Career

In spring 2017, during his second appearance at the European championships, in the Hungarian city of Szombathely, he came within a whisker of the bronze medal. At the Juniors World Wrestling Championships in the same year in Bydgoszcz he sensationally won it.[2] He was second in the German Championships in 2019 and won the "Thor Masters" tournament in Nykøbing Falster in 2020 which earned him the nomination for the 2020 European Wrestling Championships in Rome.[3] There he made a dream come true in winning his first medal at an international senior's championships.[4] Krahmer competed at the 2024 European Wrestling Olympic Qualification Tournament where he earned a quota place for Germany at the 2024 Summer Olympics in men's 130kg Greco-Roman wrestling.
