Same here! Inoue is so freaking talented, incredible!

It's interesting to see how he never even attempts a throw until he's totally in control of his opponent.

When Kosei gets that grip high on the lapel it's unstoppable. Truly one of the greatest of all time and easily my favorite judoka

Inoue's Uchimata is insane.

It's amazing how at 0:17 Inoue used a Jedi mind trick (or super-speed) to throw the guy beside him.

Great example of how previous attacks are used as setups. Onos ability to adapt to your reactions was amazing

That's Kosei Inoue, not Shohei Ono. But both of them are legendary for their deadly uchimata's.

@valeyard00 ahh thanks I watched it a while ago and went on memory

Wow awesome! Would love a narrated version!

This is incredible footage, thank you for sharing!!!

Thank you for sharing, I’m sure that was a great learning day

Thank you for sharing!

No way I get to see these 2 legends sparring

amazing, thanks for sharing!

A wonderful video showing a blend of fighting spirt and fighting for your life. Bravo!

Thank you for sharing.

one of the best things I ever saw tbh. More randori videos please senpai!

Guy is another level! Love it

Great Randori Session.

Brutal! Gold never disappoints.

Kosei Inoue has godlike technique. Once he locks on a grip, his opponent is in trouble. His uchimata comes out of nowhere and with precise form. To outclass Shintaro is really saying something because we all know Shintaro would rag doll most of the black belts in the world. For Inoue to be on another level beyond Shin's is just breathtaking.

Tokyo Police Judo team are all on that level. All Japan champions they don't care about Olympic Medals.

This is awesome 😮

Amazing!

Amazing

I was there for this Randori session.

Kosei is taller and really goes for the high grip, which is very dominating once you have it. Shintaro was putting a lot of resistance, but after the uchi mata, it went downhill fast, like when you start loosing in chess - you keep making the mistakes. That uchi mata try by Shintaro was good, but it is crazy how fast Kosei avoided it. Maybe Shintaro could have gone to drop seo nage, but it is rarely done at this category.

Inoue can be both gentle and savage at once. Judo is crazy.

Hay diferencia en pesos .... gracias por compartir maestro Shintaro 🎉🎉🎉🎉

I remember stumbling on this video ages ago and going 'man is that shintaro higashi?'. Inoue is so good.

Kosei Inoue is in another level!

Looks surreal to see Shintaro getting outclassed

I once went to my instructor's home while in college. We saw his trophies displayed in one room. They were all first place. I asked him where the 2nd and 3rd place trophies were and he said that he threw them out. He was amazing to me, but everyone gets beat at some point. It wouldn't be any fun if they didn't.

That’s intense randori

Inoue’s a beast!

His Oguruma at the end was intense.

Wow😮😯😲

The Japanese Judokha's are on another level

Wow....

I remember that day.

Kosei is a freakin rock, insane technique

only 3 ippons in 4 minutes, not so bad, he is Inoue!! 👍

Shintaro looks so young !!

Nice ending 😂

what is the sweep at around 1:45 called? is the placement of toris foot such that it pulls ukes knee forward?

Tech judo 2007?

How can you throw him if he has the dominant grip all game.

Oh my god little Shintaro was such a cutie!

Shintaro, would a professional Sumo wrestler (let's say he's 380 lbs) have an advantage as a Judoka in competitions if he were to start training in Judo?

Yes

After the first collar choke and tap it went down hill fast

What year? Based on a leg grab follow up, I'm guessing around 2005?

Not me, no 😁 You must be glad there is even room for people to stand on the side. In my dojo, people hit the concrete walls so often, we offer ourselves us as human shields...

I didn't realize Inoue was that strong.

that guy is stable like a wall

literally like 2 bulls going at it

Shintaro is built like a tank

Shintaro is still relatively young

1 segundo inoue leva para executar o golpe e derrubar depois que faz a pegada....muito rápido!!!

2:27 was filthy 😂 I’m a judo enjoyer, not a judoka. What was that combo?

@@user-vc5ks8tv5t harai. he blocks with the hip and applies a leg reap to counter the hip slide (accidental or not. and lets remember harai goshi is an "enhanced" uki goshi). tai otoshi doesnt require hip nor leg contact, but it would have required a violent change in direction, as tai otoshi is a very forward throw, but this one was side-ish.

You move like a sports car and his still on idle enough said

Impossible to establish even a decent grip against Inoue. Longer reach, taller, heavier, stronger and way more skilled

Does anyone still call you shin?

LET'S all take a moment to appreciate how well Sensei Higashi aged 💪💪💪

Pure strength game

Not sure who’s who

shido desune

Is that really Inoue? he looks very different. In any case he should have allowed Higashi to throw him a few times because he had a natural advantage of greater height and weight.

2nd Comment

sleeves of Kosei's gi shorter than shintaro's so it makes more advantage for him in this randori.
