Sparrhawk is a strong, skilled, and friendly competitor who has an energy for the sport that I doubt I'll see matched anytime soon. He made me comfortable with the match through extensive chatting, flexibility in the location, and companionable demeanor during the meeting. This was key for me since I'm a complete newbie and needed to feel a certain level of security with it all. I also really appreciated that he respected the fact that I was only interested in the match and nothing beyond that. It was a very hardfought match where I definitely got smoked in terms of submissions but it felt pretty even overall. Still I know I was completely spent by the end and sore for the next couple of days. If you can meet up with Sparrhawk definitely try to, he's well worth the time and energy it takes to find a good clean match.

I had the opportunity to wrestle Mariano when he came back to Brooklyn. He is an awesome host and great guy off the mats too. He is an excellent and strong wrestler who make it fun even though he made me submit more than once. I look forward to our next match.

Met Ric on a very warm late spring day at the Barnet mat room. As you will have gathered from his pics this guy has a serious body, but the pics lie - it's even better and packed with strength, particularly the biceps as I soon learned when he caught me in headlock.

I was 4 subs down before I knew where I was, but fortunately began to get a handle on his style and come up with some defences. By the half-way point I had managed to find some ways to dodge, slip and endure enough of his constant attacks to make him work up a mat-drenching sweat and had even managed to resist submitting to him for a couple of 10 minute periods but I was having to use all my strength and concentration to minimise my losses.

A couple of times I managed some brief (very brief) periods of attack but soon ended up on the defensive again, and once even schoolboy pinned with Ric flexing over me - a cocky move, but can't say that I didn't appreciate the view!

By the end I was 12-0 down and also drenched in sweat. I'd like to say that it was all his, but it wasn't. Two hours of wrestling this muscle guy was as hard going as four hours against most guy - that said I'd do it again in a heartbeat and would love to have a match with Ric without time constraints. Maybe if I have 10 hours or so to wrestle him non-stop I can find a weakness and get a submission from him.

Super nice guy who keeps coming back for more. Definitely recommend him.

I'd been looking forward to wrestling this cocky muscle for a LONG time. Every one of my expectations was surpassed! He knows the pro scene, sells the holds expertly, struts his stuff like a star. As the name suggests, he is at his best when he is suffering in sleepers–of every kind–especially in scissor and sleeper combos. He is a blast and I'm looking forward to the rematch!

got to wrestle this guy after long time talking about it was a lot of fun too really enjoyed wrestling with him safe sane and a good time

Il a la carrure, la force, de quoi faire des ravages, mais pour l'instant il est encore abordable. C'est aussi émouvant que de voir un bolide au début de la chaîne de montage, bien avant que toute la carrosserie et les options ne soient installées mais dont on devine déjà les contours et le grondement. Ce sera un vrai plaisir de le voir progresser et devenir rutilant et difficile à vaincre. Graow!

Ghostblinks a très bien trouvé son pseudo: léger, puissant et rapide, il change de prises et de positions en un clin d’œil, laissant à son adversaire à peine le temps de comprendre qu'il ne le maîtrise plus. L'affronter est un réel plaisir et le voir combattre (ou devrais-je dire: danser?) un spectacle

We've waited a while to be able to meet... And it was worth the wait :) Great person, great looking/body and great wrestling. In the ring (would def recommend trying out) having fun showing each other the ropes, and, as with the best wrestling, feeling like two bodies struggling together as one, wanting it to carry on and on. Merci mon ami, c'etait/ tu es formidable!

Strong, quick, skilled boxer. Rounds of sparring interspersed with drills were great opportunity to gain valuable lessons from TD's considerable training/experience. All-around outstanding opponent. Don't take my word for it; challenge him and find out.
