I think your Judo friend was doing it wrong. he's supposed to use your momentum to feed into the throws and if he couldn't accomplish that , he needed to switch it up and get working on his sweeps. If worse comes to worse I do fight a bit dirty to get the person off guard so that I CAN accomplish at least the over the shoulder throw lol

MMA is all fine and dandy but I prefer to learn one and perfect it than be a jack of all trades sort of speak and only know the basics of certain ones. Granted I only know the basics of Judo but if I had the opportunity I would go further with it.

I wouldn't suggest a replica because if things went completely wrong and you actually do NEED a bullet to come out of it then you are screwed.
