Thus 'Japanese Jiu Jitsu' is a meaningless term. Actual Japanese jiujitsu is today called 'judo' by people in Japan and elsewhere. It's widely practiced in Japan and has been since the 1800s. Other 'jiu jitsu' schools (i.e. not aikido) in Japan, are either younger (usually much) than the Kodokan or, if they genuinely have unbroken pre-Kodokan lineage, then their members are comparable to people in England who do longbow. Outside of Japan 'Japanese' or 'traditional' jiujitsu basically means Western and young.

Daito ryu, Katori shinto ryu, Hontai yoshin ryu, Kito ryu etc. all have western schools. But koryu styles are notoriously picky about practitioners and require dedication. They are not sport, so they will never be for the masses.

Judo is an educational tool for mankind, in Kano's vision.

Imo the biggest thing Kano “invented” was introducing play into the training - the idea that we can drill these movements in a setting geared towards personal development , sport, and weight loss. These were entirely new concepts. Up till then these arts like jujitsu had existed as killing techniques for combat but no one had made them into a system that could be practiced for personal health and exercise. This was Kano’s greatest contribution and it’s not honored enough. Without him we wouldn’t have gracie jiujitsu

Kano didn’t eliminate the deadly techniques from Judo. He eliminated the idea of practicing it on your sparring partners. Because Judo is still deadly and those dirty techniques are still there but they can only be practiced through kata only. But the throwing, joint locking, takedowns and etc are all practiced.

I train BJJ, and I trained Judo for a few years, and it is simply not true that they are the same martial art. There is a lot of overlap in terms of techniques, but BJJ is constantly creating new techniques, while also taking a lot of techniques and tricks from Catch Wrestling, Free-style Wrestling, Greco-Roman Wrestling, and self-defense experts. Judo never did have good wrestling techniques; at best it had primitive wrestling techniques. Many Catch Wrestling submissions and positions do not exist in Judo as well. Judo, if we're being honest, ceased to grow in terms of its techniques in the 1890s, and has only lost techniques and teachings since that time. Jigoro Kano's Judo trained with weapons and strikes, but almost no Judo clubs seriously train these techniques anymore.

I studied Judo in Japan back in the 80's. They didn't give you the higher ranks unless you were of good character and were contributing to Judo in things other than sport. Judo wasn't just a bunch of throws and ground techniques for submission. If your Sensei found out you were getting into trouble. He would make sure you paid for it. The Way of the Gentleman is what Judo really means. The translation of Do or Tao means your way of life in everything you do. Not just a way to apply a technique. The Japanese Police used Judo and Kendo as their primary self defense training. I worked Law Enforcement for the US Air Force, so I got to see them in action many times. I saw a 110 pound Japanese Policeman throw a 200 pound Marine across the hood of his car one night. Deep respect to you and Dr Fergeson for acknowledging those points.

It branched into two parts, one with atemi and one with out. Judo also has atemi but not in the sport you see in clubs.

As a sambo practitioner and judoka I can confirm that Sambo evolved from Judo. In my personal experience nobody I've met would state differently. There is a huge respect to Judo in the Sambo community. The fact it is based on Judo is documented in the history of Sambo. In the country where I'm from we practice Sambo and Judo combined. My great-grandfather practiced Practical Combat Sambo as he was an officer in a special national security force during early years of Soviet Union. What he practiced wasn't called Sambo at the time. Going forward what I practice today is called Sambo, more specifically I do Combat Sambo. In essence Sambo is self-defence without firearms hence the name Самозащита Без Оружия - САМБО. In the curriculum there are techniques that teach how to disarm an armed person either he has a baton, firearm or knife. Other things include headbutts from the standing or ground positions. In addition there are strikes into the groin. The uniform Куртка or Самбовка allows to grip shoulders for various throws, but the rest is the same as in Judo.

This man is a philosopher. I don't necessarily agree with everything Dr. Ferguson says, but I **absolutely** respect his line of reasoning and the unparalleled depth and breadth of sports experience that led him to his conclusions. Even for the parts I disagree with, his logic and explanation are an interesting, well-reasoned perspective and make me re-think my own stance.

