Hey MeetFighter guys (and ladies),

It's amazing how it only takes a broken bone to kind of put a damper in all of your fitness plans. Back mid august, a very silly cycling accident left me bed ridden for the better part of two months. It took a surgery to get the bones back in alignment, and 7 pins and a brace to keep the bones from moving out of alignment again. Not being able to really do any sports hasn't done wonders for my weight either although I'm now battling to get it back down to the numbers I had when wrestling and cycling intensively.

In any case, I just wanted to thank the MF community for all of the support during the ordeal, it's been great receiving so many get well messages and people keeping tabs on my recovery (self interested perhaps? ^_^ ). Anyway just wanted to give a general post to say that a couple weeks ago my surgeon gave me the all clear, the fracture's healed well and now I have to start to progressively get back to my normal sporting activities including wrestling.

I'm really looking forward to 2020 and meeting more guys from the MF community. I'm excited that I'll have a chance to meet guys in India, the US, Canada and hopefully more countries will get added to the destination list too! I'm looking forward to getting back to full fitness and doing it together with you guys!

Let's wrestle on!

Hey guys,

Thanks again everyone for your support during this highly frustrating time. I had my post-operation consultation with my surgeon yesterday. We were able to take off bandages and stitches are nearly all gone already.

I'm still not allowed to work, or engage in wrestling or other sports asides from indoor cycling. Nonetheless, I've got some good mobility on the clavicle already, so it's all evolving quite well, just hope it will be fast enough to face some Americans when I come over ;)

In any case, it's progressing, that's the most important!

Hey guys,

Good news, i had a good operation on Friday and was allowed to go home the next day. I now have to be patient, relax and just heal for the next few weeks and hopefully can come back to wrestling around mid September. Fingers crossed.

Appreciate all the support and warm comments, you guys are the best supporters one can hope for and look forward to making up for lost time on the mats!

Until then hope you all will keep wrestling, fighting whilst having fun!

Hey everyone,

I wanted to thank the MF community, my MF friends and past adversaries for your words of support.

So my fracture is pretty bad and i will be operated on Friday and out of action for at least a month. It's going to drive me nuts being glued to my sofa whilst recovering but thanks again guys for being with me on this unexpected journey!

Hey fellow MeetFighters friends,

Bad news, i had a bad crash on my bike today. Fractured a clavicle and will most likely be out of action for some weeks!

What a bummer, but I hope to be back in action soon.
