With deep sadness, we mourn the loss of Ethan Lovei, who left us far too young, at only 19 years old.
Ethan was a talented young athlete who represented France with passion and dedication at numerous WAF European and World Championships, earning several podium finishes in the Junior category.
His smile, determination and love for armwrestling will remain in our hearts.
Our deepest condolences to his family, friends, teammates and the entire French armwrestling community.
Rest in peace, Ethan. You will be deeply missed. 🕊️