Namely, my gross lack of stand up/take downs and over reliance on pulling guard, stalling on bottom, starting on the knees and complete lack of striking/defense/footwork. I started boxing five years before ever stepping on the mats, I stopped training in favor of more grappling. Now, I am starting to focus on Judo and Muay Thai and plan on developing both from here on out. I believe it's because sport Jiu Jitsu is so much fun and captivating that people forget that we're learning to defend ourselves, not just participate in a sport.

Who enters a Judo dojo or a Jiu Jitsu dojo knows exactly what expect, and it wouldn't be possible if those two martial arts weren't separeted.

The problem with this take is that judo as practiced most places is more focused on throws over grappling. The point system in the sport encourages this. BJJ came along and flipped the script and focuses on ground game, which it turns out is highly efficient. You have to separate combat (“martial arts”) from sport here. No one system is going to be able to capture both perfectly. Best ground is the high ground but the end state matters here, so let’s not pretend that’s a perfect parallel. We aren’t samurai finishing each other on the battlefield. We train (hopefully) to defend ourselves in a way that makes sense given most probable scenarios - getting to top and moving away is paramount, so yes I agree we could have a submission grappling system that encourages standup and top game as conditions for victory. Who does this, jacket and no jacket, in a way that is widely practiced as a codified system? It’s almost judo, but not quite.

In modern MMA, sport BJJ is far too slow. However, the reason why Judo players, Sambo and wrestlers have done so well in MMA is due to the speed, aggression and standing to ground transitions which is missing from BJJ as it's not really needed as much, and therefore not practiced a great deal if at all. BJJ is, however, essential for refining techniques for any grappler. I did 5 years of BJJ, and it improved my Judo ne waza immensely, so I would never knock it, and advise any Judo, Sambo or a wrestler who wants to start MMA to train BJJ. All great sports.

I think the best academies train both equally and are good everywhere

I've been advocating for a while, in sport BJJ (Grappling Industries/ NAGA ETC) make the takedown 5 points instead of 2 (mount is 4 and a sweep is 2) / the most points, so there will still be no "IPPON" but guys will now want to fight for the takedown , also a good rule would be a guy pulls guard but misses (2x minus -1 point, and minus one every time after) and the other guys backs up and says stand up to the ref (or escapes guard and stands up) the opponent would be forced to stand up and engage ... IMO this would make a better sport and more realistic to fighting .... on the other hand in MMA there are guys that are able to finish from the Bottom, maybe not as much now since they all now learn how to defend and escape but there still are submissions from the bottom

They'd never change the rules like that, they would lose competitors/revenue.Competition is about making money. Making takedowns more lucrative for competitors, adds more risk to injury an less people willing to take that risk aka compete. Hell I'm a judo/jitsu guy and you can barely get people to do takedowns in class, no one wants to do it.Only time they try is 2 weeks before a competition. It'll never change unless a judo/jiu jitsu guy or wrestler/jiu jitsu guy starts a federation. If it's a straight jiu jitsu guy, forget it takedowns are 2 points.

Royce only won UFC 1 because of the gi, which was a rule that the Gracies installed to give them a competitive advantage. When Royce fought Matt Hughes, it showed how many holes in his game he had. A lot of sports rely on rule changes to gear competitions towards certain styles they want to showcase. Ex: the best boxer isn't going to beat a mid/low tier kickboxer when the rules allow kicks, knees, and elbows. This is the main problem with BJJ today. It's modified the ruleset so much to encourage the guard, that it's completely left out the stand-up aspect of the sport which is really the most important. So many "newer" positions work great under BJJ rules like leglocks, spider guard, de le Riva, etc. but would never be used or easily countered in MMA, which really should be the end goal mindset. MMA is the closest we have to sanctioned real fighting, and the reason wrestlers have so much success in it is because of the mindset, conditioning, and emphasis on takedowns and top control or escapes from bottom. Judoka would probably have a lot of success in MMA as well, but they can't enter comps because of IJF rules, which is another story. "Pure" BJJ hasn't really been dominant since the first couple of UFCs because MMA is really its own thing, and sport BJJ is becoming so focused on so many unnecessary things that are only applicable to the BJJ ruleset, and not fighting overall.

