These grappling disciplines each offer a very different experience.
Combat Sambo is a more comprehensive style that resembles mixed martial arts. Kicks, punches, elbows, and knees are all permitted. Throws, wrestling-style takedowns, and joint locks are allowed. Techniques that are typically deemed illegal in most sports, like headbutts and soccer kicks on grounded opponents, are sometimes allowed in combat Sambo.
DIFFERENCES
Sambo vs Judo
The primary difference is that Judo forbids leg takedowns or joint locks anywhere other than the elbow, but Sambo does. Sambo does not allow chokeholds
SAMBO VS JUDO
Chokeholds are permitted in Judo, but they are not in Sambo. Leg takedowns and strikes are not permitted in modern Judo. In Sambo, these are legal. Sambo was developed for military use, but Judo was developed as a sport.
BJJ vs JUDO
The main difference between them is the focus. BJJ is focused on the ground game, while Judo fights mainly take a standing stance. The first has submission as its ultimate goal. The second aims for the perfect throw, scoring an Ippon.
The Judo fighter usually keeps a certain distance from his opponent. He moves around his prey, looking for an opportunity to attack. When he identifies the perfect moment, he advances, tries to attack, and, if failed, disengages. The fight seldomly takes place on the ground, as long-lasting engaged combat.
A BJJ fight begins similarly, but that’s it. When a fighter effectively engages, the fight will happen this way for the remaining time. It’s rare to see a fight with the fighters on their feet.
WRESTLING VS BJJ
The ultimate goal of the Free-Style wrestlers is to throw and pin the opponent to the mat, resulting in a winning. A pin is when you put your opponent on his back so that any part of both shoulders makes contact with the mat for two seconds. For this reason, the essential skills for a wrestler are the take-down and body control through weight distribution.
Although these skills may also be necessary for Jiu-Jitsu, submission is the primary goal. There are Jiu-Jitsu styles that favour fighting from underneath. From this point of view, being taken down, it’s not necessarily a bad thing.
