Pink Mission #5 New Years Eve 31st Dec 2011

Had another 121 in Muay Thai at 12.30 today with a Trainer called Bill. It was hot and hard work. No footage im afraid as was there on my own. I did come across an awesome female boxer and BJJ coach who were just over for a few days chilling. They were training each other in the open mat area. In the evening we decided to just chill and have a nice meal in our local resturant Mamas http://www.forest-bungalows.com/ then come back and sit by the pool to watch the fireworks. Again i have more photos but on my other camera and no lead ;(

Happy New Year Everyone xxxxx

Pink Mission #5 Friday 30th Dec 2011

Boxing we had fun we had to throw gloves at each other and make sure we didn't get hit in the body or we were tagged. Lol we also used foam stick sponges to slip left and right by whacking each other on the shoulders ... its pretty quiet as people chilling ready for new years!

Pink Mission #5 24th December 2011

Xmas Eve - Today I had my 1st 121 with a Trainer at Tiger Muay Thai ... His name is Aon he was a world champion boxer as well as a Muay Thai Fighter. Here is some footage of me training with him.

Xmas Eve pm we all gathered at TMT camp for the BBQ beatdown 44 fight show. Tickets were 500baht on the night and included food as well as free drinks. The Thai fights were really good although they were putting trainers against trainers, The ladys Thai fight was the best http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qwz8Nqwq16o  there was also one boxing match where the lad had only trained for a week in body fit and a couple of boxing sessions he went against his own trainer and was knocked out in the first minute... Don't think he will bother paying for 121's with him again and this to me was a bit poor of Tiger to put on such a mismatch! There were a couple of MMA fights in the cage with some guys who'd only been training a few months. First one went all three rounds and the 2nd one was KO in round 2.

Here's some photos and footage from the night where i met up with some new friends too :0) .... Damn cant get from other camera so gonna have to wait for this one!

Pink Mission #5 Friday 23rd Dec 2011

Today I joined the boxing class at Phuket top team as there coach silviu has a good reputation he is Russian and after watching some if his classes realised he is so technical that this is where I was going to learn properly .... Here's some info http://www.phukettopteam.com/silviu-dorian-vulc/

After this hard class I then trained in BJJ again, I felt a bit sick as I warmed down and then did another warm up ... Not good ;0) again the BJJ class was awesome with Silvio. He was leaving for 1 week to go home to his wife and 2 cats in Hong kong and returning 2nd Jan.

Pink Mission #5 Thursday 22nd Dec

8am MuayThai class worked on Clinching again ... This was every Tuesday and Thursday am. Today in the 3 rounds of clinching sparring I was put with all the heavy weight ladies ... I would say the lightest was about 75kg and the two others were much bigger lol. To begin with they were difficult to handle butafter about 30 Secs they get puffed out so it was easy for me to get my little arms in and bring on the knees, plus I liked using my technique from Justin pull them down step back and round - followed with a knee instead of a kick. :0)

Pink Mission #5 Tuesday 20th December 2011

8am Muay Thai class again until 10.30pm ate food slept and rested before trying out the MMA class at 4pm which on Tuesdays and Thursdays was Wrestling.  The MMA girl Tania was there so we worked together ... She had a lot of wrestling experience and was really good at shooting for single leg takedowns. Enjoy wrestling with her but i know she was only toying with me :) Tania won 1st place at Grapplers Quest ... We are quite alike both live training and overtrain - she will do well in an MMA fight. To which end the coach asked if we would fight in the cage for BBQ beatdown on this coming Saturday. Unlucky for Tania she had a knee injury... Lucky for me lol. If it was my last week here I would have gone for it but I wanted to stat injury proof for my next 6 weeks.
