MMA has to at least get a mention for most reactionary sport because of its current real-world intersection with the Trump admin, Saudi sports-washing, Ramzan Kadyrov, etc. Although obviously combat sports historically have a strong prole-streak, at least among the fighters themselves.

Otherwise most reactionary is probably e-sports (because gamers suck) or racing (with cars), since it seems to have a high concentration of rich people and inbred european royals.

Most proletarian is probably soccer, running, and maybe bocce for being so accessible.

The amount of domestic abuse cases in MMA is crazy. It probably rivals police tbh
