The late Tyler Robbins, a remarkable young martial artist and wrestler from Casa Grande, Arizona, tragically passed away on Saturday, June 8th, in a motorcycle accident. Tyler, known for his dedication and skill in multiple martial arts disciplines, left a profound impact on his community and everyone who knew him.
Tyler was deeply involved in high school wrestling and various martial arts, holding black belts and numerous accolades in Taekwondo, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Chinese Kenpo, and Catch Wrestling. He competed in Karate, Kickboxing, and was a two-time state champion in wrestling.
