One can call it amateur MMA sport open to everyone with rules acceptable to the Olympic Game. It is a revival of the ancient Olympic sport of empty hand fighting back in 648 BC in spirit.

When I recently was back to Sweden I meet with an old friend of mine who used to be a ranked heavyweight boxer. Among the things we talked was the martial arts represented in the Olympics, and that MMA might be introduced in a near future and eventually be the replacement of boxing,wrestling/judo and taekwondo. Just speculations, but it might happen. Thanks for the info, hope the games will be a success
