Maybe it's just me, but where did all the Judo go in mma??
Maybe it's the lack of jackets?
Judo has a different game plan than most MAs. although it takes no longer to dump someone on their head and bounce back up again, people consider a fifty strike combination safer. It's just ignorance as far as I'm concerned but, it seems to be the general concensus.
Judo is definitely under-rated for self-defense.
is the offspring of Ju jutsu.
While ther may not be a lot of spectacular throws(for MMA)
There are ton's Of Armlocks that are verry popular to in Judo.
That are often Used in MMA
Juji gatame (the cross armlock) has been used by
many fighters & the Keylock(Ude garami) is another.
My thouhts are this Judo Has it's Place.
The fact that in MMA U don't have to wear a Gi
Takes the element of Judo out beause To perform Judo
U need ad least a Jacket.

I don't know that it ever went anywhere. The only think about Judo is it has to be "tweaked" for MMA. Just like you'd have to tweak boxing, kickboxing, Western wrestling, etc. I think Yoshida has done just fine in MMA so far, that may bring back a few more Judo guys.

Well IMO if one thinks you need "Ad least a Jacket" to perform judo, you (Not YOU) have been given a limited education. Judo is much bigger then many people make it. As you eluded to Ace, Juji Gatame and Ude Garami are but two of the many "Judo" hold you'll see in MMA competition. Good points!
The judogi is an integral part of judo. Yes, there are techniques that don't require it or can be modified if it's not available, but judo is a form of jacket-wrestling, in my opinion.

In it's sport form, yes, I would agree with you.

Did anyone here see Karo Parysyan (SP?) destroy his opponent with textbook judo in UFC about 2 months ago? It was great.
