boy its been awhile eh!!

well just like my title says...it's been awhile and a lot has happened. i would have reported it sooner but stupid me forgot my password! thank god i never throw anything away and i found it just today.

so, okay here we go...

on december 23 i fought in japan again this time in osaka on a much smaller shootboxing card but no less exciting. my opponent was the new 154 lbs champ kokuchi kokichi(spelling) the fight went the distance which surprised us as i didn't think i would be able to last past three as i had to cut 28 lbs!!! i was more tired the last time i was in Tokyo. needless to say i lacked the usual pop in my punches but felt in my heart and most that have seen the fight since felt i should have won, but hey if you don't knock them out in their home country you always take the chance when it goes to the judges. my hat goes off to the shootboxing organization as they again treated me with the up most respect. shootboxing #1!!!!!

congrats to my brother kevin who has just won the brampton cup in amateur boxing and has moved himself to 10-0 now. way to go little brother!!! he fights again this weekend in hamilton at the hamilton place theater. i will be in toronto as one of my fighters adam hensen makes his thai boxing debut at the royal thai ambassadors cup. this is the second year in a row i am taking a fighter from my gym to compete in this event.

finally if you have time check out my gym's website www.phoenixfightclub.com

more to come.....

love, respect and believe
