So I pick them up and kata-guruma them into the concrete, killing them instantly.

I wanna learn judo only for this move. Is it the one when you pick someone over your head and throw him away? I never saw someone do it, it’s like the coolest thing ever
You pick them up over your shoulders and drop them over the opposite side. Usually you don’t see it done standing anymore, usually from the knees these days. Not the best video, but you get the idea
EDIT- beaten to a video, oh well… Some of those aren’t kata-guruma’s?
The one at 1:40 is awesome though.
tassie, I just got there faster than you. Consider yourself kata guruma’d!
Used to happen in my main group of friends ages ago, until to my pleasent suprise, they actually came down to the boxing gym for a spar. My friend that I sparred against was heavily into bodybuilding and they all treated him like he could kick some serious ass because he looked good with his shirt off (isn’t that always the logic?). I wasn’t even an experienced boxer at this point, back then I had only been doing it for 4 or 5 months. The spar was piss easy, he came at me with these same looping hooks, I just ducked, ducked, ducked, ducked, bang, hit him with a right hand. Repeated this for the whole 3 minutes. There was no more shit talking for a while aside from the occassionally idiotic comment like “Yeah but bro, if we fought in the street it’d be totally different” . Yeah dumbass, it’d be different in that I’d knock your ass out faster since I’d have no gloves on, and I wouldn’t be taking it easy.
Seriously, where do people get this misconception that they somehow would be better off in the “street fight” with no training whatsoever, than the person who’s hobby revolves around punching other guys in the face while trying not to get punched back?

Who knows man. Every guy likes to think that he can fight.
The “street fight” argument is just a way for them to remain delusional.

kinda like everyone thinks they’re a good driver…
i only fight people when they are extremly drunk and i’m sober.
it makes me look cool.
Must be hard to look cool when you’ve got a giant black spot on your face.
Ugliest beauty mark ever.
Never underestimate the ability of men to lie to themselves in the face of overwhelming contrary evidence…
The only time I have been ‘challenged’ by a friend, was at a defensive tactics course we were taking in VA. Most of our guys attending knew I had an MMA background, but I rarely heard anyone talk shit to me. In this case, there was no shit talking, he just jumped me from behind during a break, sinking in a RNC before I realised what was happening.
We were in a sitting position on the mat, so I laid back into him, bridged my head back over his shoulder onto the mat to create space, then worked free, turned on him and can-openered his ass for the quick tap(it took a little time to get free and turn, which was filled in by a running commentary by various guys on how disappointed they were at my performance).

Ahh, I like your style…pick an internet fight with a yoked out dude who has 85 lbs and 5 inches on you, carrying a precision firing weapon, who cannot paste his identity all over the internet because he is out hunting terrorists while you still do your laundry at your mother’s house.
Hey, tough guy, you wanna fight about it?

prevents them from seeing into my eyes.
also prevents me from getting a bloody nose or black eye.
noob question but in a real self defence situation would a kata-guruma be performed by throwing the opponent onto their head and is it just not done in competition to avoid serious injury or is throwing them onto their side et how its meant to be perfomed?
also is there rules in the ufc etc stopping ppl getting thrown directly on their head?
A kata-guruma definitely wouldn’t be my first choice in a self-defence situation. Or in a competition. But good for unsuspecting mates talking shit.
If I were to use it I wouldn’t try and throw them on their head. It would completely change the way you perform the technique.
You’re attempting to throw them onto their back. And if you don’t know how to do ukemi/break-falls properly you’ll probably land awkwardly and do yourself some kind of injury. Even if your ukemi is good it’d still hurt, just less so and lessen the chance of injury. Either way they end up on the ground and you’re still standing up, to either run away, deal with any of his mates that decide to help, or whatever.
Don’t know about the UFC question, I imagine it’s pretty hard to pick someone up and drop them on their head anyway.

Spiking on the head is a specifically banned technique in the unified MMA rules.
Judo wise, not sure about a rule against it but I don’t you’d score as high if they just landed on their head. The goal is to get them to flip as you throw with their feet going over their head. There would be no point in hitting their head, especially because they could try to use their forehead to block the throw.

HA!!! I love it. Okay, if I admit that you are cool for calling me out, can we call a truce? I told you, I like your style, and picking a REAL fight with a dude VIA the internet is def a ballsy move…I could either be a hard ass m/f, or Adam Lambert. You have not been around too long, but long enough to throw your 145 lbs around. Good thing Thanksgiving is coming up…is Mom cooking a big turkey dinner?
