Chewy's Case Against Jiu-Jitsu In The Olympics (Episode 342)

On this episode of the podcast, Chewy and Eugene discuss why BJJ should not be an Olympic Sport. We discuss both pros and cons of Jiu-Jitsu in the Olympics, how the Olympic Judo rulesets have influenced the sport, why BJJ being in the Olympics will decrease the evolution of BJJ, how the variety in BJJ helps growth, the difference between amateur and professional athletes, what will help to continue to grow Jiu-Jitsu, the importance of the lifestyle element to Jiu-Jitsu 31, and why decreased regulations allow for more tournaments.
