As far back as the ancient Greeks, Wrestling has been one of the historically active martial arts disciplines. Right up to the modern Olympics, Wrestling still remains an active part of the marital arts communities. The sport revolves around the grappling ability to throw and take down the opponent and potentially lead to a successful pin, which is where the shoulders of the opponent are held on the mat

The Olympics has included two styles of wrestling: Greco-Roman and freestyle. Greco-Roman wrestling disallows the use of grabbing the legs and is built around upper-body throws. In contrast, freestyle wrestling contains all techniques available and generally is considered the international form of wrestling.

With its worldwide adoption, wrestling has provided a base for mixed martial arts for many successful fighters from many countries. The ability of wrestlers to control the range at which the fight takes place, be it standing, clinching, or on the ground, gives them a substantial competitive advantage.
