If you like martial arts, you'll probably like Judo. It's a good art. But modern Judo doesn't allow leg attacks. (They used to, but then changed the rules.) So, a lot of Judo players don't do well in MMA because they don't know how to attack the legs, and there's no clothes to grab. Though the trips are nice. Very nice. They Judo guys are good at top control, but not so great on the bottom. Their ground grappling is not as good as you see in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
