Europeans like combat sports like kickboxing. Americans and Russians prefer wrestling. What explains this?
>>
>>221395044
Sambo and mma are combat sports.
Did you mean exclusively striking? They're very popular here as well.
Striking-only combat sports just seem incomplete in comparison though imo

I'm just saying I've never known anyone who did wrestling(or other other grappling except judo) nor have I heard about it being popular in other European countries but Americans and Russians seem obsessed with it
apparently Finland does have a lot of gold medals in it at the olympics but I think it died out when the Soviet Union fell and we became more culturally Europeanized

I prefer wrestling whether Greco-Roman, Freestyle, Judo (jacket wrestling) or Sumo
It's just more interesting than strikes imo
Also Judo is popular in France, this guy is the god of heavy weight judo, Teddy Riner

grappling is for queers

>>221395044
MMA is not wrestling though.

Is this the KARA BOGA that sent whitey flying with one hand?
>>
>>221395173
Wrestling isn't very popular at all, we just have it as an optional sport in school, whereas most Euro countries don't offer such programs

Macron has kissed several black men, you might be confused.

>Russians prefer wrestling
That's mostly North Caucasus guys.

>>221395044
That's not true, the vast majority of people prefer team sports like football, basketball etc.
>>
>>221395219
All of them kind of suck because of how you score points. I can appreciate the skill and training but it's still a mockery of the real thing.

We want to keep the buffed guy away, they embrace their bicuriosity.
