Growing up we’ve probably come across at least a few wrestling fans, among those fans was Ramesh Tamang from Sindhupalchowk. Tamang, a 38-year-old who stepped into ‘Ring Wrestling’ (RW) three years ago, says he was inspired by Brock Lesner and Stone Cold.
He was always fond of wrestling and within a short period of time, Tamang is one of the top five wrestlers in the country.
To his fans, he is known as ‘Chattan’ which means ‘rock’ in the Nepali language. Tamang says the reason he chose the name is that he needs to be as strong as a rock to be in the profession.
On the other hand, Tamang has also won the bronze medal at the South Asian Federation Games (SAF) in wushu.
He has been a wushu player and a coach for 23 years now. The nine times national champion also represented Tribhuwan Army Club in many national games and has also been the Wushu coach of TAC for years.
