I have never considered "fighting games" as sports games. Nor do I believe they should be put in that same realm. Although I don't consider WWE or TNA professional wrestling a sport. Athletic people take part in it but its entertainment. If I were to throw WWE or TNA in I would have to throw in Stuntmen from movies. I understand the OP's original point though. I would just say its safe to assume the majority would not consider Mortal Kombat a sports game.
