 | Dana White's recent remarks regarding the future of MMA in the Olympics  was overshadowed by UFC 121, as well it should have been, but they are  very reflective of the sport's current impact.
 
 As long as I have be an avid MMA fan, I couldn't help but think about  the great fights that would be on display for the for those that  had  pre-conceived negative opinions about the sport, or had never seen it  before.
 
 Wouldn't the spectacle that it would be and the great stories to come  from it be enough to sway even the most stubborn opponents?
 
 Probably not.
 
 But either way, the sport of Mixed Martial Arts in the Olympics seems  like a no- brainer to me considering the the rich history of Pankration  in the games dating back to 648 B.C.
 
 We're talking B.C. here, and MMA isn't in the Olympics?
 
 What a shame.
