Karo's book "Judo for Mixed Martial Arts" is a gem. I still use it as a reference before and after class. It's body of techniques are well rounded and the no-gi grips are highlighted.
The big difference with Karo and others is Hayastan. They routinely did judo/sambo "without" the gi. They master control ties along with their regular gripping. Not "occasionally" but routinely. That's rare in judo circles. The main reason for Ronda's success with throws, along with JFlo. . Also, Karo was fighting grown men in underground MMA events in Mexico when he was in his early/mid teens. So, he had to learn to adapt fast. Most judokas who go into MMA haven't had the same amount of time learning control times, so they find wrestling more efficient. I've watched 95% of every major MMA event since the mid 90s, and you always find traditionla judo takedowns in every event. Just last night in PFL. 2 female judokas fought. Many MMA fighters have judo beginnings. It's just not emphasized . Great work, Chadi! Again.
The current UFC lightweight champion Islam Makhachev has very solid judo, in several fights he uses techniques such as Harai Goshi, Ashi Harai, Sasae Tsurikomi ashi... He says that wrestling throwing techniques are great, but judo techniques They are better because they consume less energy.
Karo "The Heat" Parisyan made a DVD called "Judo For MMA" since two decades ago. His instructional videos are still available on this website.
Try reaching out to the Jaxxon podcast team maybe they'd be willing to give you a line to Karo if you tell them you'd like to get into a technical overview of his career, maybe link your channel to really show what your about.
That's what I was thinking, they just had Karo on recently and covered his experience as judoka. Would be awesome if Chadi can get in touch with him
If you want another phenomenal grappler in MMA (albeit Sambo, but that's fairly close to Judo) there's a criminally underrated female fighter named Sakoto Shinashi that I'd love to see you do a break down of. She actually did a Sambo match against former #1 women's MMA fighter Megumi Fujii and beat her.
Karo Parisian and Manvel Gamburyan (sorry for bad pronunciation) where students of Gokor Chivichyan and Gene Lebell.✌️🙏
I had the privilege to train at the Hayastan academy sensei gene lebell and gokor. Amazing place Karo and Manny where in their teens I got to spend the end of class with Karo and Manny great guys during part the end of class he showed me some uchimata techniques. He just opened his own school in Glendale i believe. One of my favorite fighters for sure I feel he cemented Judo in mma
DO you have the name of his school Dojo??????
i laugh everytime i remember his beef with Nate Diaz in TuF lol
"Everybody say Im in the shadow of Nick Diaz, I say whats so bad about being in his shadow? Better than being in the shadow of Karo Parisyan, now that would suck."
that was such a professional hater line lmao
I just did a seminar with Justin Florez last night and it was one of the best experiences at a seminar I’ve ever had. Super jealous of people so get to train with him on the regular. A true judoka!
Interestingly, I asked him about finishing Sumi Gaeshi, without a gi l, as a counter to a single leg, and without using the ude Garami grip, and he recommended taking a near Overhook (a wizzer) and then reaching down and gripping the wrist that uke would use to post with in order to stuff the throw.
Interesting how people disrespect Judo in the MMA community yet so many Judoka are MMA legends.
even Satoshi Ishii has stated that judo is difficult to use judo in MMA, and this is an Olympic gold medalist and 2x All Japan winner, not some wanker like Chael Sonnen
Дзю-до - великая борьба и искусство. Мма - шоу для тех, кто не смыслит в искусстве. Так, что ущербность вызывает зависть, а с ней и неуважение.
@@7-_Kh ты прав но самбо сильнее
@@ADAM_COLLECTS Satoshi's didn't translate to great in MMA but I've never seen anyone use Judo as good as Karo. Nate Diaz hit a few good judo throws in his fights also surprisingly
BJJers are Judoka in denial.
Karo was the reason I got into Judo back in 2007.
karo was so fun to watch. He combined takedowns and submissions maybe better than anyone. Shame injuries and other life issues got in the way of his career. Absolutely a legend.
Sadly though, the wall wrestling meta has taken over MMA grappling. I dream of an upper-body mid cage takedowns renaissance led by judokas.
Khabib... Islam... they both have master of sports in Judo and it works pretty good
@@gcoffey223 Dude, the dagestanis are the quintessential wall wrestlers. Their approach is to bulldoze people against the fence, drag them down and smash them with superb top control. I'm talking about hip throws and foot sweeps in the middle of the cage, clinching for upper-body takedowns and not just for wall control.
@@gcoffey223they are the ones who popularized wall wrestling, they almost never go for a takedown in the middle of the cage.
