Cobra KO

Today, during a judo session, I was paired with a thin, frail-looking rookie. Before a mock skirmish, as I'm much bigger, I said I'd take it easy on her, but also to give it her best shot. She immediately threw me on my face to the floor, knocking me out cold in 7 seconds. FML

Someone's size doesn't determine their fighting skills. I mean, you should know that, you train judo. Ugh and your gross condescending speech to her. Can't smash that YDI button hard enough.

Well, there is truth in the saying "the bigger they are, the harder they fall." The only thing being bigger gives you is reach. But, being bigger also gives your opponent a bigger target.

Agree kinda if it was a small guy he would have thought the same

OP's comment specifically says "rookie". That would imply that the rookie status was known. In martial arts, that's something you would say and do for a rookie to show them the ropes about a new martial art, or any hobby that's competitive.

It’s not the size of the dog in the fight, it’s the size of the fight in the dog!

I know this saying gets overused a lot but I am going to say it anyway...Never judge a book by its cover...

Isn't that literally the opening fight of every movie with a fighting scene? "Main hero gets knocked out by someone half their size"?

Wondering what kind of throw. Most flip you onto your back and will knock the wind out of you. It sounds like the student couldn't get the OP up and over and she ended up landing on her face doing accidentally.

I bet the instructor saw this one coming from a mile away.

And that is why judon't underestimate your opponent. See what I did there? I'll show myself out.

This post recycling is really sad. Why????
