    Does Judo still have a rule that the competition only starts after both partners have grips on each other?

    Many years ago, there was a Judo tournament in Taiwan. Before the Judo clinch was formed, the guy just dived in and took his opponent down by single leg. The referee didn't know whether he should call that a throw or not. How can you win if the competition haven't even started yet?

    Not sure what's the Judo rules is used today.
