Amongst the fighters in Thailand.

What is so special about Thailand, when it comes to fighting training?
As I have mentioned before,I do truly believe that it is not where and how much you are training makes you better athlete or fighter.
It is more about; the way you do it.
However,staying and training for over a week at Singpatong Gym in Phuket,Thailand.
I have had great pleasure of meeting and training with many fighters from all over the world.
Some of them,just like me,coming here for a month or two,to develop their skills and go back home to fallow up with what they have learnt.
Some of them, quite few,stays  here for years and train full time.
Living everything behind and devoting their lives to Muaythai.
Even though back in UK it is my bread and butter too.
Everydays training, fighting, coaching.
I don't think there is other place in the world, where it is so common.
We cannot forget the Thai fighters who started all this culture and continue it on the highest level.
Young boys and girls whom begin their day with a long run and Thaiboxing practice.
When finished they will have a quick wash and breakfast, put on the uniform and leave for school.
After school they will come back straight to the gym for afternoon session.
It is a lot of hard work for young people,but they are proud of being fighters and they believe that this is going to help them build up their future.
Everybody here takes it very serious,at this same time we all having great fun while we are training.
Everyone has a dream of becoming someone. Whoever they wanna become,  Muay Thai is the way.
