Should competitors be called 'MMA players'?

We always refer to them as MMA fighters, but these guys aren't really fighters in the purest sense. A competitor in Judo isn't called a fighter, he's usually called a player.

The real fighters are the guys going toe-to-toe with the Taliban in Afghanistan, or fighting in urban terrain in Iraq.

I think its time to stop disrespecting these guys and recognize the distinction.
