Roman Guillermo Bravo-Young (born January 28, 1999) is a Mexican-American freestyle and graduated folkstyle wrestler who competes at 57 kilograms.[2] In freestyle, he represented Mexico at the 2024 Summer Olympics and has won multiple international tournaments.[3]
In folkstyle, Bravo-Young was the 2021 and 2022 NCAA Division I National champion at 133 pounds and a four-time All-American for the Pennsylvania State University.[4][5][6]
Career
High school
Bravo-Young attended Sunnyside High School in Tucson, Arizona, where he was an undefeated four-time state champion with a 182–0 record.[7] Also a US U17 World Team member in freestyle, Bravo-Young committed to the Pennsylvania State University.[8]
Pennsylvania State University
2018–2019
Before the folkstyle season started, Bravo-Young placed second at the US U23 National championships in freestyle.[9]
As a true freshman at 133 pounds, he earned a Keystone Classic title and placed third at the Southern Scuffle.[10][11] After placing fifth at the Big Ten Championships, Bravo-Young became an All-American with an eighth-place finish at the NCAA National Championships, closing out the year with a 25–7 record.[12][13]
Bravo-Young then placed second at the U20 US Open and grabbed a gold medal from the U20 Pan American Championships in freestyle.[14][15]
2019–2020
As a sophomore, Bravo-Young won the Black Knight Invitational and Wilkes Open and only lost one match during regular season, to top-ranked Seth Gross.[16][17] After improving to a second-place finish at the Big Ten Championships, the NCAA National Championships were canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, cutting his season short with a 20–2 record.[18][19]
2020–2021
During the pandemic, Bravo-Young competed in freestyle, taking out NCAA finalist Jack Mueller at FloWrestling: Dake vs. Chamizo, Shelton Mack at the NLWC II, and eventual UFC champion Aljamain Sterling at the NLWC IV.[20][21][22]
Going back to folkstyle, Bravo-Young had an undefeated regular season, and claimed his first Big Ten title with a win over rival Austin DeSanto from Iowa.[23] At the NCAA Championships, Bravo-Young became a national champion with a hard-fought win in sudden-victory over NCAA finalist Daton Fix from Oklahoma State, after an undefeated tournament.[24] He closed out the season with a 14–0 record and was named the Penn State Male Athlete of the Year.[25]
2021–2022
After another undefeated regular season, Bravo-Young claimed his second Big Ten title with another win over Austin DeSanto.[26] At the NCAA Championships, Bravo-Young became a two-time national champion with another win over Daton Fix, capping yet another perfect season with a 22–0 record.[27]
2022–2023
In his extra season, granted to athletes due to the 2020 season being cut short, Bravo-Young once again went undefeated during regular season and claimed his third Big Ten title.[28] At the NCAA Championships, he advanced to the finals, but was defeated by Vito Arujau from Cornell to claim runner-up honors, ending his season with a 20–1 record.[29] Bravo-Young graduated as a two-time NCAA national champion, four-time All-American, and three-time Big Ten champion, with an overall record of 100–10.[30]
In June, Bravo-Young competed in submission grappling against UFC veteran Alex Perez at the UFC Fight Pass Invitational 4, with the match ending in a draw.[31][32]
Mexico
2023
In July, Bravo-Young announced he would transfer and represent Mexico in freestyle, his grandparents' native country.[33] By the end of the month, Bravo-Young claimed the Mexican National Qualifier title, wearing the Mexican singlet for the first time.[34]
In December, Bravo-Young claimed the Mexico Grand Prix title down at 57 kilograms, defeating all three opponents by technical fall.[35]
2024
To start off January, Bravo-Young claimed a gold medal from the Grand Prix de France Henri Deglane, scoring wins over African champion Diamantino Iuna Fafé and US National Team member Daniel Deshazer.[36]
In March, Bravo-Young competed at the Pan American Olympic Qualification Tournament, in an attempt to qualify Mexico for the Summer Olympics.[37] After victories over Enrique Herrera and Pedro Mejías to make the semifinals, Bravo-Young was able to defeat Óscar Tigreros to become a 2024 Summer Olympian.[38]
In June, Bravo-Young competed at the Poland Open, where he grabbed wins over African champions Gamal Mohamed and Diamantino Iuna Fafé on his way to a championship.[39]
In August, Bravo-Young made his Olympic debut at the 2024 Summer Olympics, where after dropping his opening match to four-time European champion and two-time U23 World champion Arsen Harutyunyan from Armenia, he was eliminated from the tournament.[40]
Wrestling style
Bravo-Young is known for his fancy footwork, speed, and ability to explode from a relaxed and elusive stance into a takedown.[41][42][43] Defensively, he is known for employing explosive acrobatic flips to get out of dangerous situations.[44][45][46] Bravo-Young trains with former UFC champion Dominick Cruz from time to time, who has some of the most versatile footwork in mixed martial arts.[47][48]
