We should get together for a CEO field trip to come and support you.

Most likely in Malta in March i think, i could maybe get in talks with them about having it over in Cambodia

That would be cool in Cambodia. Not many traditional boxing matches here.

Boys weekend in Malta does sound good though.

question for you and I i am serious

why would anyone do something that results in getting the shit beat out of you?
i have tried all my life to avoid just that.

The training part i get but fighting for.......???

i'm not sure tbh, its definitely not the money as its shit unless youre a journey man fighting every week or a top 10 ranked boxer (with a top organisation)
ive spent 22 years of my 28 year life competing in Martial arts of some form or other, fighting in the national karate championships before the age of 10 and always coming home with medals
with boxing, the trainings the hard part, slaving away in the gym pushing your body and mind to the limits, the hundreds of rounds of sparring leading up to the fights, going out running every night, dieting to make weight, the actual fights are fun, the build ups horrible, but the buzz of adrenaline when youre in there and the feeling of euphoria afterwards is amazing, to put it into perspective i went skydiving 6weeks ago, the buzz didnt even come close, the fights make training worth while, all that slaving away and the feeling of relief afterwards, me now i rarely train unless ive got a fight coming up, other wise if feels pointless and boring, (but thats because when i was the No.1 ranked fighter in kickboxing and i used to train 6 nights a week all the time, ive been boxing/kickboxing for 11 years now so its hard without that motivation)
its the sense of pride and achievement, its a really tough sport (as they say, you cant play boxing) so to be able to achieve something in it is a great feeling, like when i fought in Malta last week, i get flown over there, free hotel, get escorted around everywhere, fighting in a great arena in front of thousands of people, its great, you feel like youve "made it"

regards to getting hit/beat up, i dunno, tbh i kind of find it therapeutic, boxing, whether its beating up a punchbag or being hit in the face sparring, it feels good, it relieves stress, its a good way to channel any anger or tension, being in control of your body, dealing with fear, clearing the mind, if im honest, when i left school (i was a smart kid, passed all my grades) i started to get into the wrong crowds, turned into a thug, <---this was my life for a couple of years, id also started boxing around the same time, after nearly getting sent down i decided to turn my life around and started taking my kickboxing seriously, got away from it all and in the space of a couple of years was No.1 in the UK, from where i was then to where i am now, i think thats why i also like it/take a lot of pride from it

We have Jamie Lambo, think this lad could go all the way, lost his last two fights to Craig Carter, who was more experienced and heavier (also another great prospect). Lambo is an ex football hooligan, turned his life around, done his punishments and is a changed man. Really getting into kickboxing now, after just 4 fights, 3 wins and 1 draw was prepared to fly over to Italy for me and fight for a European title at 60kg. trains like a mad man and game to fight anyone!
He is 20 years old!

didnt really need to expose myself like that but im an honest guy, and tried to answer to your serious question seriously

for ur honesty


for adrenaline

1. I used to sky dive, got up to 15,000' and thats a good 50 seconds free fall
2. try crossing the Chinese /Nepal border with 15 kilos of gold on ya
3. having a gun pointed at ur head in Africa after the guy pointing it at u just killed someone else and than not pulling the trigger

but getting my face smashed in, I'll let u take the beatings

haha yeah the Skydive i did was 15,000feet, was 60seconds of freefall, was a good buzz, can imagine it being a completely bigger buzz if it wasnt a tandem, its only £1300 to do the course to get your license, after that you can jump solo and only costs £20 a jump, very tempting!

haha id love to hear this African story over a beer sometime, did that really happen?! crazy!

ill take one for the team mate dont worry!
