Former
Senegalese wrestling champion, Yahya Diop ‘Yekini’ on Monday announced his
retirement from wrestling after a-24-year career.
He
has 22 combats in which he won nineteen, drew one and lost two. Yekini, who is
42 years old, was defeated by Balla Gaye 2 and Lack De Guier 2.
He
said before reaching to a final decision he informed his relatives and friends.
“It
is not because of my two previous defeats that I retired. Everything has an
end. In sports you cannot always win.
You
must be defeated one day. I thank all my supporters and the media and pray that
a Serer became the new wrestling champion.”
