Judo Worlds 2023 FINAL JAPAN vs FRANCE Teams Event

I think I need to address some things said in this video. I don't have some hidden agenda. I don't have a bias against the French team, and I'm not trying to stir up trouble, so let's just get that out of the way first.

1. The MEN'S French team is not as good as they should be. Here are some statistics: France hasn't had a male world champion at -60, -66, -73 in over 20 years. 10 years ago at -81, Loic Pietri was WC. At -90 and -100 it's the same story as -60, -66, and -73. The one outlier is Teddy. So in 20 years, France has had 2 world champions. For a bit of perspective, these countries have had more that two champions in the same period: KOR, NED, UZB, JPN, MGL, RUS, BRA, GEO. Tied for 2 champions with France are ESP, GER, KAZ.

2. the +78 French women aren't that good. Yeah this was probably a bad comment by me and shows how little I pay attention to this category. I went through and had a look at DICKO and TOLOFUA's last 10 or so contests and they're definitely throwing people. Sorry about that.

One last thing. Just because France does well in the teams doesn't mean that my points in 1 are wrong. For example, Gaba threw Hashimoto. Great throw. But Gaba has never medalled at a Grand Slam. The team event is PERFECT for the French team because 3/6 members have to be female and France has the strongest female team in the world. This is why GEO is trying to hard to build some strong females to help them through it. Also, -60, -66, -48 and -52 competitors basically cannot compete in the teams event. Food for thought.

Also, keep it peaceful here. I did this exact same video last year. Too much racism and hate in the comments. Just keep it to yourself and keep things positive please.

kiwi commentary is great 👍🇳🇿

Judo now is a diagrace. I learned almost 20 years ago and was already Going down hill from the beautiful and effective martial art that it was. Now is just bullshit

❤

When judo has yuko, koka grade it was best time. Now we see shido-shido judo.

There should be a rule on fighting for the grip it takes up too much time, we did not do that in the '60s I prefer the 2-point system Ippon & waszari. Judo is or should be about throwing it's more exciting than what was demonstrated here.

It seems it was easymode without Russia)

Japan vs ... Africa?

You should study up before trying to commentate again.

It's not allowed to do joint locks if the opponent grabs the shirt?

Congratulations África.

Dont cut it up please

ニイゾエはワンパターンでのろいな。躰も硬い。積極的でもない。心が弱そうだ。日本のトップレベルには達していない。概してだが・・日本選手は相変わらず奥襟対策ができていない。技や体さばきが単純。相手に手数を読まれやすい。工夫が足りない。頭が悪そうな印象を受ける。今回の代表は二線級にみえたのは俺だけか?　悪口ばかりになって申し訳ないが、これが偽りのない心底である。

Это пздц, одни негры

Great video but I completely agree with the conclusion. I feel everything is forbiden in Judo now, half of the techniques I learned when I was a teenager are now banned, we should not call this sport Judo anymore... (One of my favorite, Teguruma is banned :( ) .Some of these ban was supposed to make judo less relying on strengh (like Georgian wrestling type of throws ) but I feel it did not really achieve anything, strengh is still very important in Judo. Now the rules are more complicated and ppl not familar with the Sport don't understand what's happening, like what happened in the last game is just ridiculous (way too much room for interpretation and obviously bring a lot of controversy with it).

A japánok sajnos nagyon sok esetben,még a csalást is bevetik csak hogy őket hírdessék ki győztesnek.

For France to hate Black people, they sure are a big part of their sporting events.

I’m a Jiu Jitsu player. I randomly ran into your video and got stuck watching until the end… France got robbed. Thanks for the content.

TODAY'S RULES: Can't grab the leg. Can't grab the belt. Can't grab the pants. Can't grab the arms. Soon - Can't grab the gi. Can't grab the hand. Can't grab yourself. They sure have pussified Judo. I'm glad I did my fighting in the 1950s and 60s. Waza Ari meant ALMOST IPPON. What qualified as Ippon was slamming your opponent into the mat HARD. The great majority of today's ippons would have been called waza ari in my day because the opponent did not hit the mat hard enough. We didn't have shidos and yukos. Soon I expect you to earn points if you make your opponent blink. Ya hear that whirring sound? That's Kano Shihan spinning in his grave.

Good 👍 Japan vs Africa…

No Tomoe-nage into Juji-gatame? How more ridiculous are the rules going to become?

era para Francia.

Женская борьба - это некрасиво, как женский бокс или женская тяжёлая атлетика, как мужская художественная гимнастика. Это сугубо моё мнение.

схватка обезьян. только медленнее и проще.

я смотрю у французов та же проблема со сборной что и в РФ

Creo que hay un error en el anuncio de Japón vs Francia , debe decir Japón vs Nigeria.

Very biased referee.

This was like watching paint dry!

Бургундия, Нормандия,Гасконь или Прованс?И в ваших жилах тоже есть огонь,но умнице Фортуне не до Вас,пока в дзюдо Африка рулит

africo-frensh team's

does this commentator have a crush on the men why does he only talk about boys during hame vs saito

No le importa si le rompio el cuello , lo importante es ganar, ganó no se que, pero ganó, pregunto: ¿es este el espíritu de las artes marciales?

Bonjour n'oubliez jamais les africains sont plus supérieur que les européens 😂

Bonjour heureusement judokas française beaucoup originaires africains 😂❤

Vielen Dank 👍🏻👍🏻😎

I just like to see France losing in everything

I was fortunate to train at the Kodokan/Japan in 1961 - have followed Judo ever since.

It's so sad to see Judo now days. IMO they have destroyed to art and intention of Judo with all of the "No touchie rules." Boring.
