'Ninjutsu' produced a UFC champ(yes yes, Jennum only had to fight one fight I know)
Jennum also won over a proboxer.
And he lost to Ruas and Tank. That was kind of expected.

Anyway I think the only two traditional arts that have done relatively well in NHB are judo and 'ninjutsu'. There are also so few reps(ninjutsu only had two?) of these arts in NHB... if there were more these arts would do quite a bit better. But between Judo and Nin, Judo has the better chance of course due to it's fullcontact sparring, although the two ninjutsu competitors that entered the UFC were also trained fullcontact under Robert Bussey.

Yeah that Christophe Leninger did a NICE throw with Mezger, did anyone see that?? He grabbed his shorts and thew him backwards and almost got the mount, then it went into the guard. It was awesome! And his was BUILT like a tank!

Bad Karma:

Obviously Judo played some role in the development of BJJ. The controversy is over how much.

Y.T.:

Yeah, Leininger was a pretty slick grappler. Too bad he couldn't strike for shit.

If he took the time though, he would of represented judo BIG time.
