I have a new respect for RBY seeing what he came from . I’ll definitely be rooting for him from here on out!!

Was already a fan. Assumed he was humble from his demeanor but had no idea just how humble he is. Like other people have said, I hope he goes far beyond his college greatness!

[@MrImaghost]

As someone that's from Tucson, it's very inspirational to see this. God bless him and his family.

I met Mike Bravo in Salt Lake City at XMAS clash youth duals. After one of the Tucson kids tech falled my son. My kid 8y/o was emotionally defeated. I had to pick him up off the mat. He’s not accustomed to the type of competition he seen that weekend. I had some firm, uplifting words of encouragement for my son condemning his behavior and refocusing him on ‘the next bout.’ Mike seeked me out randomly for a dad/coach pep talk. I had no clue who he was until now but am very appreciative of his counseling and confirmation. Thanks Mike, from Idaho. You deserve the glory

[@coachpaulbusinessenglishen3764]

A lot of respect for this young talented man! Where he came from and what he’s done with his life. I believe RBY will be successful in whatever he does in his life after wrestling!

[@Jaybird165]

This kid was born with God given talent and he made the most of it! He was as quick as anyone I have seen in the NCAA! I hope he can make it in MMA!

[@josephjojo6479]

Not quick enough for vito

[@Jaybird165]

Romans head was not into wrestling this year! He has been training with Dominic Cruz for over a year already getting prepared for MMA! Vito did lay a smack down on him though! Would love to see them do it again!

Nice. His grandfather put that work ethic in him and pushed him in that right direction. His grandfather is probably the major reason he is so great.

True Inspiration for the youngsters here in South Tucson. Lives 3 blocks down from where I grew up and my family lives. Definitely taking my son to Sunnyside Wrestling program this summer.

[@Scrooks1]

Sunnyside High School in Tucson was winning state wrestling championships when I was a wrestler at Glendale High School back in the 1970's. I remember the year they lost to Mesa High School in 1976-77 school year. I believe they had won about 10 consecutive state championships before that year. Tucson Flowing Wells was pretty good as well. I hope RBY's loss in the NCAA final match will inspire and propel him to an olympic gold medal in 2024 in Paris.

[@joecordaway3783]

One of the best Bios of a talented and respectable young man. Congratulations on graduating from Penn State and inspiring others through hard work, perseverance, heart and determination. Definitely a video I will be sharing with my family and friends.

[@CNOELLE]

Loved this documentary and seeing RBY’s journey and humbleness shine through ❤ I am definitely a big fan

[@botabs.8247]

It takes a village of people to help shape a true talent. This kid wants it more than anyone they put across from him. Bravo to all the people who kept pushing

[@botabs.8247]

I wasted so many years of my life following people. I didn't realize my own dreams until I was 38, and now I build off of this kid, well man and it shows me I got it. RBY everyone,the inspiration our world needs and wants.

Beautiful documentary. Opened my eyes to this man's character and past.

[@farbeyonddriven8173]

When Bo opened his MMA gym near State College I went. Nolf, Cael, Bo, Cassar, Snyder and RBY were all there. I was 57 years old and never had ask anyone for an autograph but I ask them all to sign my shirt. Out of all of them RBY seemed the least happy to do it but he did. Now I think he was just that shy. Bit of a bummer about the natty this year but.....What a solid dude!!

[@tracyhubbard2538]

Roman Bravo Young's story resonates with me on a personal level, as I too have faced many of the same struggles he did. Despite these obstacles, Roman was able to achieve great success in wrestling and has become a role model for young athletes around the world, especially those who come from similar backgrounds. I believe that Roman's story can inspire young black African American wrestlers around the world who have faced similar challenges in their lives. By sharing his story, we can show these young athletes that they too can overcome adversity and achieve their dreams, no matter where they come from or what obstacles they may face. I would like to express my deep appreciation for the work that has gone into producing this documentary. I hope that it can be a source of inspiration and motivation for young athletes everywhere who are striving to achieve greatness in their lives.

