I think throws and chokes are useful to know and I practice them but I have to say I think a good punch is easier and more reliable if I had to choose. I guess we should all be good at both but i could not see myself relying on judo techniques alone. B.

I agree with that Judo Throws and Chokes and stuff are much better when combined with strikes and kicks,that way you get your opp. stunned,and can perform a Throw much easyer.

A judoka usually depends on getting a good grip on the opponents shirt or jacket in order to have control. In my one experience in a confrontation, I instinctively grabbed the guy's T shirt and it just ripped off as he backed up. If I have to get in a fight again, I hope it's not in the summer. If a person was to look at the early ways of training something like osoto gari(its on you tube/ google video) then gripping perhaps wouldnt be to much of a problem in such a scenario. Judo seemed much more brutal way back then. Jude

But, it is the sport mindset that will get the judoka killed. If you practice a sport long enough you get the rules as an instinct. and sporting rules on the street, with no mat, refs or otherwise is a lethal habit
