"This award was one of the hardest awards to pick a winner for as it came down to Apollo and Savage with Jack Tasman a close 3rd. I trained with both Apollo and Savage in beginners class at AWF, and it's great to see them both on shows and improving in all areas. Apollo has had such a standout first year, already coming in looking the part and in great shape. He had solid performances with Dean Draven, Samoan Warrior, Massive Q, Big Huss, Jack Tasman, Rainbow Savage among others. - Marek
