Making Brazilian Jiu Jitsu an Olympic Sport


Making Brazilian Jiu Jitsu an Olympic Sport
The Issue
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a sport that has been going on since the 1920s. Karate, Boxing, Judo, and Wrestling have all been added to the Olympics, so I think it is BJJ’s turn to join in. Most fans of BJJ were disappointed that in 2016, Rio De Janeiro did not have BJJ in the games. In MMA, fighters such as: Mackenzie Dern, Brian Ortega, and Charles Oliveira have been crushing it in the UFC using BJJ. Your vote can help us bring this sport into the Olympics.
