100k! Time to spill the beans!

Aaron Wolf is my personal favourite and an inspiration. In fact, I started judo at the begining of this year thanks to him by watching his videos on YT. You know the ones with Donmai where he goes to highschool training and beat the crap at every student 😂. Even though its in japanese and I dont understand a word, it is still a great watch. Before discovering him I was a poor Bjj guy with Zero stand up game. And now, one year in the making, I'm shit standing but at least I have an orange belt! (Oh, and your highlights of his Uchimata and Ouchi are crazy good! Thx for those, watched them a ton) I really hope he's selected for the Olympics. He may not win it, or even medal, but at least we get to see him more. Hopefully we get more ippons to watch from. Then he'll retire and will get more sweet judo content on YT, and even maybe an instructional! I really liked his yoko otoshi/lat drop and his yoko guruma during this Tokyo GS. And thanks for your content!

Another great highlights video, thank you. Abe @ 10:41 Arai @ 1:10 Bashaev @2:40 O-soto @ 5:00

Correction: 3:30 - ko uchi gaeshi 3:41 & 4:23 - sumi otoshi (it doesn't need to look picture perfect) 4:07 - uki otoshi

Excellent footage and commentary as always. Yeah, I also hope that they'll park this "no name technique = no point" mantra. This might open a more creative judo down the road.

I think its all sumi otoshi them nameless. I loved every minute of that, was the whole fandango👍👍💪🥃

congrats on 100k, thank you

WOW! 2:39 That Bashaev technics! :)))

As there is a big break after this Saturday, do you plan on making some judoka ippon videos? I think you could make really entertaining video of Tushishvili's highlights, if you go through his contests since let's say 2017, you'd find some really incredible stuff.

For your Information: Trippel has had a lot of knee problems since the olympics and is basiclly struggeling to get back on full health. Nice video, keep the work up!

the technique at 3:33 is sumi-otoshi

❤❤❤❤❤❤

Dota Arai is absolute genius. I love this boy.

Abe Hifumi, what a badass

3:36 Sumi-otoshi

Not in this video but Uta Abe's koshi guruma from the world championship has to be in the top ippons of the year. Keep up the great work man I love your videos!

Congrats on the 100k subs, hopefully you will do a vid talking about yourself and what you are doing in japan

New olympic dilemma: Russia (or AIN I guess) -100kg.

In regards to nameless techniques...I think it's more purist when scoring was based on diminishing control, ippon for a square delivery to the back, wazari for side to back, Yuko for bum to side, Koka for bum to ground. Ippon of the year...the heavyweight who countered a counter with a kata garuma/seionage technique..it was flow state, found and at heavyweight with that strength...and I've never seen that before, all adds to perfect judo and at least a candidate spot. Loving your narration btw. Chr from Aotearoa

Awesome vid!!! Your third last ippon, Gantulga - Kim with the obi tori gaeshi score. What do you think happened to Gantulga!? I saw that one live (on JudoTV) and it shocked me.

ABE at 10:46 a huge O Soto Gari.

Thanks for the video. Do you have it with japanese commentary as well? They always go mental.

8:32 amazing ippon

Muy buenos hipones si señor así se hace Judo

Can you make a 'creating a JudoHighlights video'?

The throw at 17:30 ish with split hips. Im the UK we would call that uki-goshi. Similar to ogoshi with the undergrip but only on the nearside hip not both.

First one: Sumi-otoshi, second one: O-uchi-gaeshi.

Tasoev is such a good judoka, hope he's in the Olympics.

13:22 Yes, we should invent new techniques, but exaggerating, that would ruin the point of it. For example, "Hantaisoku" means 'other side' in English, so why not not having 'Hantaisoku-Kata-Guruma'?

Спасибо. Отличная работа. Как себя чувствует парень, которого француз вырубил подножкой? А ведь на заре создания дзю - до такие случаи были весьма частыми. Татами тогда были из рисовой соломы. Потому и борьбу в партере игнорировали. Всё решал бросок.

R.Nagayama Fainally....He got a Olympic ticket See you at Paris in 2024

Didn't think tasoev was an uchi mata guy

Not sure if it's a big ask but I'm new to watching Judo so may I ask you to include names of the competitors and maybe their country/category in your videos. Thanks a ton and keep it up!

Great video as usual! I have One question: what's the name of the technique at 8:31? Koshi guruma or Ashi guruma? I personally think Is ashi guruma because i don't see the hip lift

Good point about the Japanese, they are traditionalists to the core, but in this day and age with the ban on leg grabs, there needs to be adjustments and Japanese don't adjust too well. This "name the technique" issue is only used to fit narratives, not everyone can pull clean techniques like Abe.

I feel that if it’s not deemed a clean throw the match should continue on the mat, or fighting back to standing for a second throw attempt.

3:30 sumi otoshi or something 3:43 body fold

Interesting theory about the drop Seo especially if you factor in Nomura. I’m toying with the idea that maybe Nomura was more fundamentally sound than the next generations. Or. Perhaps we’re seeing a change in the work ethic and modern judokas are chasing easier techniques.

I think Trippel was Injured but im not 100% sure

That second ippon from Bashaev....

Judo doesn't continue in the ground?

i dont think Bashaevs one should be called uchi mata sukashi, its uki goshi, hand technique usually done by mongolians

Best throw: Bashaev @ 03:02. Making something out of nothing. 😮

all does technique with out a name is called bulldozer lol 🌽

uchi mata look difficult for taller fighters

17:01 shouldn't be banned? It appears quite dangerous for the opponent's head. At least, not banned, but sanctionned if badly executed. I don't understand we can discuss about head diving but authorize people to plant others people head into the mat...

I blame Travis Stevens for spreading this whole "split hip" bs.

Hahaha. Judo is wrestling(not Olympic wrestling) with rough pajamas! Wrestling is as ancient as human and animal existence on this planet. And you don't have to name anything to take someone down or throw them on their back!

Yondonperenlei could have found himself disqualified for that behaviour. There's no place for it.

Some guys are turning the judo into wresting.... really sad
