I have a theory about Judoka vs. wrestlers, but I'm not that informed about judo. How long does an average match last? and what does an average judo class consist of? any help would be appreciated.

For anyone that has done both judo and wrestling, how do they compare in terms of difficulty in a match, and intensity of training at the gym?

Superbeast said:Judo and Greco-Roman wrestling are almost interchangable, one with gi one with no gi, although both have some techniques not used in the other style. Freestyle wrestling is better for learning shoot in takedowns and armdrags. Study whatever you enoy the most.
having done some judo and some wrestling, wrestling involves alot more ground control and strength but judo leaves you hurting a lot more from the throws and some throws can be pulled off without much strength if your technique is good.

Are you going to the Canadian Open in Nov? Hamilton. Went to watch last year and in -83kg advanced no-gi there was a group of 25. 1st place- A 46 year old judoka, going 6-0 to win the gold and the championship belt.
When I watch judo it looks like judo, same with wrestling and bjj, and have been watching for a long time. But when I go to grappling tounys, quite often, I find it surprisingly difficult to determine styles.
