Ive looked for videos but all ive found was demonstrations. I haven’t found an actual video of aikido vs bjj I know they both have their ups and downs but was just wondering who would win in that fight. They say no matter what fight it is you always end up on the ground, would that mean bjj would win easily?

Aikido is not a competitive sport.

ADD:

this one must respond to some of the other respondents who seem to know little about aikido and who, possibly from watching various competitive and now popular “sports”, are of the opinion that aikido is not effective or that the practice aikido is unrealistic.

Advanced practitioners of aikido perform their role as uke seriously and attack with full commitment while also having learned how to move with the technique applied and utilized by the nage so as to not end up being seriously injured.

An aikidoka has at his or her disposal, all of the various strikes of all other martial arts however, due to the effectiveness of the techniques, such are seldom necessary. After all, why should one feel it is necessary to cripple an oponent when he or she has already well controlled them?

As another respondent correctly pointed out, it is the practioner rather than the art seeming to mean that there are many who claim to be well versed in an art yet who are not. when such is observed unknowlegable persons will decry the art rather than the one who professed knowledge and expertise of the same while not possessing such.

This one has often heard jujitsu practioners call aikido the “thinking man’s jujitsu” which they hold in high regard realizing that the art of peace has no need to rely on brute force to accomplish its aims. Some of these same persons have respectfully begun to train in aikido.

As to your question, a well trained aikidoka would not allow him or herself to be taken to the mat (or ground) by his or her oponent.

namaste.

BJJ almost without question. it’s a combat style, aikido is a classical art.

Aikido doesn’t train against resisting opponents. EVERYTHING that BJJers know and do in fights is stuff that they’ve spent hours and hours of practicing against resisting opponents who are qually committed to beating them. As such, BJJers only use techniques that really work (they test this every class) and they have a lot of practice applying these techniques under a lot of pressure.

Aikido on the other hand trains in unrealistic techniques. They never practice these techniques under pressure (that is, against resistance) so they never work out what is useful and what is impractical. They are also just used to opponents relaxing so they can execute the technique without difficulty.

The BJJer would win, quickly and easily.

No style is better than the other. It really depends on the practioner. People like to blame their losses on the art they practice, when in fact they should blame themselves.

The rule of thumb is… if someone is gonna stand and fight a BJJ guy, they HAVE to have experience in some form of wrestling, judo, or sambo to keep from getting take down.

Since aikido don’t teach take down defend, first thing BJJ guy will do is go straight for take down then set up a choke or lock. It won’t be hard at all.

Hiratoro is completely correct. I’ve trained in many arts and have often tried it with very intense reallife scenarios. I know what works. If you doubt it, try it for real…

BJJ would in most cases win hands down. Like you said most fights end up on the ground.
For years other martial arts thought that their training in striking was so well versed that the BJJer could not take them down. This is not true and was proven for decades in Brazil and finally in the first UFCs where it wasn’t mixed martial arts but martial art versus martial art.

Type in Google “bjj v” and watch and learn.
