Tuesday October 10 2023 - RobyCRecent matches
RobyC is from Montreal and he joined MeetFighters about 4 months ago.

I thought I had initially reached out to RobyC, but looking back at my messages, it was RobyC who reached out to me and I truly appreciate that. We live in a world where both sides are too scared to do the first step, but RobyC clearly shown that he was the braver and better man. 😅 He dropped a "Nice wrestling profile you have there ;) " and I honestly think that's a very great invitation to tangle.

I've decided again to put the mats on the floor in my bedroom beside my bed and invite him over. I can't do this all the time for family reasons, but this was a good time to do so. It's sometimes, moments of opportunity like this that reminds me that I constantly need to put an eye out, seize it and take advantage of it. This alternative is better than renting hotel rooms where the opponents doesn't show up.

Anyhow, during our match, RobyC kept being worried about not providing me a challenge and I kept reminding him it's more about having fun. I love sharing my holds with my opponents, giving them tips and tricks, teaching them what to do to break free or to make their holds more effective. RobyC has a very strong upper body and definitely knows how to tangle despite being new to the scene. He has a good build and a nice beard. I definitely want to have his build when I'm at his age.


Roby learns new moves pretty fast and you can see that he has a shining fiery passion about it. We've all been through this when we discover that there is a whole community out there that shares your interest. 🙂 RobyC explained me that his childhood made him a fighter today. He told me that he is of Italian descent.

We wrestled light to medium submission with a couple of give and take. I described to him my understanding of the word "promission", which I believe is simply a cross between submission and pro wrestling. We made sure to pace ourselves carefully so that we don't drain all of our energies in just one bout, so we ended up wrestling for a good 90 minutes. He is the first guy that I've wrestled who wears a watch to time and measure the calories spent and the hearts per minute. Hey, why not? We just had to be mindful not to hit his wrist.

Scissors was definitely an instant win against RobyC, but I did tell him that with a couple more matches under his belt, he could easily avoid my legs and defeat me. I think a re-match here is definitely in order. 😀

Lastly, I had forgotten to mention that RobyC is also an avid fan of gut punching which I take would make a perfect match against WalterG. They both are capable of giving and receiving a lot of gut punches and they are always taunting me to give them harder. To that, I usually tell them that the only thing I would be willing to crank harder would be my scissors. 😂
