The guy who brought it to Brazil and tought it to the Gracies was a student of Kano, the man who established Kodokan Judo, so what he tought to Carlos Gracie was actually Judo (still considered Jujitsu at the time)
Judo can be very effective, specially when you get to higher levels and get a grasp of your weight center, I can for example stand my ground against a guy that is 40 kg. heavier than me, of course it is true though that fighting a guy that is bigger and has the same skill level is not a fair fight

I don't doubt it. I never reached that point myself but I wasn't very focused on it and didn't practice hard like some. I remember a little guy that was very fast and serious about Judo and he kicked everyone's ass with his speed and technique.
