Aikido is usless in the real world against a fully resisting opponent. It took me 2 years to see the light. Years later, when starting to train with Rener Gracie, I was asked to mount and keep it. I thought me at 270lbs, and Rener at 190, it would be a cake walk. It was an eye opener. Aikido is pussified Judo, where your training partner falls for your throws. Aikido guys actually take great pride in being able to fall pretty.

i actually agree with what your saying. another thing is that Aikido's moves are way to complicated that they cannot be done in a fight like it's second nature.
