Flavio canto is also a bjj black belt. He used to train around the same time bjj was starting to become popular at rio de janeiro. At a time most bjj academy's had a rivalry where they saw each other almost as enemy's, he was welcome at every bjj academy. Many well know BJJ athletes speak highly of him. He is admired at both judo and bjj community here in brazil.
Canto Was a beast. There is a legend that , when he came over to train in Kodokan, he submited a lot od Japanese Judokas when training Ne Waza, one after the other. Tks for the excelent breakdown CHadi
A good newaza game opens up many possibilities in Judo. Whereas many Judoka go into turtle or roll onto stomach and wait for referee to stand them back up, Brazilians often welcome the newaza fight. Travis did an amazing job of escaping Canto's pin and submission attacks, even before he studied BJJ.
Judo combined Tachi- and Ne-Waza is a thing of beautiful poetry in motion. It's a shame that the IJF don't really see it that way. I would much rather see a regular throw that is not really an Ippon, continue on the ground, than half-measured sacrifice throws being essentially guard pulling.
Too bad that on judo competitions judges do not give you enough time to work your ground game. It hapenned to me several times that judge would stop fight just before I manage to pull some choke or juji gatame. Thats why I love BJJ.
Awesome video as always!! But at 10:32 it wasn’t kouchi, it was kosoto gake, canto right leg hooked stevens’s left leg (and also the right leg) from the outside. It is clearer at 12:29. In this way he falls on top of stevens already in position for a perfect transition into tate shiho. Thank you for the awesome channel and contents.
Very well done, Chadi. Remember both matches well. I thought the final throw was a kosoto gaki . Outside rather than inside, but my eyes are bad. Not sure, but brilliant, well produced work.
To me Stevens's laugh looked like he was happy about having escaped that osaekomi and laughing at how he knew what was gonna come at him and he knew it was gonna be tough.
Thanks Chadi, nice video. Let us not motivate anyone to call that a Ronda Rousey roll 😝. If any English speaking judoka should get credit then maybe Neil Adams - he taught quite a few ways to do it before DVD, youtube or the UFC, I still have it on a VHS tape - although it existed long before that. Keep up te good work 👍🏼
That is some Jiu-jitsu knowledge. Flávio was state champion in jiu-jitsu in the purple belt when he was a teen, for people who understand Portuguese here is a video of him talking about that jiu-Jitsu title also there are some pictures ruclips.net/video/tFCzle9DW6w/видео.html
Judo marched do not look like this anymore unfortunately for sure. Love the various Canto choke opportunities in my bjj and will add the standing version guard pull as well 🎉🎉
Did travis stevens tapout from pain or just from the pin. It looks like Canto didn't have his head tucked for a tight arm triangle. Looked kind of loose. Did he tap to end the match or tap from pain? really confused about this
Gotta love judo, real life application, contact, dignity, usefulness, aikijutsu origin but so different that that useless tangents they call jujitsu. Aikido does have some usefulness, but you never see aikido sparring, that would be judo!! But in real life and multiple attack you have to have good striking, that’s what I love about Hapkido and taekwondo, along with judo
A note for my kid. This was a very good video for demonstrating the necessity to switch top positions to adjust to opponents frames and escape attempts.
Is this a joke? Travis Steven lost a judo match to a Canadian (does that sound tuff), and never got gold in the Olympics. And under John Danaher he hasn't accomplished ANYTHING IN 18 MONTHS! maybe someday he could beat someone on the ground. Flavio Canto is the only Brazilian to be proud to be 1st class Judo because of his 2nd class BJJ. You know Flavio only became champ as back up to his football career? Both of their best accomplishment is being second best, a jack of 2 trades master of none. Winning Gold in the Pan am is 2nd to getting a job at Arbys. At least Arbys you get free cheesish sauce that if you snort you contemplate life. Its like becoming a French citizen, what did that really accomplish? a crazy wife, shit diet, a car and soon to be riot? I wish them both luck in their future as used car sales men. Hopefully someday they will learn the power of Dim Mak, maybe Ameri-Do-Te, or at least Chi.
What are you on about? Stevens is a Silver Olympic medalist, Canto is a Bronze Olympic medalist. Stevens has beaten many elite BJJ players, including Tim Spriggs, Jamie Canuto, etc. He took one of the Miyao’s back and almost won. Go watch his Copa Podio matches, the only one to handle him was Rodolfo Vieira in his prime. I’m a huge Canto fan, but your ranting is absolutely ridiculous.

Canto makes me proud of being a Brazilian judoka.
Me too.
Me 2
Me 3
He's legendary
My 50% is VERY PROUD as well 😅🥋 Flavio Canto is the greatest when is comes to newaza

What bjj guys do in competition is what judo guys do in training newaza in the gym by starting on the knees and includes pins
The pin truly changes the expression

Yeah some are clearly used as a guard pull
Well, there you have it! A complete crash course in Judo/BJJ accomplished in under 13 minutes. Canto is an absolute LEGEND

Didnt know that Chadi! Thanks! Canto has a incredible ne waza. Being from Rio must have helped him crosstraining with bjj probably
Indeed
Awesome video as always!!

Thank you Alessandro 🙇🏻♂️
@@Chadi thank you for all the incredible work and passion you give us
I want a part 2 and continue their judo journey!
You got it
You should've seen 2004 olympics qualifing between Flavio Canto and Tiago Camilo.
I'll look for it
@Marcelo Isoni - I suspect it might be the most search video on YT ; -)
@@jiujudo1307 I've got it recorded in an old VCR tape. Never found it on RUclips, though.
@@marceloisoni9158 Nice! Were you there that morning?
@@jiujudo1307 I have upload it. Give it a check!
Very well done, Chadi. Remember both matches well. I thought the final throw was a kosoto gaki . Outside rather than inside, but my eyes are bad. Not sure, but brilliant, well produced work.
Thank you! I repeated the footage a bunch to make sure it was ko uchi not ko soto.
@@Chadi Sorry Chadi, but it's clearly nidan ko--soto, not kouchi... :v
I saw ko-soto (both views) sorry
I really enjoy watching your videos you think you could do a video on japanese saw wrestling
It's on the list
To me Stevens's laugh looked like he was happy about having escaped that osaekomi and laughing at how he knew what was gonna come at him and he knew it was gonna be tough.
beautiful kouchi gake by Flavio 🙌
このテーマを待ってました。

Are you sure that wasn’t an Ezekiel choke submission?
They had three matches, M8.

Sevens taped out of pain. He was either strangled or armlocked and he had to tap quickly.

5:43 around the world. Watch it kid.
What's wrong??

Stevens said it was a neck crank
Flavio, o melhor!
Great figh. No need for poor commentary.
👍👍👍
🤙🏻
I see the Brasilin coach was Japanese no wonder he was so good
100%
He is brazilian. In Brazil we have a big japanese comunity.
Stevens was good but not at Flavios level.
