I have been taking BJJ now for a month and also have been taking some "informal classes" in Judo from a friend who is a Brown Belt for 4months or so. Here is the problem though. I am able to see him about 2x a week because he lives like 40 miles away from me. I haven't been learning formal Judo, but more so things I could maybe use in MMA. Some thtows, slams, holds, how to fall, ect. I just found out there is a Judo Dojo about 12 miles from me. I am thinking about signing up there. I just don't know if I will become too "grappler" like and if I can even learn anything being so new at both of the martial arts. I really like BJJ and I like what I have learned about Judo so far. I just don't know if I am going to "forget" that I was a boxer first and rely on the grappling. Also, are there any examples of guys in MMA who train in both BJJ and Judo? I thought about this and couldn't think of anyone. Any help on this would be greatly apperciated. Thanks.
