Congratulations to Chloe Nunn on her 🥈at the Paris Kurash Tournament yesterday beating opponents from AUS🇦🇺 and GER🇩🇪 on her way to the final !

A long hot day, fighting outdoors, where she had to draw on her experience, taping like a pro and carrying enough fluids and snacks for over 10 hours! after leading the final Chloe lost to her FRA 🇫🇷 opponent in the final exchange of the fight.

A great days scrapping 💪💚