The wall-wrestling is pretty much Judo, isn't it? Push them against the cage, and then Kosoto-Gake,
@danielmontilla1197
In Olympic wrestling, there is no wall. I laugh when folks think these guys can't take folks down in the center. Their opponents move away from them until they can't run back anymore. If their opponents stayed in the center, they would get taken down in the
Yes Parisyan was good but he ALSO know wrestling. As in hayatan wrestling which combine catch wrestling, freestyle wrestling ( evolved from catch wrestling), Greco Roman wrestling ( which gave us the suplex which later went into freestyle wrestling, catch wrestling, and even judo), bjj, etc. While judo is a form of JACKET WRESTLING what more beneficial for MMA is wrestling like catch wrestling and freestyle wrestling. Heck even Laetitia Blot of France BEFORE MMA career trained AND competed in judo, freestyle wrestling, and sambo. When she went into MMA she did train in bjj and, later on, Luta Livre ( mixture of catch wrestling and judo).
Even with how well Karo did in the octagon, the power of Judo is still massively underrated. Why? Because the floor in the octagon is sprung. It's bouncy. You can fall hard on it and take very little damage. And of course that's good for the safety of the athletes. We don't want to see people cracking their skulls open on concrete floors. But imagine if Karo did those same throws to guys on a normal surface, like concrete, wood floors, stone tiles, asphalt, hard dirt. There's knockout potential. Even without a knockout, it's brutal to take 2 or 3 hard throws. It's going to take the wind right out of your sails.
I'm incredibly excited to see what Kayla Harrison does in the UFC with her gold medal Olympic Judo skillset and mindset.
You don’t see that kind of stuff anywhere. It’s just a stupid judo meme that people say because of Joe Rogan
Funny, since judo is being "fought" in a much more forgiving floor.
As usual you bring great content, but I have one thing to ask all UA-cam content creators if they could also upload their content to other platforms, UA-cam is disabling ad blockers and plans to make ads in pause screens, only way to fight back is using platforms like odysee.
I have no problem blocking ads. But i dont watch on my pohne, I watch youtube on pc.
Karo was a impressive fighter, it's unfortunate he got in the fight with Opiates, that's what really defeated him. Awesome coverage as always Chadi.
This video was a long time coming. Fantastic!
I loved watching Karo. He showed that Judo could work in a "real fight" and that there were still plenty of techniques were available without the Gi. BJJ was all the rage at the time, but now many of the top Pros realize that Judo is much better in terms of takedown game and its efficiency in delivering power. BJJ is now a bit of afterthought for many MMA fighters while they all know at least a few "hip throws" of some kind.
Bjj is far from an afterthought in mma, that's silly. No one who is serious about training for mma neglects bjj practice. Those hip thorws are part of bjj. Most fans prefer to see striking, and the promotion knows this so strikers are more heavily promoted.
KARO IS A LEGEND
Hello Chadi!
Thank you for the video, good stuff.
I wondered if at 6:31 it's an O-Soto-Guruma since both of the Uke's legs are reaped. What is your opinion?
thak you
much love and respect ❤🙏
I have Karos Book, Judo For MMA. Had it for 12 years, really good book.
The Heat was my favorite back in the day. He got me into doing amateur MMA.
Very Very underestimated Fighter 😢
He Win Dong Kim But This match No Contest
What a fantastic channel. Learning so much
Too bad so many people don’t see that jiu Jitsu is judo and wonder why they wear a gi and bow lol
The judo disrespect is crazy
Que extraordinario fue la vision de jigoro kano con el judo
Appreciate the discerning eye of otoshi v nage
I believe judo will never break into MMA and the mainstream until no-gi judo becomes just as popular as gi judo. Today, most people view the gi as archaic. Judo, by extension, is ipso facto viewed as archiac too
Excellent video Chadi!
Yes !!!! It’s about time you talked about him!!
Karo fue un peleador fenomenal, muchas de sus peleas eran clínicas de Judo, un maestro anulando a los estilos occidentales de Lucha. Otros maestros del judo serían Fiódor Yemeliánenko, Ronda Rousey y Jabib Nurmagomédov.
Thank You. This is another great video!
Amazing vídeo, Chadi!

A lot of people to this day believe judo doesn't work without a gi, as if bjj didn't start with a gi and as if there hasn't been numerous succesful judokas in mma.
If there were more judokas in mma it would quickly become the dominant style even over wrestling,
Humm ... judo is too dependant to the gi .. the half of the technique in the gokyo doesn work without the gi.
karo was good and a fun fighter to watch, but is clearly miillion miles away from being a legend of the octagon
