I"ll consider refs, participation, and rules as sport and tell you why I think it still (mma) is a discipline. In 2004 Athens not enough participation was there for mma to be in the Olympic Games . Stressed games because you cannot view mma as a game like chess, football, basketball, hockey, pool, snooker, etc. You can only disguise mma to look like a sport if you consider mma as matches. So then you have a chess match, football match, baseball matches, mma match, judo match, etc. But in reality it is a disquise and why I still think mma is a discipline based on disguises or strategy.

Ok... why are we discussing this? 
Stop being a tard, MMA is a sport that was a part of the original olympics (as Pankration) an incorporates elements from all other martial arts in the world.
You're either a troll or completely insane
