It appears that Yekini, considered the best wrestler in the fifty-year period from 1960 to 2010, has made a return to the Bassoul arena after suffering his first defeat in 15 years on April 22, 2013. The news suggests that he was warmly welcomed by a large crowd of people.
The mention of Yekini being greeted by a human crowd raises the question of whether this reception could influence his decision to return to the wrestling arena. The reaction and support from fans can sometimes play a significant role in the decisions of athletes, and it remains to be seen if this could convince Yekini to make a comeback to the sport.
