guard a lot just to learn new things, going back to judo I became much harder to pin. BJJ is great cross training for judoka
@@JudoHighlights2015 iam curious, does wearing a gi or without gi have notable impact on judoka performance? Without gi, can a judoka throw opponent as good as when theyre wearing one? Iam currently learning muay thai and looking forward in getting a judo class. Sorry for bad english
Thanks a lot! good job! amazing video in details. Big pleasure to see georgia in first place of your list. it's a big honnor for all of us. Wish you all the best!!
I went to military school for 4 years from fourth grade through 7th grade. I was always interested in Combat Sports because I wanted to learn how to not get the s*** kicked out of me my whole life. My first year there I joined the wrestling team, and also they had an instructor there who held Judo classes on Saturday afternoons. You had to keep your grades up and your nose clean to be able to go to those classes; it was kind of a reward for good behavior. I really liked the Judo because it fed into my wrestling knowledge and vice versa. I'm 39 now and while I did not continue wrestling or Judo after I left military school I'm really grateful to have that knowledge to be able to handle myself if I get into the occasional scrum.
Super video. It is clear that it took a lot of time and effort to make. Two points I noticed: 1) A lot of left-handed techniques - far more than when I was doing judo 53 years ago. I wonder if this is partly due to the example of the great Yasuhiro Yamashita, and 2) great use of Kuzushi, which was not evident in much of this Olympic judo, which I thought was generally disappointing. Perhaps I missed the best bits.
53 years ago! Those must’ve been some hard trainings. I agree with you about the Olympics. People were too focused on winning and it wasn’t the best judo.
@@JudoHighlights2015 Agree! Probably some Ju Jitsu masters would be able as well, because to my opinion ne vaza requires much more endurance than uke vaza. We had extended fight durations in the past, but a carefull start was tolerated and not punished with shido like today. High level fights were seldom ending with an ippon. Now the judoka is forced to allow the full contact swift and sometimes unprepared in order to avoid a shido which can lead to unforced errors. It is like a time pressure chess game.- even good masters can make a mistake and it is sometimes hard to understand after an ippon was it really a fight between same level judokas, or not, if you don´t know their ranking.
Only second day watching judo. So cool. Yesterday commented about hands, feet. Todays comment about impressive use of hips to generate power. Also as newbee, have to learn the technical differences between various ippons. So cool. Thanks.
Hey, the Olympics and NHK own all the content so I can't make a video for it. If you search for NHK, they have a channel and you can search for some judo videos there.
I (188cm,at that time 80kg) in 2018 had the privilege of a training session in a Tokyo Dojo with that time Judo world champion Ami Kondo (150cm, 48kg).I took her at her Gi and shoulder and pushed her backwards for nearly two minutes hoping to bring her down and apply some kind of osaekomi.Then something occurred beneath me.I didn't regard her legs and was foot swept.I went down on my palms and Kondo all of a sudden stood with her arse precisely over my neck and grapped under my armpit.What followed was a sankaku jime in 100% perfection.I was half turned to the side,my right arm was armbared by Kondo's arms,my left arm was immobilized between Kondo's screwdriver like legs and my head so I even could not tap.The influx of blood and oxygen to my brain was extremely jammed.I fainted and was slapped back to consciousness by the ref and by Kondo who helped me up.
@@JudoHighlights2015 But concerning male,this very day in 2018 ,directly after me they chose a 195cm man out of our group. OK,it was a boy of perhaps 18 who was thin without any strong muscles. They simply took him in for a training session with Ms Kondo. Since he saw what happened to me some minutes ago his tactics were to remain absolutely passive. Since Kondo was to small to take his Judogi correctly she pressed his hips and applied a crushing O Soto Gari that brought him from 195cm to 30cm.For defending himself he offered both his arms for Ude Juji Gatame. Kondo took the right one and he tapped.He tapped much earlier than me.
Very nice, especially including all the multiple angles. I know very little about this, and this was very instructive. Your commentary was right on for a highlight video, providing insight into the moves while the picture did the explaining.
I really appreciate your commentary. Well done. I think I would really like videos of you doing in-depth fight commentary / analysis, where you explain set-up, directions, grips etc. There aren't a lot of channels doing this. Maybe think about that. :-)
I love ne waza and #9 was absolutely gorgeous, but my fave has to be #4. It was a counter, but it barely looked it. He seemed like he was almost baiting him. He just moved his foot out of the way and ran him over. So aggressive. So beautiful.
I have so much admiration and respect for Judo and want to learn it, but too anxious and awkward to train in front of people. Anyone else feel this way?
Did you start your training journey? I always feel anxious starting something new, but the reward i get from the training outweighs it All . Getting over the anxiety and conquering fear is so satisfying at the end but can Also be draining especially at first... I wish you Well!
I liked that they were all clear ippons, none were over-scored wazaris. No. 8 wasn't a tae otoshi, the arms were tucked under and although the leg was out, it was still a variant shoulder throw. Great video and makes me miss doing judo.
Nice video. But why aren’t 22, 10, and 2 hansoku make? They are throws onto uke’s head, and that shows lack of control and dangerous play. And you are correct on #8.
How come none of the Top 25 Ippons are from female fighters? I was going to share this on my club page but it sends out the message that only men do judo!
With #15 I believe the criticism isn't on the thrower for the uke's head leaving the armpit, I feel like in the current rules the uke would get a penalty for pulling the head like that under the armpit. At least in the recent finnish open weightclasses championship they got penalties when the shorter guy pulled his head out of the behind the neck hold, under the armpit. The throw itself by the belgian was quite nice if you removed that head pull under the armpit. What I didn't like in the #14 was how the uke's leg gets stuck in between the legs when falling and they're not in line. I believe situations like that were part of the reason why some of the leg throws were banned back in the day. Not that it was that bad, but the setup makes it a bit difficult to achieve any other kind. You're so right about the last one. The way he controlled the whole chain of events through every step. He didn't give the opponent a breather at any point, it was so methodical. How do you come back from that before he manages an ippon? You really don't. The actual throw wasn't that impressive like you said, but he was so decisive in getting there that it was just bound to happen.
great video. BUt I thought chopanov's ashi waza (maybe is was nidan kosoto gari), was by several degrees of magnitude the best throw. Hard to imagine that could be better.
Number 18 is tani-otoshi, at least for me it is. The guy counters o-goshi and put his left leg behind both legs of the attacker. If Shamilov could counter more face to face and hooked only 1 leg, then it would be more an o-soto-gake.
Hi! Great video! 1 thing: nr 8 is for sure a tai-o-toshi. There is no 'carrying' moment which is in a seoi nage. There is only arm action. Seoi means litterarely 'to carry' ... do you agree? Does everybody agrees? Great work thanks!🙏🏽

You too!
Great work! I think the forgotten one 13:28 is my favorite, but it's hard to choose.
The timing is so perfect its so nice
Great job compiling it. Judo requires so many techniques and skills and brain work. One of the best marshal arts!
100% agree correct (not controversial) re the seoi-otoshi call Hashimoto throw at 10 minutes, its certainly not taiotoshi.
Nice work man! I like Judo much better now. I am not a specialist but number 2 takes the cake, beautiful.
Great video! Do an olympic top moments highlight
