I am not a wrestler or Judo practitioner. To me both look preety effective at bringing down your opponent. To me this is what the BJJ guys are missing. I can´t stand when in a fight a guy jumps guard on a guy while standing, or sits there asking the guy to come into his guard. Nowadays almost everybody has a good sprawl, so more often then not you gotta figure another way to get your opponent down. The throws are really pretty when executed by a true pro, but what I seem to notice that wotks the best (Fedor, Yoshida) are the sweeps from in close. They are really hard to defend against guys with good balance. Where Judo is better than wrestling I think is in the subs. But to me wrestlers seem to have better ground control and work better on the ground. Like I said I am not a practitioner so I just might be full of shit. Thought I would save some of you the time by saying it myself
