Hindustan Times Delhi
|April 30, 2025
In a landmark move, the Olympic Council of Asia (OCA) has said that Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) will make its debut at the 2026 Asian Games in Nagoya, Japan.
NEW DELHI: The sport will feature six events under the combat sports category, marking a triumph for MMA's battle for legitimacy.
However, India faces a troubling dilemma. The country's MMA scene is mired in confusion with multiple federations battling for official recognition and many more either dormant or operating as unverified entities. The absence of a unified governing body has resulted in a chaotic environment, leaving athletes in the dark about qualification pathways in several continental and global events.
