The main difference is in how close you keep the person to you during the throw. In Osoto Gari, you really project your arms and throw the person further away from your body. Here's a gif of 10th dan master Sumiyuki Kotani, performing an Osoto Gari. http://www.judoinfo.com/images/animations/kotaniosotogari.gif That said I'm sure Shields is bring his left hand down first in order to stop her fall, and like not kill her. Diaz's "Oh Shi - " face in the background is priceless. @Skidding: I think you mean Tai Otoshi. The main difference is in how close you keep the person to you during the throw.

I think she'll make weight fine. Though I do find it funny that men are guessing where a woman is at with her weight. When was the last frickin' time we ever got that right. ;) Well she looks considerably better than the chunkerific pic they had of her in the press conference a month or so back.

Not only is Shaw sporting a track suit that my Dad wouldn't wear (he's Older, Balder and Way More Irish), but he's got those Lance Armstrong wristbands! Look, I know EliteXC is strapped for cash, but could someone pony up the lunch money so Shaw can buy a clue? Oh Christ!

At first, it's just demonstrating a harmless RNC, then the second pic, she's getting tossed with a dropping version of an "osoto gari" puahaha. Poor girl, I wouldn't be surprised if she was wearing a neck brace for her next correspondence. P.S. Great job on the pics Esther, I'm a fan of ur work. Haha @ the lady interviewing Jake Shields.

I only posted ones where you could really see her.

If she does make weight, she is SO much bigger than Kaitlin - that girl is screwed.
