About Austin
Austin was proudly born and raised in Louisville, KY where he was a high school wrestler and football player. He continued his athletics playing defense for two years at The College of Mt. St. Joseph in Cincinnati, OH. Austin then finished his final three years at Eastern Kentucky University as their starting center.
After graduation, Austin had one amateur MMA fight where he had the KO win in 12 seconds. Austin decided that wasn't for him and from there on out, he was committed to all things arm wrestling. He credits the documentary Pulling John and the show Game of Arms as his first inspiration and vowed to compete in the same arena as those amazing pullers.....so far, so good.
Austin is a two-time Arnold Classic Super Heavyweight right hand winner: 2026 and 2022.
