Ein starker Gegner, nur schwer zu besiegen. Wir haben beide hart gekämpft, und Spaß daran gehabt. Außerdem ist er respektvoll und nett.

Wow! Das war mal ein anstrengender Kampf! Zum einen war es ein ungewöhnlich heißer Tag, zum anderen ist bobmiller aber auch ein sehr sehr guter Gegner! Hat totalen Spaß gemacht. Gerne wieder!

Verynewbie has not so much experience but a learn fast and I think with every opponent he gets better.
He is a very friendly guy on and off the mats and has my full recommendation.

Squashlad is a very friendly and polite guy. He is strong and has much experience because of the big number of his opponents.
He has a very good defense especially for his arms, it was nearly impossible to get a armlock. I think he has to improve a little bit his attack skills.
Offside the mats I had a very good conversation with him.
He has my best recommendation!

July 2016 - Another great days wrestling, great company and another great wrestling facility.
Rochdale this time and it was a very hot humid day, not ideal for a 3 hour wrestling session.
First up a pro bout in the ring, something I've always wanted to try so when Dave suggested it i jumped at the chance, a little light warm up I think he said but I soon found myself in all kinds of holds and pins as he released the inner heel. By the time we got around to the submission match we were both drenched in sweat and not in the best fettle and soon found myself defending his attacks, quite successfully for a while, even managed the first submission. But sadly all down hill after that, he realised his earlier mistake and managed to keep my legs firmly out of play.
I guess the north east title still remains a little too far south, despite my protests of not being a genuine heavyweight!!
I've done quite a lot in the 3 months I've been wrestling and most of it is because of Dave. I would just like to say a big thank-you for all the help and encouragement.
Big guy, big heart.
Met Dave this morning and boy did he not disappoint. He saw that I was nervous at first and put me at ease straight away before cranking up the pain, ha ha.
He was kind enough to show me some holds but I'm not sure for who's benefit as he had a wicked grin on his face as he was putting on the pressure. He assured me that I didn't totally suck at this and I even managed to catch him out once or twice, three times but who's counting. I highly recommend wrestling this mountain of a man if you get the chance, no matter what level your at. Don't let him get on top though and if he's smiling at you get ready as he's planning something painful. Off the mats he's a lovely bloke to talk to, and I had a really enjoyable but painful morning with him.
I highly recommend Dave he is safe and sound and one tough opponent. I look forward to Round two.
Dave is far too kind with his rec, basically I turned up when I said I would, I got stuck in and I didn't totally suck.

Mad Grappler T is one of the best guys I know from meetfighters till now, he has very good techniques and defense and a blue belt in BJJ. He is also a nice guy with pretty muscular body.
As he wrote we were very equal I could only control him a little bit more with my weight advantage.
It takes me for hours to get him in a good hold for some gut shots to his nice abs but his abs could not take very much :-P
After the match we had a good dinner in Madrid.
And now 2 days after the match I can still feel some pain in my muscles from the match.
If you have the chance to meet him and search for a competitive fight then do it. He has my best recommendation.

2025: I had another meetup with Mad and his friend. We had a great fight again and very much fun on the mats 😛

Tropical temperatures could not constrain ourselves of having a "hot" match. BritGuy is a friendly guy to hang around with and a sexy guy to have close body contact with. It was my pleasure to have him on my mats.

July 2016- Third outing with my Buddy from Geordieland. Was proud to introduce him to one of British Wrestling's most hallowed sites Rochdale…. It was a humid day, not ideal for British guys to wrestle. Mark arrived at mine at 7 am, a time of day I have not been familiar with recently.
At Rochdale we started with pro, both of us entered into the spirit of it . Me as Mick Mcmanus growling & fouling, Mark as jobber suffered beautifully. The grannies would have loved him.
Then we had a fair old scrap GRR. But because of the heat neither of us were on top form. He is easy to arrange a meeting with , reliable & good company.
He defends well & it is tricky to get down onto the mats & establish a ground position over. Even if you do, you will have to deal with some effective & sustained counter attacks.
Which brings me too…………..
If your on top & his legs & feet start to shift. His signature move, a leg submission is almost certainly under way. MOVE YOUR LEGS & FEET OUT OF HARMS WAY AT ONCE, IT MAY ALREADY BE TO LATE! (it can slip stealthily under your radar in the guise of simply trying to shift his body). Once on it can be fatal. An excellent move, wish I could do it. Fear my days as NE champ may be numbered!

Don't write a long recommendation making out I'm better that what I am said Glasgow1971 during our very enjoyable session today.
Will try !
He is a very nice friendly guy with a good sense of humour, modest to a fault, very easy & straightforward to arrange a meeting with.
Physically he is a tall well built guy, who has a job that keeps him fit & he has above average strength& could probably model underwear for the more mature male market . Today was his first ever fight of any kind since junior school , so he was understandably a bit nervous( AT FIRST THAT IS !!) Once we started grappling within the limitations of my living room, I took in his strength & agility, he defended well & uses his long legs to great effect & got at least one submission using them. Reckon he is a natural wrestler with a bit more practise a genuine contender.
He claims not to be competitive ………However at the end of of our session I remarked he had got a couple of submissions, good for a first time. Actually he said looking at me rather hard I got 3 . He was quite right! he did! Def recommendation, safe & sane. Hope we can meet again.
Ps unlike certain other geordie wrestlers on this site he did not insult me before the fight or whinge about the result afterwards!

10/10 is the mark. Great guy!!! Strong, arms , shoulders and legs. He learns quickly. Do not hesitate to contact him.

Quelques longs, tres longs mois d'attente..... Et je suis définitivement fan des Australiens à l'accent occitan ! La prochaine fois, sans faute j'essaierai d'équilibrer un peu plus le jeu (histoire d'essayer de fatiguer l'athlète). Je n'aurai pas la prétention de faire pencher l'issue des combats en ma faveur, car l'expérience est là et bien là mais je vais progresser ! Un très grand moment à revivre ici ou là-bas encore et encore !
