Judo effectiveness outside Dojo?

I%26#039;d like to know the effectiveness of Judo in a fight outside the Dojo. Against a resistant opponent but who doesn%26#039;t do judo.|||Judo is one of the most street-efficient arts out there. Forget what you hear or read about on TV and the internet, the truth of the matter is KOSEN JUDO, the original pre-olympic Judo, is one of the most well-rounded dangerous arts out there.





TO THOSE WHO DONT KNOW: Pre-olympic Kosen Judo contained strikes, standup grappling, weapons work (including katanas and knife defense), groundwork, and of course the ever infamous takedowns.





Try aggressively grabbing a Judo student and see how fast you land on the top of your head. Judo people are overall VERY tough, strong opponents.|||Of course we have the one MMA nutrider that thinks anything that %26quot;he%26quot; doesn%26#039;t train is useless. Hint: Get a life please.





As for your question Judo can be extremly effective on the street for self defense. Unlike what another person answered, many Judo throws leave you upright, and I can garuntee getting dumped on your head on pavement, will pretty much ruin your day.





When are people going to get it through their head it is not the style, it is the way you are taught and how you train. A lousy BJJ person is going to get hurt by a Karate Ka and vise versa.|||A well executed judo throw onto pavement could seriously mess someone up. Broken arms/wrists, skull fracture.





The only problem is 9 times out of 10 you also end up on the ground. Most street fights are never one on one, and you really don%26#039;t want to be on the ground when the guy you just slammed buddy comes kicking at your head.





People on here who %26quot;Do MMA%26quot; clearly don%26#039;t know jack sh*t about Judo.





I also train in MMA, but did Judo extensively before, and it has helped my ground and pound IMMENSELY!





And just look at Shinya Aoki, he has a Judo background and he is a submission wizard.|||I don%26#039;t know why MMA fighters feel the need to bad mouth other arts. JUDO is very practical and very good for self defense. I have used Judo throws several times in certain situations and they have never failed me. I also have studied and practiced BJJ--it to came in handy. A high level Judo player is a dangerous person and a force to be reckoned with. Many MMA fighters understand and respect true Judo.|||Judo will get your opponent onto the ground. Often you will end up on the ground too.





In a fight you need to incapacitate your opponent, get him to submit or (preferably) get him to run away.





Judo is very effective at getting people to run away.|||i do hapkido and it has a lot of similar throws and ive used some of them in fights outside competition and sparing. One time i told a dude punch me so i blocked and did a hapkido throw which i think is called a uchimata in judo|||For example, Uchi Mata Will be more than enough to finish a fight in the street.

Juji Gatame Is dangerous too! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oRWaVjrAj...


Sacrifice throws are no joke either!

They teach you things that are used for situations on the outside of the sport. Along with alot of different martial arts and judo being one of them.
