He was one of my first opponents - and definitely the most sporty one of the first batch of private opponents I had. I remember getting his place ready for matches and then us ending up in acrobatic actions, movements and holds with considerable speed in the whole competitive fun exercise. And at the same time he has never lost the touch to reality in his personality - a true wrestling friend who helps you to grow on and off the mats! Thank you!

10 X 2017: His flexibility is still there - how can you be in a police grip, where your arm is really locked at your back and pulled up and you still do not tap? Otherwise yes, I have had some years of BJJ which makes a little bit of difference compared to our first matches :-))

I had a great time with toro. He's a very kind, sexy man. Not to mention very strong and the right about of dominant for me. He had me in the air within minutes... and with ease. He's a great heel and I highly recommend meeting him if you can. I hope to wrestle around with him again in the future.

Ray is a solid grappler and is very well built. This was our first match but certainly not our last. He is a strong guy and definitively has some moves.
The match was all I'd hoped it would be. He was on time as was I. We worked up a good sweat and I think we both had a good time. I recommend Ray to anyone in the New England area. You will not go wrong if you get a match with him.

Great guy, strong man, built solid, great time wrestling him. If you have a chance, wrestle him.

This tall and strong stud is as tough as they come—aggressive, quick, powerful, and unrelenting. We had an exhausting and sweaty battle—he does not like to lose and will definitely fight to the end. Always safe and sane, he made our match both competitive and fun. I felt his scissors and locks for days after—thank goodness for the healing powers of the Mediterranean Sea and the beach :). Off the mats, he is an awesome guy—intelligent, funny, thoughtful, and good-spirited. A real pleasure to meet. My highest recommendation.

I had an EPIC match with Crusher77 & I made a new pal in the process. He is strong, muscular, & an all around nice guy. We did some fun sub wrestling & traded gut punches. Crusher has amazing biceps & was very easy to communicate with. I hope to see him again when I am back in Florida. Do not pass up the chance to wrestle this stud!

I had incredible time fighting Toro. He’s handsome, muscular and hairy, strong, aggressive and eager to win. Two alpha males rolling and sweating on hotel bed. He is strong like a bull and would not tap easily. Although this was a competitive match, it was relaxed and sane, pure fun.
Off the mats, we had great conversations and laughed a lot. I will meet this guy again I'm sure, so should you.

What a legend of this site Mariano is!
An all round nice guy, who not only is extremely strong and a very experienced wrestler, he has a "dynamite" body that is rock hard. And those peaked biceps are amazing. I enjoyed being demolished by them. I'm reasonably strong, but inexperienced on the mats and lacked aerobic fitness to be anywhere near his standard.
Strongly recommend meeting up with him if you can.
Thanks for the meet up buddy.

We had a fun give and take pro style match. He's surprisingly strong for his size and has a wide arsenal of moves. Looks great in a red singlet. Really personable too!

This guy got me into wrestling when I was young (34), slim (190#) and totally new. He inspired me to get started in BJJ. He wasn't my first match but he made me love the sport. (Thanks old friend).
