Ben Askren, who underwent a double lung transplant that saved his life this summer is back in training just a few months later.
While it’s unlikely that Askren will ever compete in wrestling again, he is one of the sport’s most recognizable names. RUDIS sent him new training shoes, which encouraged him to go out and practice.
It’s the first time Askren has been seen grappling – except for a video last month where he showed off some technique with a female family member. Experts predict that Askren may make a comeback in wrestling.
