Former Michigan Wolverines Wrestling Star Stevan Micic Reveals Moment of Pure Joy That Surpasses His World Championship Victory

Michigan Wolverines wrestling superstar Stevan Micic has been on a social media role for quite some time. The world wrestling champ is a free soul who often showcases the things he loves and is interested in via his online posts. While his fans already know that Micic is a big sneakerhead, a new post has shown that he is also interested in another big subculture.

When Stevan Micic won the gold medal at the 2023 Belgrade event, the 57kg wrestler was rather mellow in his celebrations. While many took the Michigan Wolverines wrestler as a serious type of man, his latest social media post says something else. In fact, his new post saw Micic jumping in a full-blown celebration after winning an anime goodie.

When Stevan Micic found a grand line treasure

Stevan Micic added a new reel to his Instagram account with the caption, “The One Piece is real.” The reel also carried an in-video caption that said, “Celebration after becoming a World Champ vs… Celebration after winning One Piece figure from Japanese arcade.” The footage clearly displayed the stark difference in the Michigan Wolverines star’s mood.

The video showed Stevan Micic winning a figurine of a character from one of the world’s most-watched and beloved anime, One Piece. The figurine won by the wrestler was that of Boa Hancock, a big fan favorite from the anime. While grappling for the gold medal didn’t make Micic jump, clawing his One Piece prize definitely did.

With this video, the Michigan Wolverines star joins the doyen of 6x World Champ Noah Lyles, 2x UFC Champ Israel Adesanya, and many more. While the reel showed the 27-year-old enjoying his time, he is also preparing himself for the Olympic grind. Interestingly, he even returned to two reliable partners to gear up for Paris.

Coming back to the Michigan Wolverines gym

Stevan Micic is currently in the US right now and training for the Paris Olympics, which will commence in another 175 days. He has returned to his trusty Michigan Wolverines Coach Sean Bormet and is working on himself at the gymnasium of the University of Michigan.

Stevan Micic also visited UFC Champ ‘Suga’ Sean O’Malley for a friendly bout as both fighting title holders trained and had fun. But he will soon face a giant challenge at the Olympics, as he will be competing at 57kg, which is considered the most challenging wrestling weight class. While the Michigan Wolverines star found his One Piece treasure in the arcade, will he be able to become an Olympic Champion in Paris as well?
