This video is of my first full contact Kick Boxing fight back in October 2009. It was held at Kelham Hall in Newark (an amazing venue by the way) and was put on by Dean Sugden Promotions.
I enjoyed the fight (although very tiring!) and I think Kurt Paul (Cobra Gym) did too. Many thanks to all who came and supported us for this. Especially to Steve Primrose of Lions Pride who trained me and got me ready for this fight.
Ok, so it isnt yet, but it is a red letter day of sorts, this is my debut full contact kickboxing ring fight, which is being held in Newark!!!
I am so looking forward to it, with a little bit of nerves. Whichever way it goes, it will be an experiance, and then off to Dublin on 30th to compete in the WKC World Championships, I am looking forward to it so much!!!
I will be back over the next few days updating info...
Hope everybody is well and let me know if you want tickets (its about a 2hour drive from Essex and about the same from manchester)
So no excuses people!!!
Hello folks.... how is life in cyber land? Good I hope....
I have stepped up the training as I said I would, however this has not been without problems. My body hurts, and I am suffering migraine type headaches as well. I am keeping myself hydrated, but I am burning through the energy in my body fairly quickly.
Today I rode 7 miles on my bicycle, then did over an hours intensive training in the dojo, had some porridge for lunch, and have drunk a fair amount of water to rehydrate my body. Tonight I am training with Steve Primrose who has just defended his world title last weekend (Well done Steve), in the hope of banging, cajoling and smashing my body into the type of shape it should be for my first full contact fight at the end of august.
I want to drop 21lbs from this weeks weigh in and I plan to do that using The Diet Plate and intensive training. Hopefully within the next 4-5 weeks, this will enable me to have 10 days or so walking around at that weight before I fight...
