This Is Why KungFu Illegal In Olympics

Martial Arts were among the first sports that became part of the Olympic Games. Going all the way back to Ancient Greece, wrestling was a part of the 708 BCE Olympics. Twenty years later, a type of boxing referred to as Pyx, which means “with a clenched fist”, had its debut at the 668 BCE Olympics. In 648 BCE, one of the modern mixed martial arts precursors, pankration, was introduced as an Olympic event. During the years, martial arts like wrestling, fencing, boxing, budo, savate, and many others appeared at the Olympics, but not Kung Fu. In this video, we are going to look into the possible reasons why the Olympics don’t allow Kung Fu to be shown as a sport?
