Judo is a combat sport originary from Japan, emerging at the end of the XIX century as an activity that covers physical, educational and moral aspects.
The objective this sport has is to bring down or throw the opponent to the ground, subdue them with an immobilizing grip.
The athletes of this sport are known as judokas, they use a uniform called judogi that is colored white or blue and they face each other on a 10m x 10m tatami where they display impressive combat techniques. They have over 100 available techniques which dive in 68 projection techniques or nage waza, and 32 control techniques or katame waza.
If the score of the judokas is tied, the combat passes to golden point. The athlete who gets the following point wins.
The judoka executes these techniques in a blink of an eye, for which an athlete, even when losing, can make an important change in the last seconds of combat. This is a sport in which one can not take away the view for a second.
