Ayuso Grapples

Bank error in your favor, collect that yuko 🤣

We were both confused with this call but we rolled with it.

*Just a funny moment, respect to refs, these calls are often too fast to catch everything.

Theres only two throws in BJJ and they are Uchi Mata and Harai Goshi 🤣

Judo: 10/10 ex*****on
Transition: 3/10 ex*****on
Submission is a submission 😂

Judoka You Should Know 🥋 — Fabio Basile 🇮🇹

Olympic Champion at 21. Then came the injuries, neck surgery, and years of trying to get back to the top.
Sometimes the comeback is more impressive than the original win.

This is why I love learning the stories behind the athletes we watch.

Who should I cover next? 👀

I changed my mind about the Judo leg grab ban… kinda. 😂

Maybe the answer isn’t bringing back full freestyle-style leg grabs, but finding a middle ground that adds more options without turning every exchange into a sloppy shot. Someone also suggested to full on bring them back but to not score from them.

Judo has evolved a million times before. Maybe it can evolve again. 👀🥋

Would you bring leg grabs back? And if so, under what rules?

Had to upload this one because I got enough frequent flyer miles to book a flight to Cancun 🤣

Technique was questionable. Gravity did its job. 😂🥋

5 takedowns and not a single one is making the instructional DVD.

2 Points is 2 Points.

🥋 JUDOKA YOU SHOULD KNOW:

Amandine Buchard 🇫🇷

Olympic medalist. World-class judoka. Kata Guruma queen. 👑

And apparently being one of the best judokas on the planet wasn't enough… so she decided to play rugby too. 😂🏉

One of the most exciting athletes to watch, and her Kata Guruma is an absolute cheat code.

Who should I cover next? 👀
