How long until we start seeing robots replacing people in sports?

AI learning in robots is making them pretty graceful and accurate. Get a team of them together communicating with radio signals and they probably would be unbeatable. No need for coaches either. Referees could be replaced to reduce bias.

In football they wouldn't get concussions.
Might get a 300 mph fastball.
No more contracts or strikes.

I think for maybe "blood sport". The old battle bots show comes to mind.

For regular sports I think there could be a niche audience but I don't think the audience interest would ever replace human sports.
