In May 2017 he played the National Games in Biobío with 92 kilos of weight and achieved the three gold medals in his category.[2][3]

Despite his triumph, halfway through the year, a bad result at the Miami World Cup discouraged him and he stopped training until the month of January of the following year,[4] when he began his preparation for the 2018 South American Games in Cochabamba , Bolivia, where he won the bronze medal and shared a podium with the also Chilean Arley Méndez.[5]
