In loving memory

Ethan Lovei

2007 2026

Armwrestler France

Some athletes only need a few moments on stage to leave a legacy behind that will live forever.

We had the honour and privilege of getting to know Ethan and sharing two unforgettable events with him. Though our time together was far too short, the memories he gave us will stay in our hearts forever.

He walked onto the stage with a smile that could light up the room, pulled with all his heart, and walked away with the love, respect, and cheers of an entire hall behind him.

Ethan was more than just an athlete on our stage. He became part of our family, part of our story, and forever part of the Lion Pride.

This is more than a story of strength. This is a story of heart, courage, and a young man who left a lasting mark on everyone who had the privilege of knowing him.

This is the story of Ethan Lovei.

Quiet strength

Calm and humble, with a fire inside that everyone around him could feel.

Five rounds. He left everything he had that night on the table.
