MMA: the fight to have a discipline recognized

The MMA: it is a mixture of several combat sports, such as judo, wrestling and Thai boxing. MMA is not officially recognized as a "sport" in France, as it is contested for its violence. In 2013, during an interview on France 2, the Minister Valérie Fourneyron had even openly opposed this sport in cage, considered dangerous and disrespectful of the opponent. However, the MMA has a lot of followers in the region. In Reims, the club is made up of a hundred licensees, 6 of whom practice competition. This is the case of Anthony Dizy, who must travel abroad, in Switzerland for example, to be able to fight officially. Indeed, France, which follows the recommendations of the European Commission on Human Rights, does not allow for the moment to organize competitions on our territory.
