“No excuses” is tattooed on the back of Zion Clark, who was born with caudal regression syndrome, a rare condition that left him without legs. He also spent most of his youth in foster care. Living up to that mantra, Clark never let anything hold him back as he spent years competing in track and field and wrestling in high school and college.
Now 25-years-old, the former All-American wrestler sought a new challenge and competed in a professional MMA fight this past weekend.
“It’s the same as it was wrestling for me. I just wrestle against able-bodied people, and I beat able-bodied people,” Clark told TMZ Sports.
