Okay, back on track?
The UNESCO Committee defines a sport as follows:
Any physical activity which has the character of play and which involves a struggle with oneself or with others, or a confrontation with natural elements. If this activity involves competition, it must then always be performed in a spirit of sportsmanship. There can be no true sports without the idea of fair play. Is MMA a sport?
Is boxing?
