Sombo is a style of jacket wrestling with submission holds originally developed in the former Soviet Union as a form of unarmed self-defense. The term "Sombo" is an acronym for the Russian Phrase "self-defense without weapons" (SOM-oborona Bes Orusyia). The correct English spelling of the sport is SOMBO, although it is sometimes spelled SAMBO or CAMBO in other languages. Sombo is practiced today both as a sport (Sombo wrestling) and a martial art (combat Sombo).
