We are thrilled to announce that one of the best wrestlers in Australia, Talgat Ilyasov, has joined the Absolute MMA coaching team!
Starting this week, Talgat will be running the Thursday 7.30PM to 8.45PM wrestling classes in the CBD!
Talgat was selected for the Athens Olympic Games in 2004 and was given a strong chance of taking home Australia’s first medal in 68 years but a serious injury forced him to withdraw and step back from competition for several years.
Despite being told that he would never be able to compete again, Talgat is now back wrestling competitively and is making his way towards qualifying for the Rio Olympics in 2016! His comeback is already looking good as he won the Canada Cup in 2015!
Welcome Talgat to the team! All grapplers and mixed martial artists would be insane to miss these sessions with one of Australia’s best!
