Saulo has done an awesome job in giving his students this experience. If you’ve never trained with a high level judoka before, you have no idea what it feels like. And Travis is getting some work in but he’s not going super hard.
Watch at the 3:00 minute mark. Guy goes for lapel grip, Travis brushes it off and anticipates the guy going for it again and times the throw off of it. Beautiful judo.
Eric Lee it's to be nice to his opponents, that's also why he rolls through on the uchimata, it's a nicer fall to take than launching them in the air and letting them sort it out
Every bjj player should practice some judo, and every judoka should practice some bjj, throws in bjj are little to nothing and newaza in judo has not enough training time nowadays
I Love bjj, but Theo pace is a fundamental other as in Judo. An Travis is slow, in His History... He was so fast... Travis is one of my Favorits in Judo
Brandon Buenconsejo tbf to tracis, who is an accomplished judoka, he is clearly tried and has fought quite a few guys. This may even be at the end of a session where he's already done lots of sparring anyway
I think that the roll through on the throw should be counted as a reversal and thus a loss. So Travis 3 Ribeiro students 10. Judo throws / takedowns were #1 to stay standing in the fight. #2If they hit the ground to be in a dominate position. I do not see this much in sport judo anymore. I am from an old school judo club throw and stay standing if not takedown and get dominate position.
He’s rolling thru primarily not to land on them which is being polite in judo particularly to people not as skilled as you. If he wanted he could have probably cracked ribs on every throw by landing on them.
You can see the advantages the Judo player has. The BJJ black belts look like white belts. No fn idea. Mind you the judo guy is nothing special. Still wipes the floor.
