Default Olympic Sport

Boxing

Wrestling

Tae Kwondo

These are all Olympic sports

I think NHB should be as well.

How would you go about getting NHB recognised as an
Olympic event?
I think you'd probaly need some kind of governing body a la WBA.

I don't think there's a governing body nationally let alone
internationally.

It would do wonders for the sport if it was recognised as an Olympic Event.

What do you reckon & why?

Cheers Jez

I agree MMA should be an olympic event... It would bring a lot more money to the game which would be quickly followed by a lot more competition, diversity of styles as well..
