Theres a part in the middle of the video where he talks about olympics...
Who do you think would win, which country, and weight classes, and medals?
My first guess would be brazil

MMA Olympics?? it would be amateur fighters like boxing
but I think USA would dominate.....the MMA fever has gotten a lot top young athletes interested in MMA, the next Wave of MMA fighters will be much more athletic than now, and America has the top athletes in the world

I don't know who would win, but I'm pretty sure that fans would lose.
Look forward to headgear, early stoppages, more restrictive rules, and terrible reffing. And fighters who participated would not be in circulation for professional MMA events that occur around the same time.

this would look a lot like olympic boxing... giant head gear and knee pads... pts system etc....
ill pass....
The spirit and idea of the Olympic games is great but the Olympic comittee would chop this thing up
