Maurice rojo was one of the nicest guys. Like many comments listed we had our conversations about life, getting together one day to have a match. But most of all I think as reading the comments he was a friend. Not too many like that anymore; sure tough for a match yet would give u his shirt if you needed it. Rip big guy
Oh no! I had several conversations with him on this site. We talked and chatted. Talked about having a match. I’m so sorry to hear this of his passing. Had no idea he had passed
I saw his name on here at times and said hey as you do but to here this man has lost his life way to soon is so shocking. My condolences to all his family and friends and the wider Meetfighters community.
This should make people take every opportunity to wrestle or box ,as its our thing so stop putting off that message you want to send and challenge.
I chatted on here with him a lot for a couple of years.
He and I met twice to wrestle and spend a good time in my hotel room as best buds when I travelled to Charlotte NC for work. He was a super nice, fun, cool, great enjoyable guy. We had plans to meet again.
I knew that he had heart issues. We were making plans to meet again for the third time, so to me this is a big loss as a good wrestling friend.
I messaged with Rojo often, expected to lockup with him at some point, maybe when he attended a Steelers game here in PA, although I am across the state from Pittsburgh. What a great guy....I am still shocked by the news of his passing. Way too soon. I will miss his hellos to me and to many of you on main chat. Still in disbelief here.....God Bless You, Rojo.
Maurice and I chatted on here often even cammed a couple times. We always talked about trying to meet up and wrestle and were working on plans for 2024. Such a nice guy and gone way too soon. May he RIP.
I had many conversations with Maurice about many thing over the time we chatted. He was definitely one of the good ones. I'm really sad to learn of his passing. Way too soon. I'll miss chatting with him
I am so sad to hear this news, me, and Rojo had several good chats about meeting up and having a good match. He was a wonderful and fantastic person and he will be greatly missed. May he rest in peace until we meet again.
Although I never had the opportunity to meet Rojo, we did have great chats online and he seemed one of the most genuine guys I ever had the honour to talk with.
Sad news - and may he Rest In Peace 🙏
I was very saddened to hear that Rojo1971 had passed away.
I first began to chat with him soon after I had lost my husband Harborfighter in 2021.
Rojo shared with the room from his hospital bed that he had had a narrow escape from cardiac arrest.
From then on, he was a kind of touchstone for me, reminding me that we can get up off the canvas and fight on.

Just heard the sad news about the passing of one of the members on here, Rojo1971, and thought it would be nice to make a more permanent memorial of sorts for him here.
I chatted on and off with Maurice for a while now. He and I hoped to meet one day. He looked like hell of a tough fighter. But more important, he was a nice, cool, chill guy to chat with. Not pretentious at all, and open about his life. He made me laugh at times when I needed it.
