Ulike today discus throwing is different from ancient greece.

They do it today but not in the olympics. They did it naked in Greece. They would have a free for all without weapons. MMA fighting had ref’s and you couldn’t hurt someone too bad.]]> 2020-01-21 13:51:55 UTC https://padlet.com/eder_villegas/slyfchzgriz0/wish/433978562 https://padlet.com/eder_villegas/slyfchzgriz0/wish/433978937 Horses pull along a driver in a chariot.

Grappling with an opponent to try to hold or throw them down. The wrestlers objective was to throw their opponent to the ground in a standing position. A point is scored when the wrestlers back or shoulders touch the ground. 
How is it played? Takedown-You score 2 points for taking your opponent down to the mat
Escape- you score one point for getting away when you are pinned down on the mat
Reversal- you score 2 points when you are down on the mat and you go underneath and gain control of your opponent 
Near fall- you get 2 or 3 points when you almost but not quite pin your opponent 
Is it still played in today’s olympics? Yes, wrestling dates back all the way to ancient olympics and it still played in today’s olympics.

There was no weight range or fixed time duration (the match ended when someone surrendered), but there was age categories. The boxers wore leather thongs around their knuckles and padding around those. Today boxing is still in the Olympics but things have changed such as the attire and rules. The boxing is a lot less intense and runs less risk of serious damage. ]]> 2020-01-21 13:59:56 UTC https://padlet.com/eder_villegas/slyfchzgriz0/wish/433983319 https://padlet.com/eder_villegas/slyfchzgriz0/wish/433983325 Ta’Bria, Sydney , Abby
