After chatting for a while and missing each other in cities, we finally made it happen on my last full day in London - and I'm so glad we did. HS could be quite imposing if he was so pleasant, funny, and fun. We had a few wrestles where he definitely put on a mean face 😠 and we got to work. He is strong and measured and even though I was able to escape a few times, I'm not sure if it was my luck or his fatigue that may have helped. Great meet. Highly recommend!

JIT was a joy to meet. We hadn't talked before a small group meet, but I'm really glad I got to wrestle and hang out. He's a large, strong man - but even more menacing ... he has great body control and skills, which completely caught me off guard. For someone who specializes in pro, I thought I could make him tap with a headlock or scissors - but no sir.. he was quick at out maneuvering and strong in his arm bars and torques. Super fun and really nice - and I will not underestimate next time! Recommend!

Joel is an incredibly strong and skilled grappler. He was easy to communicate with. Flexible in arrangements. And a good conversationalist. And just so much fun to roll with.

As he is a lifetime wrestler, and extremely strong, I couldn’t do a thing against him. But he very kindly gave me some tips and suggestions that will make me a better wrestler when I meet up with other guys.

Highly recommend him and I’d wrestle him again.

Finally met up with NewPythons while he was in Lancaster. Very easy to set up a match and it was alot of fun.
He is really strong and tenacious, and has some great skills at wrestling.

We went at it for 90 minutes and I enjoyed every minute of it
Great person to talk with as well and definitely want to meet up with him again.

I highly recommend taking him on if you have the opportunity.

Very authentic and easy going guy, definitely a formidable opponent, I had my work cut out for me. Despite him being a lot more experienced in the wrestling scene than me, I felt very safe.
Would recommend and meet for round two if we get a chance.

mftyo15 is very reliable, punctual, friendly and easygoing.

On the mats, I enjoyed his Olympic (freestyle) wrestling background and the warm-up he was leading. When sparring, it is fun when 115 kg toss you around in a roll. Unfortunately for him, this is not very helpful in a submission wrestling match. So sorry that mftyo15 had to tapout relatively quickly - but I have to live up to my name ;-)

Happy to show him a few submission techniques and/or to go join him in one of his Olympic wrestling training sessions in the future.

I met this smiling face in a meeting arranged by a meetfighters fellow. I was in charge of explaining some basic grappling techniques while my fellow sorted out the differences with Olympic Freestyle Wrestling. MAKASU is quite talented and a sharp leaner. Recommended!

Before this introduction through the meetfighter fellow, I had sent him a message that had remained unanswered. Am I so intimidating?

Great to meet up and roll with Gui. He was kind enough to host and we had a fun sweaty session. He has a very toned body with great biceps that give him some good power. The wrestling match and arm wrestling was very one sided although my sense was that he enjoyed losing :) Would highly recommend

I'm very thankful to Ugo for taking the time, organizing and making the meeting possible.

He's really fun to roll with. As he mentions, he is very agile, but also really strong. He grips and doesn't let go. Yanking a submission out of him is gruelling.

We were going at it for hours, but it didn't feel like long at all. It was that fun. Being caged with this handsome man, glistening with sweat, stalking me with that determined look in his eyes, I kind of lost track of time.

I think this is not reflected well in his current pictures, but he looks like a bull in person. His looks and presence are very distracting. He already had quite a lot of power over me with that alone, without resorting to wearing speedos or singlets.

I really hope I get to wrestle with him again, and strongly suggest that you meet him when the opportunity arises.

I met up with Dirka for a heel jobber domination match.
I thought I could handle headscissors kinda well with enough time spent increasing the pressure by the heel, but after my meet with Dirka I actually changed my mind, his strength is just too much to resist and he didn't go past 40%; let's say that his dragon tatoo is a good comparison for how strong he actually is.
My neck screamed mercy for like a week after our match but I do not regret meeting him at all, and would do it again in a heartbeat.
Plus he managed to leg press me easily for reps (75kg).

Outside the match he made me feel super comfortable and was really kind in letting me and Recke have a match at their place during wrestlefest.

TL;DR
Meet up with him, but be ready for insane strength
