i've seen a documentary on history channel yesterday regarding pankration. How widespread was it within the hoplite armies?

according to the makers, the spartans were definitely trained in it as well as Alexander's macedonian army.

did other citizen states do it too or did they only regard this as a sport for in the arena during the olympic games?
