Recently the French Judo Federation announced that any Judo coach or practitioner caught teaching MMA will be banned from the federation, as MMA is illegal in France (Read that HERE).
Ronda Rousey, who placed 3rd at the Olympics in Judo, was not very thrilled to hear that, and put the Federation on blast via Twitter, shortly after her mother blasted the Federation as well.

The #IJF isn't judo. The judoka are the soul of the art, not the bureaucrats.
