They thought they could defend against Shohei Ono. They were wrong. Shohei Ono became known as the “Ippon Machine” for a reason. His greatest throws didn't always come when his opponents were completely overwhelmed. Sometimes, they came after long periods of resistance, when an opponent believed they had successfully shut him down. Then Ono found the smallest opening. And everything changed. From his spectacular Uchi-mata against Ugo Legrand in the 2013 World Judo Championships to unforgettable throws against Riki Nakaya, Rustam Orujov, Fabio Basile, and other world-class judoka, these ten Ippons reveal what made Ono so difficult to stop. It wasn't simply power. It was timing, precision, balance, patience, and absolute composure under pressure. Some opponents defended against his attacks again and again. Some even appeared to have control of the match. But against Shohei Ono, surviving the first attack didn't mean you had solved the problem. It only meant he was waiting for the next opening. These are 10 of the most incredible Ippon moments from one of the most technically brilliant judoka of his generation. This is why Shohei Ono became the Ippon Machine.
