Mike è un ragazzo dai mille interessi e dalle mille passioni, la lotta è una di queste.
E' stata una piacevole sorpresa, un lottatore molto forte che sa usare molto bene le gambe, mentre di solito ho incontrato lottatori che usavano di più la parte superiore.
Ottima la resistenza, non molla mai, e molto buona la forza.
Fuori dal ring è un ragazzo rispettoso, puntuale, attento e molto ospitale.
Spero di incontrarlo presto nuovamente e lo raccomando a tutti coloro abbiano voglia di una bella sudata perchè ci sarà da sudare con lui.

Hapwrestler is a beast and it was obvious who was gonna be the dominating this match. Thankfully he was able to accommodate and allowed me some fighting chance to put him in some holds and chokes. The session was hot , especially the mutual muscle worship and flexing. Gonna get bigger to take him on again.

Powerguy truly lives up to his moniker. We put on the gloves and sparred for several rounds, and he nailed me with some powerful shots while keeping the overall intensity under control. A very handsome gentleman whose pics don't do him justice. Was a real pleasure boxing with him!

I had several rounds of sweaty fight with this really persistent young warrior. I felt, we gradually enhanced intensity and the power of our punches, which really made it a nice, masculine match. We exchanged both many well targeted punches, and I was amazed by his overall moving technique and also how well and long he was able to bear my body shots. He is a very nice boy to talk with off the mats too. Strongly recommended.

Ri/incontrato dopo qualche anno.
Nuova raccomandazione, devo dire che dal suo ritorno in meetf. La sua tecnica penso in JJB e’ davvero notevole, conosce e applica ogni chiave articolare possibile a suo vantaggio. Ne sono uscito a pezzi per diversi giorni, attenzione non fa’ sconti !! Purtroppo per colpa mia il tempo a disposizione era pochissimo per cui e’ stato un incontro concentrato e sudatissimo .

I had the privilege of visiting this legend and locking up with him over a few days, and it could not have been more enjoyable. I landed in nowhere, turned north, drove another 50 miles, and found myself at Michael's place. Naw, not really, but it is a bit off the beaten path, which made me feel right at home.

What created an even more comfortable situation, though, was his obvious intelligence and disarming charisma that make him so likeable and approachable, even on an initial meeting. Our conversation was easy and authentic, and his hospitality far exceeded my expectations. Kinda felt like I was reconnecting with an old friend, not meeting a stranger with an intention of kicking my ass.

The grappling skills he brought to bear on those solid mats in an unfinished basement are not insignificant and his ongoing BJJ training promises they will continue to improve even more every day. His technical competencies are not what made the action so fun however; it was his aggression. A willingness to engage in high-intensity, full-contact grappling and striking took the occassion to a different level. Joint locks, chokes, punches, kicks, and knees all flew freely, and there were deep bruises aplenty by the end.

I have never had anyone invest so much into a wrestling encounter. I'm not sure Michael has a "B Game," because I experienced nothing but A level effort in the fights, the comraderie, the hospitality and the followup.

There is absolutely no reason ever to hesitate in jumping at an opportunity to roll with this guy. Highest recommendation.

I had the chance to go toe-to-toe with Locksmith for about 4–5 hours, and let me tell you, it was one of the toughest, sweatiest matches I’ve ever had. This guy’s got some seriously strong headlocks that are tough to escape from and it is definitely a game changer in a match.
He’s an absolute beast, both in terms of strength and endurance, but what really stands out is how focused and disciplined he is. It was an all-out alpha vs. alpha battle, and he didn’t back down an inch. If you’re looking for a real challenge, he’ll push you to your limits in the best way possible. Off the mats, he is very nice guy. I am glad we met and looking forward to our next match. I definitely recommend him!

Update (15.11.2025): We had the second round. We wrestled 2 days in a row. Locksmith is not a joke. He is super strong and his holds are so tight. He is really good at headlock and body scissors. He mostly dominated me this time. I am looking forward to the next round.

Had a great submission match with him. Easy to talk to and strong on the mats. Looking forward to round 2!

We have been talking for a very long time and I had opportunity to finally fight him. Really recommend meeting and fighting him.

Met the legendary Mr. Paulg today — his energy, skill, and spirit in wrestling are just amazing! Truly inspired.
