I found the same macho attitude on the mats with him, as I’ve discovered in our numerous chats before the fight. So much testosterone, so much trash talk, so much manlyhood and so much fun. I wasn’t sure if I was dying for laughing, or because his biceps is so strong, that he could squeeze you out in no time.
Unfortunately a previous injury didn’t let him go at it a 100%. Which means we need a rematch to figure out who the real alpha is in this world. Cant wait for this moment.
Outside the mats he is really funny with his attitude and all the groaning. If you want a strong lad, take him on.

An opponent I dreamt of for many years. Big, strong and with the right attitude. I think there is not a single hold or move that he doesn’t master. It’s so beautiful to discover his bjj skill set. If one move doesn’t bring success, he immediately switches to the next one. And he does it all in a very smooth, soft and safe way. Even though I am pretty sure he could have gone at another pace as well. Which I would love to discover in our next fight.
Outside of the mats he shows the same gentleman attitude as he does on them. Don’t hesitate to take him on, you will like it.

What a way to finish this year's MANIMAL event 👍 built like a bulldozer, polite, on time... Once into the match, gets rough and knows his wrestling... Very safe and sane, with a bit of a heel's head, even if he learned a lot about portuguese wrestling 😈 had a blast and I've been promised a good grapevine next time 👍💪 rematch? Can only recommend David to anyone interested in wrestling

I met this tank in the event managed in Lisbon and we wrestled after I was recovered because I was my back in pain. I was very worried looking at this big man in front of me but after I presigned in my mind (I'm a Catholic SPANISH lol) we started to rolling. Oh my god! It was one of my best memories in the weekend. Wrestle him means fun because at same time you face a beast you are with a keen guy who wrestle and wrestle again....out of the mat is even better. Just one bad side ...the short moments I shared with him. We will meet again big tank

NYCguy86 was great to wrestle with. He's a go getter on the mats and has a proactive style in bringing the game to (engaging) his opponent. In addition, he has a lot of stamina and persistence, whether it involves attempting to apply a hold, escaping from one, or just his overall wrestling game. A great conversationalist and easy going personality as well. If you have the opportunity to wrestle him, I'd recommend doing so.

It was a pleasure to meet scissorboi on mat. We had hot group match along with two other guys. It was great experience and I enjoyed every second of it. Friendly and nice guy off the mat, too! Recommended.

October 2015-After my defeat by Fghtr I crossed the Alps into Italy to take on Atonman.
I had been watching some of his earlier fights & could see he was fit , strong , fast & agile with very good technique. In my experience such people are frequently a match for someone who is big & strong, but slow & has not such a good or instinctive technique……
And that's what happened…..He hangs on like a limpet & once a sub is on, it is almost impossible to prise him off.
He is a very nice guy & I enjoyed our chat about Italy.
I recommend him, he is safe & sane.

First of all thank you & Matt74 very much for organising Manimal 2019 in Lisbon, had a great time.
Second thank you for one of the best ever fights I have had, on paper was a total mismatch in size and you are are highly trained fighter and I, to put it politely am not!
Was not at my best but somehow you inspired me to summon up some energy and I loved it. That is a measure of what the truly great fighters are that you somehow bring out the best in lesser mortals, it was fast moving and intense battle which often worry me but I felt safe with you and did not worry at all and had a sense of exhilaration afterwards. Obviously you won, but I don't care!
Grazie my friend you have my highest recomendation!

Fgt é super disposto, ele é bem rapido e não desiste fácil não, foi dureza amansar essa fera haha
Tivemos uma luta boa, eu levei vantagem com minha altura e força , mas poderiamos ter lutado por muitas horas e sei que ele resistiria por muito tempo.
Ele tem um fisico legal e é bem competitivo.
Fora do Ring é um cara muito maneiro e divertido,
Recomendo ele com certeza.

Tom and I were well matched on the mats. A couple of times I thought I had him but Tom is brilliant at counter attacking and always came out on top. He is a skilled, strong guy, slowly, methodically going about his business of dismantling his victims and making it look so easy, but always in safe and sane.way.
He is a nice, very tall friendly guy and I visualise him striding manfully up the alps in his home in Switzerland but as his English and my German are not good conversation between us was limited.
Definitely recommended.

The match with Jorge was a really long time ago but it is for sure one to remember! An amazing, skilled wrestler on the mats and a really great guy off them. Had really a great time and I am so looking forward to seeing him again!
