Yesterday I got my hands on some more video footage of the Shinergy[battle] autumn cup '11. Below you can see Gabriel and Andy, two of my students. Both performed pretty well. Gabriel fought under Point/Stop rules. That's pretty much our equivalent to "Semi-Contact" Kickboxing. The main difference is that, although the fight is interrupted after … Shinergy[battle] autumn cup ’11, more video footage weiterlesen

But first things first.From an organisational point of view, things were pretty fubar, both on the promoters side as well as on mine.

Fight Prep: T -1 day
So tomorrow's the day. I'm not particularly anxious, which I guess is a good sign.As I'm writing those lines, I'm having my last meal before the fight. Today's choice is Dr. John's (delicious) chili, as it's pretty low-carb and the hot spices will most likely help me shed another pound or so. In case you … Fight Prep: T -1 day weiterlesen

Below you'll find a video of the session.Tomorrow, I'll tell you of my last session before the fight.So long,take care
Fight Prep: T -3 days
