In the Olympics, the only fighting type of sports, that are entered for all athletes to compete in, are usually Boxing, Wrestling, Judo and Tae Kwon Do, and why not Jiu-Jitsu this time. Each of these sports has their own specific training style, training shoes, and training equipment.
Not to include MMA, since much part of the world, still views, and considers it to be a violent and unsafe sport, other than only including gloves for fighting. If MMA was to ever be a place in the Olympics, the rules would have to be changed, and more protective gear, would have to be used, if the matches are to be similar what is shown in UFC.
Boxing, being a sport that has been part of an American sport for longer period of time, whether the audience will be watching it at the Olympics or at home from their television set, it will probably be the most watched off all of the fighting sport events.

Since the Olympics is basically about safety for the competitors, wrestling is about competition and not to make the other fighter bleed from hard MMA knockouts.
Judo, a form and an art which it comes from Japan, and several of other countries practice the style, it will be a less focused sport, if not at least a much recognized than its counter part to Tae Kwon Do fighting. Though it is to be considered and is a ground fighting style, which most maybe get confused to MMA, or those who know little to nothing about the Martial-Arts, may find it fascinating, to even see women compete in these matches.