And ippon is flawed too - the fight isn't over when you throw someone. If you actually watch some street fights, plenty of people get thrown really hard (yes, on concrete) and get back up right away. Even in Olympic Judo, many big ippons end with the top person getting rolled through. If it was a real fight they'd be on bottom. You can see this with koshi guruma, particularly in women's UFC divisions. (Also, plenty of MMA fighters have ended with triangles from bottom...)

Basically

He is right but he is ignoring that today’s judo is not what it used to be before becoming a sport. Because of sport judo the focus of most of the training center in judo evolved in focusing in throws, in the sport, and less in the self defense. The rule set end up defining the martial art or sport. The judo that landed in Brazil was before the sport judo becoming popular. So most of the elements where in place. Original BJJ did not have time limits and because of it did not relegate the newaza. Also they do not care how you landed as long as you will be able to continuing fighting. Moreover they tested their martial art against other arts to gain adepts and promotion. That was very important and unique and start of mma. They started valetudo (translated as everything goes) competition and most of those where done in wrestling venues with soft floors. Nevertheless some of those where very brutal. So throwing in sport BJJ evolved as less important due to the venue and as a consequence they are less technical in that aspect. And newaza evolved as more important since they could neutralize the advantages of the other sports since there was not limit in time. Fights could last hours non stop. They maintained some detailed technical elements that most practitioners of judo were not familiar in practice. By fighting in valetudo against other disciplines they kept important elements of original judo.

Professor is wrong about Jeet Kune Do- The term "Jeet Kune Do Concepts" was not coined until after Bruces death and comes from Dan Inosanto, post Mortem Bruce Lee. There is a practise called simply Jeet Kune Do, that is the way of the intercepting fist and its based on a range of true standalone combat principles based on the body biomechanics. Bruce studies different martial art styles but but he didn't make a Frankeinsteins monsters of a martial arts, he never blended, what you would call MMA, so this is wrong. He did it through studies of different styles, he understood the universal principles of unarmed combat with the headline that there are no limits and no rules, but simple to-the-death-unarmed-combat. He called it Jeet Kune Do (The way of the INTERCEPTING fist) due to the nature of the heavy emphasis on non-telegraphic deliveries, hits or kicks. Within the realm of "no-limits" and "no-way" unarmed combat takes different forms, kicking, punching, grappling etc. Ted Wong was his true last pupil and close friend and Ted was a "blank card" meaning he didn't have previous martial arts background when he learned JKD, opposed to Dan Inosanto, who, at that time, had different martial arts styles when learning JKD. I come from Ted Wong lineage where the latter stage JKD was taught, that is the latest updated JKD until Bruce Lees death.

Jujutsu too focused on the ground? Can I get more information or a source on that because that doesn’t seem to fit with any research of mine. We know that Tenjin Shinyo-ryu had a good amount of torae waza (immobilization techniques) and both that and Kito ryu had shime waza (choking techniques), but neither of them emphasized them. Relying more on strikes and throws along with joint locks (usually while standing). Even if we go back. Historically, sumo is the ancestor art of jujutsu (and what most samurai practiced before 1532 when the takenouchi school of jujutsu was founded) and there’s no ground game there since if you exit the ring or touch the floor with anything aside from the soles of the fight you lose. Even in a battlefield context going to the ground wouldn’t be ideal. Even during the edo when no wars were fought, they tried to keep tradition and didn’t specialize much into things such as ground work often, some schools were the exception but not the rules (though certainly the ground game did develop more during that time). The only thing I would say is similar to what you said is when Kano criticized the Kosen branch of judo for emphasizing ground work. But to say that traditional Japanese jujutsu was very ground focused I think is a misunderstanding unless you can educate me otherwise.
