Exactly so why use it as an example of an effective style?
The Japanese "sport" arts like Judo still teach brutal street defense techniques in the Dojo. These days most BJJ schools focus on grappling contests and therefore teach too much sport technique and too little real fighting technique.
As the Japanese arts are all about breaking bones and maiming and killing they are far more effective on the street. Japanese styles are Battle Ground proven whereas BJJ is Dojo proven.

When did Don Frye do BJJ? How much BJJ did Mo Smith use to KO Conan? Of course you are forgetting about the legendary Japanese Martial Arts expert Sakuraba aka "The Gracie Killer" who publically humiliated the Gracie fighters one by one and smashed the BJJ myth. Yes my friend, when Japanese styles finally met Brazilian styles the results were virtually all in Japans favor. It only makes sense considering that Gracie family were taught Judo by a travelling Japanese Judoka and they changed its name to BJJ and lost some of the better technique.
