In this episode I talk about the differences between Judo and MMA when it comes to self defense. Judo is a martial art that can be used on the street and in an altercation, but it is much more difficult to defend yourself in a situation where you are a few metres away from your opponent. In my humble opinion, Judo can be much more effective in self defense situations than MMA. And it doesn't get any easier than that!

00:00:00.000 Hello lads, today I want to talk about a few things. First and foremost I would like to give you an update on my book.
00:00:08.580 So the release date will be somewhere in the first quarter of 2019.
00:00:14.560 What I'm doing right now is that I'm basically reading through all the chapters, adding some information, adding some footnotes, etc.
00:00:21.680 Then I'm going to add some last thoughts and then the introduction chapter.
00:00:27.280 So the book is soon complete and I thought to make this video because the last chapter I proofread and edited was the one on martial arts.
00:00:40.520 And then I thought I don't know if I have actually elaborated upon this in a video.
00:00:46.340 So then I thought today's video might be that along with said update that yes the book is coming along.
00:00:52.340 I think it will be really good. I think it will be very well received.
00:00:56.480 Then obviously we have worked quite a bit with Jotunheim Nutrition and Legio Gloria.
00:01:01.900 So follow the Instagram for respective brand below so that you can stay tuned on the updates.
00:01:07.660 So yeah some good stuff are coming in the next few days.
00:01:12.020 The next week for Jotunheim Nutrition and I am looking at an option to ship for all of Europe.
00:01:19.600 So we have some whey banana with stevia because I know some people don't like aspartum and also some new clothes from Legio Gloria.
00:01:29.720 But enough about that. Check out the links in the description.
00:01:33.160 So the topic at hand. Judo for street fighting and self-defense.
00:01:38.720 Now the point here I want to make is that you don't really see all too much Judo in MMA.
00:01:46.100 And that is because it's not particularly effective if you compare it to how effective it is in an altercation that might arise in the mean streets of the chaotic cities of Western Europe or Americas.
00:02:01.080 So the point here is that first and foremost if you look at an MMA match they are beginning a few meters separated.
00:02:09.060 An altercation on the street can start you being just a few decimeters from your opponent.
00:02:14.940 Now in Judo obviously you want to be able to grab your opponent as soon as possible.
00:02:19.420 And especially if the opponent is not well versed in any martial arts at all.
00:02:24.420 So that's the first step that it's much easier to initiate in a predicament that can arise in the street than it is in an MMA fight.
00:02:33.280 The second part is that Judo you obviously train with a gi and that translates much better into clothing such as jackets etc. 0.83
00:02:42.040 Whereas it does not translate equally well to an MMA fight where you can't grab the clothes.
00:02:47.560 Same thing goes with Brazilian Jiu Jitsu for that matter.
00:02:50.320 So that's also something to keep in mind.
00:02:52.380 And then lastly and perhaps most importantly if you compare the getting thrown on a soft training mat versus getting thrown on a pavement.
00:03:03.960 And I can I will admit that before I trained some Judo myself we had it as a compliment to a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
00:03:11.280 Shout out to Warchief Shani in Ireland.
00:03:15.120 Great guy.
00:03:16.820 I hope you are well.
00:03:17.780 So anyway I didn't really think much of it before I trained but then getting thrown a few times on said soft training mat.
00:03:26.640 Yeah it's not particularly pleasant and imagine then that you're throwing someone with the same force upon a pavement.
00:03:33.140 Yeah you can definitely break someone's rib.
00:03:35.280 You can definitely cause severe damage to an opponent.
00:03:38.700 So those aspects in my humble view makes Judo much better in an altercation on the street than it does in MMA.
00:03:47.900 And then obviously this is true for wrestling as well.
00:03:50.840 If you want to pick someone up and slam them to the ground it will be more effective on the street.
00:03:56.160 And then also you will have clothes etc.
00:03:57.860 So it will be easier to throw people.
00:03:59.700 So that was just my video for today.
00:04:03.160 So if you're thinking about starting some sort of martial art but the only thing you have at hand is Judo.
00:04:08.240 It's an absolutely legitimate martial art to start.
00:04:11.640 Because as I said it can be very effective in self-defense.
00:04:15.520 And then also lastly a thing that you might want to keep in mind when it comes to the legal side of things.
00:04:22.400 It doesn't look as bad throwing someone as it does punching someone if there is a surveillance camera etc.
00:04:29.760 So thank you for watching.
00:04:32.360 And who am I?
00:04:33.280 I'm the great angel.
00:04:34.480 XXO.
00:04:35.340 Boom.
