It all started when I've decided that it's time for a rematch with Yann (2toughwrestlers in 1 team). We've met at 2010 in Madrid and had a whole day and night of various fights. I managed to survive it somehow and slept almost 24 hours after that meeting. Eight years later and about 250 opponents after (on his side) we crossed pats again, this time in Paris. Yann is always an amazing host and a very kind person, nevertheless I was afraid of that meeting, knowing the amount of experience he gained during the years. I arrived at night and didn't need too long to get my answer, I'm still able to challenge him, even today. It was a very rough fight with lots of turn overs and no mercy, he always manages to get all the aggregations out of me. I guess it's connected to the fact that I know I can trust him 100%. He never loses is mind and always stays within the boundaries that we set. I went to sleep with a smile.
The day after we had an oil match which was as good as the one we had in Madrid eight years ago, from what I can remember. Some people tend to be much less competative and more erotic when it comes to oil, this was definitly not the case. We had a 3 rounds very intense fight. The reason that we didn't go on, was that this was just a warm up for the main dish of the day, meeting N (ghostblinks).
I've been talking to N more or less since he subscribed to the site and we never managed to meet, which left me somewhat frustrated. I was following his progress and the fact that he was moving up the scale didn't escape my attention. Therefor I was really happy that he managed to find the time this time to meet. We scheduled for Friday night at his friend's place. There were four of us, but I knew that the first score to settle his between me and N, so we decided that this will be the opening fight.
Friday at 9pm we met finally at J's house. The conditions were perfect, the storm was raging outside and inside we had a big matted room already prepared for the challenge. J (bikermanrr) appeared as the perfect host and a sweet guy, making his best, letting me feel at home. N stepped inside exactly at 9, he was quite formal and seemed to be taller than what I expected, still I had the advantage. We exchanged some pleasantries and moved into our fighting outfit. I expected him to be fast, but didn't anticipate that he'll go first for the attack. It seems N underestimated me, thinking it will be a walk in the park. A few secondns after we founded ourselves rolling over and over on the mats, trying to get the first submission. The first round lasted so long, I can't even remember how it ended. However it became clear that there will be only one fight this night, and it will be one on one. The guys were generous enough (and also amused) to leave the stage to us, curious to see how it will end. Although the height difference it was well balanced and nobody really retrieve the dominance. We're both light-weight and good with our legs so the fight included quite a lot of scissors and slamming each other on the mat. After about 90 minutes we had to stop, as his alarm clock rang. We both tried to get a last tap, but after a few minutes it was obvious that we won't make it within the time limit. As you probably understood by now, no clear winner came out from this fight. We will definitely need to meet again to finish what we've started, and I really feel, we've only just begun. Can't wait for the next round, guess we'll need a few hours this time.
I didn't really travel for fights for some time now, this experience loaded me with tones of energy and happiness. I came back to Berlin all bruised and sore but with a song in my heart. Wish I could do that once a week, the perfect rivals with the perfect location. My only mistake was, not taking any picture of this epic fight, another point for next time.
