Thanks for everything fella's🙇🏽‍♂️

After about 5 years in this community, I think it’s time for me to step away.

This hasn’t been an easy decision. Fighting and wrestling have been a big part of my life , not just physically, but mentally as well. I’ve learned a lot about myself through every match, every session, every connection I’ve made along the way. 

At the same time, I’ve also had to be honest with myself about where things stand for me now. The experience has been a mix of passion, growth, and, at times, frustration. And I’ve reached a point where stepping back feels like the right move.

I’m grateful for the people I’ve met, the matches I’ve had, and everything this journey has taught me. No regrets on that. For those still active,  keep doing your thing. Everyone’s path in this space is different, and I respect that. 

As for me, I’ll be moving on to the next chapter. Who knows maybe one day I’ll come back with a fresh perspective, more healthier and stronger if the time feels right. 


Take care, and all the best.

Glad you have some great memories and had some good matches, private wrestling does teach you a lot about yourself and only you know if it’s the right time to move on. Eventually all of us will be where you are now due to age or injury or many other reasons no doubt giving this up will be difficult but if it’s time then then it’s time. Good luck to you on whatever you move onto and you no doubt have some great memories to look back on.
