Thanks for this badass highlight. Jimmy Pedro was a phenomenal champion and is now a phenomenal coach. His newaza was/is just as devastating as his tachiwaza. A very well-rounded and complete judo fighter.

Thanks for watching!

The good ole great days of Judo when they let the Judokha's actually use their NeWaza and Grapple. The world needs to see where this Grappling came from so please go back to those great days and let us Grapple.

That first Tai Otoshi is perfection.

This dude was my hero!!!

I think he was one of the best newaza guys in the 90s He couldn't beat world champion Yukimasa Nakamura When he was in the 65kg division But after moving up to the 73kg, he beat Yukimasa's brother,Olympic champion Kenzo,several times

Oh snap Bret Hearts wrestling theme!!!!

0:32 That transition to the choke seemed so smooth!

@LRK20 I think it's called the bow and arrow choke in BJJ and okuri eri jime in judo.

Thanks Jimmy

Jimmy is the man. Recently met him and he still has a lot of determination.

Met Jimmy today.. very nice guy

Jimmy Pedro, thanks for your American Judo for hero!

This video deserves more attention👍🏻🤘🏻

Thanks buddy!

Had to rewatch the whole video at 25% speed because Jimmy was so fast I could barely see what he was doing!

Jimmy Pedro and Travis Stevens are both very accomplished American judoka. But one name that not too many mention is Kevin Asano 1988 Olympic Judo Silver Medalist. He actually should have probably won the gold medal except for a controversial decision.

Best tai otoshi ever

✝️ great footage how do you find this stuff

🤯🤯🤯 Brillante

Good idea going for the old footage!

Thanks, you can watch more old school Judo here: kzread.info/head/PLXQO-q5ZCL0DvmwHdZkvEOXXKLyX8DmyN

Is that bret the hitman Hart music ?

With his retirement from the sport you should do a video on Khabib Nurmagomedov. Maybe a highlight video, or showing moves commonly used in Judo and Wrestling. He's probably one of the biggest icons of grappling style fighting ever

Wanted to do it for a long time, but UFC is pretty strict with it's copyrights. I'll see what I can do about it.
