He was only 26 years old: British wrestler Kurtis Chapman is dead. Mad Kurt became famous for his unconventional style in the ring.
British wrestling star Kurtis Chapman, better known by his stage name Mad Kurt, is dead. Chapman was only 26 years old. Those responsible said they were “absolutely heartbroken” about this news. We witnessed how the athlete grew and developed from a child into a young man. He was one of the most technically gifted wrestlers and very charismatic. Mad Kurt had a “magnetic personality”. However, there was no comment on the cause of death.
Chapman began wrestling as a teenager and earned a reputation beyond England’s borders due to his unconventional and fresh style. After numerous triumphs, the professional athlete has not been in the ring since June 2023. At that time he successfully defended the Resurgence Arthouse title in Leicester, England.
Mad Kurt made up for his stature with technique
Mad Kurt was also known for his unusual stature as a wrestler. The athlete, who was only 1.63 meters tall, weighed only 60 kilograms and therefore always visually entered the ring as an obviously inferior fighter. However, he overcame this physical disadvantage through cunning and technique during fights and thus won the hearts of numerous wrestling fans around the world.
