They did direct Hellenic Games (Separated into four sections: Olympic, Pythian, Nemean and Istamian Games). The main events in each of the games included: Chariot Racing, Wrestling, Pankration (mix of wrestling and boxing, few rules), Stadion and other foot races.
Rules for individual sports are made by the governing body of that sport. The rules may be adapted for the Olympic format by the Olympic committee. Rules directly relevant to the Olympics are also decided by the IOC, the International Olympic Committee.

The holds here are wrestling holds and that's where the phrase originates. Wrestling has long been an Olympic sport, administrated by FILA, the sport's governing body. There are sets of rules for each of the various styles of wrestling. Prior to the formation of rules, wrestling was a free-form affair. There was no need to mention any such phrase as no holds barred, as that was taken for granted. It wasn't until after the sport became regulated that bouts where those rules didn't apply were billed as such.
If they started early they would be beaten or disqualified
One athlete from the home country promises on behalf of all the competitors to take part in the Olympic Games by abiding the rules, without cheating or using drugs. The exact words are: In the name of all the competitors I promise that we shall take part in these Olympic Games, respecting and abiding by the rules which govern them, committing ourselves to a sport without doping and without drugs, in the true spirit of sportsmanship, for the glory of sport and the honour of our teams. One of the judges also repeats a similar oath.
