Hey guys, just put out a podcast episode that talks about competition judo circuit and the crossover between judo and bjj:
http://takeituneasy.com/episode-6-niko-dax-on-elite-level-judo-and-bjj/
The IJF (judo organization) banned leg grabs a few years back, and the IBJJF (bjj organization) has added a bunch of restrictive rules in the past as well. Niko argues a point (that I found surprisingly convincing) that a more restrictive rule-set may have a positive effect on the evolution of the techniques in the art.
Anyway, hope you find it interesting.
