On the 80th episode of the Jiu-Jitsu Outlet show, I had the honor of hosting Dr. Rhadi Ferguson once again.
Dr. Ferguson has competed in Judo at the Olympics, at the ADCC world championships of submission grappling, at the IBJJF world championships, and also as a professional MMA fighter. Now retired, he teaches Judo and Jiu-Jitsu to students out of his academy in Florida. He currently holds the rank of 6th degree red & white belt in Judo and 4th degree black belt in Jiu-Jitsu.

In this episode, Dr. Ferguson joins us to discuss the principles of the martial artists - namely Judo and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
In this exclusive interview, Dr. Ferguson shares about why Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is actually Judo. If we want to know the principles of Jiu-Jitsu, we should look to Judo and the teachings of Sensei Jigaro Kano.
We also discuss the principles of combat and why long-passed martial artists like Jigaro Kano, Musashi, and Sun Tzu hold the answers to our questions.
Dr. Ferguson also discusses the need to focus on the martial element of the arts we practice. He also shares why it is important to always focus on getting top position instead of playing a "guard" based bottom game that has become common in modern BJJ.
Although many will not agree with his opinions about Judo and Jiu-Jitsu, they are rooted in historical evidence. Listen to this conversation with an open mind to learn more.
