I'm really torn between judo and BJJ and would like to hear views from the judo/BJJ practitioners out there.

I started judo a few months ago, but for a while now I've been thinking if I should switch to BJJ. I like grappling on the ground (maybe more than standing up), and many judokas seem to get their bodies more or less rekt eventually. BJJ seems much easier on the body. I like the cultural stuff and philosophy surrounding judo better though (bowing etc.).

I guess I could also do both, but would I make much progress in either that way? I train four times a week currently, but it's possible that that may have to be lowered to three at some point in the future. Practicing both would also include the downside of the injuries of judo.

I don't intend to get into a lot of fights or become a MMA fighter, and I'm not very interested in competing. I just like grappling as a hobby.

Any thoughts or advice?

I do both and I think bjj is more practical/useful from the start, judo takes a longer time to get somewhat good at but is super fun to practice.

generally a bjj blackbelt will submit a judo blackbelt more often than not, but both will work in beating anyone untrained.

do both if you can, or research how good the judo schools are in your area and how good the bjj schools are

if you live near an amazing judo school do that - if you live near an amazing bjj school do that..

as a sidenote thank you for making this thread, and not "SHULD I DO KRAV MAGA KANG FU OR MUAY THAI I HEAR KRAB MAGU IS ISRAEL"
>>
Been doing both for several years. All other things being equal I'd recommend crosstraining to develop a more complete grappling game - preferably starting out with Judo as developing a decent standing game is harder than developing ground game. Make sure to invest enough time in that, even if you become discouraged by how hard it can at times be.

Go with GJJ.
"BJJ" is a scam and it doesn't work.

Serves you pretentious pseudo-intellectual shitters right.

As for your question..

There's a fuckload of Parkour tutorials on Youtube, some good, some crap with background dubstep. Look around for footwear tips. 4chan is for crapping on your own hobbies and getting mad at unknowns on the Internet, not for productive endeavors.

You can use any shoes.
You can use sneakers if you like, maybe minimalist sneakers, you could wear work boots, combat boots, high heels (not recommended).

You might want to refrain from wearing boots until you've got good technique, so you don't rely on the boots and compromise good technique.

You could even go bare foot, but be aware of the dangers, especially with unconditioned feet.

Try to find Master Toddy's gym. Really just stay in Bangkok for any gyms.
Do your research beforehand on places to stay, costs, etc.
Most of all stay hydrated during training, you're probably not used to tropical heat, let alone the heat + exertion of training
>>
>>875200
Oh also, they push westerners extremely hard into pro fights. Knowing they aren't ready, so they can get money. Don't fight until you're ready.

Orndorff probably holds the archetype more than Hunter (who, while never a great draw by himself, could actually do decent numbers in the main event).

Like trips, it was kind of the old saying about workhorse wrestlers - if they're your number two, you're golden. If they're your top guy, you're fucked.

HHH vs Cactus Jack at Royal Rumble 2000 is a great match but other than that, don't have a lot of time for HHH matches. He had a pretty awesome look during that era, though.

Austin v Haitch 3 Stages of Hell at No Way Out 2001 was a great match.

How do you guys think the Undertaker should go out? Ideally, it would've been against whoever broke the streak, but they already fucked that up. So how about this:
>Undertaker loses his last match at Wrestlelmania against whoever.
>After the pin, which is done in the traditional Undertaker hands over the chest way, he lies motionless in the ring, never opening his eyes.
>Opponent's music plays and he celebrates and leaves the ring.
>Silence for a few seconds. Suddenly, all the lights go out.
>Kane walks out with a single lit torch.
>Makes his way down to the ring, gets inside and stands above his "deceased" brother.
>A bright white light shines down from the top of the ramp and the druids start filing down to the ring, accompanied either by just the bell tolling.
>They carry the Undertaker's body out of the ring on their shoulders and back up the ramp into the light, Kane following behind the procession.
>As they pass through the light, Kane stands alone on the ramp, his back to the crowd.
>The bell tolls again and the white light disappears, leaving Kane with the just the torch for light.
>The bell tolls a final time and Kane's torch is extinguished.
>Darkness follows for a few more seconds. The lights come back up and Kane is gone.

I'd mark for that.

Sounds fine. Who should retire him? I think he should go at this Mania because he can barely work any more.

I like the idea of continuing the retirement series of Flair -> HBK -> Taker of legends retiring each other. The Rock as a heel would be the best option if they can get him to wrestle, I don't see any other options desu. HHH has wrestled Taker enough times at Mania already and Jericho is too much of a jobber to believably beat him. Kane is too slow and crap in the ring now, a match between them would be awful, and Sting is dead. Any other active "legends"?

Anyone here into high stakes poker?

I love the old episodes of poker after dark and high stakes poker on YouTube.

The battles and mind games between Helmuth, Ivey, Negreanu, Viffer, Elezra, Dwan, Brunson, Antonius, Hansen and a bunch of rich fish were great.

I guess the poker sites getting shutdown hurt their tournament action and a lot of them went bust since??

This dude was the GOAT

Everyone was terrified of him, he redefined the LAG style of play and was also an unbelievable reader and the most prolific bluffer of his time.

https://youtu.be/kUeAgB3R7mA

I hear he moved to Macau/Philippines for the massive million dollar cash games, went bust, got massively in debt to the triads and now gets shuttled around to promote crooked tournaments and high end games run by gangsters to work his 8 figure debt off.
