 |
|
| I am considering in taking up a grappling martial art. I've done research on both Judo and Aikido, but can't find a "distinct" difference. So, I'm asking your opinions. My main question is for me, which of the two arts would be best to blend in with a striking art? |

well some arts dont do well in competitions because they arent allowed to do because of rules. u couldnt break someones joints without breaking the rules that are used in such competitions. so entering such wouldnt make any sense would it?

| Well what I've heard from Judo is that they depend on the opponents clothing as support for their throw, is this true? And in UFC or Pride the competitors tend to NOT wear clothing... |

| Some of them. But many of the moves and me easily adapted to work on a foe with a weak tee or no shirt at all. |

| I've seen demonstrations of Aikido and they're pretty astonishing. But by the looks of them, they seem almost impossible to pull of in a UFC/Pride match...what do you guys think? Would it be valuable to know Aikido in that sort of situation? Why or why not? |

the way i always saw it, Aikido relies on a strike 1st from the attacker so the deffender can counter with a grabbling move by using there own force against them, it never struck me as an art when you can just jump in and throw ur opponent down as in judo and put them in a lock, and therefore in my opinion its not as useful in MMA competiton,
only my opinion, not sayin its the truth. |

When I used to attend a Judo club, there'd often be a part of the training session where we had to do randori (practice-sparring) without our jackets on...
