Even though he had not participated in a professional fight for more than three years, the wrestler chose a ‘last man standing’ fight to mark his return.
He had signed the death contract that clearly stated no owning up by organizers if either of the two fighters are fatally hurt in the process.
Sangram is said to be the first wrestler to sign such an agreement.
The wrestler also thanked his fans through Twitter for their wishes.
Thanks all my friends for your #Wishes & #Support. Fight Video you all can watch soon. #JaiHind