[@bryanchapa2879]

Amazing documentary ! Born and raised in Tucson and love the fact that this kid and Dom did what they did and achieved so much..

[@michaelbradford4444]

RBY is been my favorite collage wrestler and I've been worried that his recent loss might have messed his head up but now that I know who Roman is and the support and love he has I'm relieved. I now am only concerned about Spencer Lee.

I appreciate RBY allowing the story to be told, I lost my eldest Son to Fentanyl, it is very important people see a way out. Addiction affects everyone, could be just sugar, we are all addicted to something. I love Wrestling and the support of the community. Wrestling is not for everyone but filled with strong people that acknowledge their weaknesses and are willing to work on them with others. 💪❤️

[@arcstatic8950]

That's crazy! His dad was from the same place that Mark Hall went to high school. Quite the story this young man has. I wasn't a fan after he won big 10, and said it didn't matter. But I can't help but respect him now, seeing how hard he worked to overcome so much, and become a champion. I was wrong. This guy is stand up. His dad was a really good wrestler, a tough kid, and good with the ladies. I remember him well. I bet he's proud of RBV, no doubt.

[@TheMab2180]

Excellent. Just an excellent piece of an inspiring story.

[@dangerpowers4582]

Thank you, Flo. This is a great documentary. My introduction to RBY was when he cradled Desanto twice and I was telling my Dad there is something special about this dude. On another note, NCAAs would be held at football stadiums every year if I had any say about it.

[@georgesealy4706]

Great young man. He will.continue to do great things.

[@gregorywafer9705]

Mike Bravo was consummate coach of others since Stafford and Tucson High School. He was knowledgeable and driven as a team mate, trainer and athlete.

[@DA-bp8lf]

He grew up with the perfect ingredients for someone that wanted out of the situation he was in. Luckily for him, he had a talent that he used to escape his chaotic childhood and build the life he wanted. Without the adversity in his early life, do we have the RBY that we all know and love now? Kids that are coddled and babied when there young, don’t have enough fire in there bellies to rise up to level of athleticism that these kids do. It does happen, but it’s very rare. This guy is an amazing athlete and human being.

[@youmang]

RBY is amazing. Hope he makes the move to freestyle. That was funny hearing him say he'd never heard of Penn State wrestling after what he's accomplished there. I hope he is as good at his studies.

[@bryanchambers1964]

I was a wrestler out of Cali, its such a great sport. I wasn't as good as this kid though. I enjoyed watching this. To be the best wrestler ever out of Az is saying a lot. I know they have had at least one gold medalist, Henry Cejudo, and at least a few other olympians.

[@francostacy7675]

RBY….I wasn’t a fan at first because I was a Desanto fan. But he has won me over through his wrestling. Now I see his background and I wish I was a fan sooner. I mean dang!….RBY I’m sorry i wasn’t a fan sooner. In many ways you have been blessed by your family but I wish I could help somehow

[@not_harrymaguire]

Probably worth stating: guys like RBY are why we need wrestling to keep growing. I'm not sure how tall he is, but let's say without wrestling he'd be like 5'6" 150 lbs. How many other sports could a guy like that truly show his athleticism at an elite level? Lots of small, very athletic kids not from the Northeast or Midwest never find wrestling.

[@IMMG3372]

Crazy to learn who RBY's father is. I remember seeing him at a freestyle tournament at Red Mountain High School right after he moved from Minnesota. The dude dominated every match with ease and everyone was wondering where the hell he came from. He stood out to me because he went from the mat after a match right to talking with random girls, back and forth. After seeing him dominate several freestyle tournaments in the Valley, I was surprised to find that he ended up at Sunnyside. I heard they recruited him, housing him, etc. I see now he had other reasons. I believe his father beat Will Jarman in the '98 state championship match, and RBY beat Will's brother Steven (there are 12 brothers and sisters) in 2018.
