I'm very disappointed for karate which totally deserves to be a core sport as it's really universal and combines artistic and fighting.
Like many of you guys i'm totally against breakdancing and i think IOC youth policy is wrong because ioc point of view about young people is biased.
When we were younger we all enjoyed watching all day and all night the olympics, and this is not going to disappear imho. I m not sure that because of breakdancing young people will be more interested in watching fencing, equestrian or rowing, or just waking up at 4 pm to watch bboys whith silly nicknames competing for a place in the final
