Thank you for the subtitles! Yuki Nakai is a legend, and while it's unfortunate that his own career got cut short due to an illegal eye gouge in the 1995 Vale Tudo Japan tournament, it's incredible to see him come full circle and to now be teaching jiu-jitsu to the National Team. People can waste their time arguing about judo vs BJJ, but it seems that the top competitors in each sport go out of their way to cross-train the other.
Yes indeed. I am a BJJ black belt and have the utmost respect for good judokas. A combination of judo and jiujitsu techniques = the most complete gi grappler.
Every country from East Europe cross train with their traditional grappling styles, weather is mongolian's wrestling, georgian's chidaoba, kazaquistani's kurash and many others. It's stupid not to do so. Judo they all know.
Honestly, the coolest thing was to see Yasuhiro Yamashita and Yuki Nakai greeting each other. I would have loved to see Yamashita (or Saito) in the first UFC.
@@m5a1stuart83 , and if you look on the marketing side, he is a pioneer of BJJ in Japan. He can get a lot of students, because he is not competing in the same market of thousands of Judo dojos.
It's sad to think that many of these young judoka's Olympic ambitions have been delayed by the global pandemic insanity, so let us hope that their dreams of competing on the world stage will eventually come to fruition. I wish them every success in doing so.
Human beings are not the most important part of Universal occurrences - they are actually the problem & deserve whatever the Universe puts out - wake up!
@@TAROTAI Wake up yourself, Mr! I grant you that those among the masses who are not awake, as such, will unfortunately have to take the consequences of what is being planned by those in power. If you are suggesting that human beings in general are dispensible and have no purpose on this planet, then you are clearly just as bad as the psychopaths who are currently pulling the strings.
@@greasebob BJJ is Judo Kosen who Jigoro Kano fortunately taught to Gracie's before he gets pissed off about Kosen Judo guys defeating normal Judo guys on ground and deleting everything on ground .
@@mism2897 here in Brazil is pretty common for judokas and BJJ practitioners to cross train. We do not hate each other like some people in the internet. Were I train we used to have judo and BJJ sessions at tbe same time on the same mats. We were even invited to do some no gi with the judokas.
