Welcome to PAK MMA Blog
Well I finally have an internet connection I can hook up to my laptop. I’ve been back for about 4 days now and the town is quite different in the summer time. It’s usually a small quiet town but it seems deserted now. Everyone and anyone who has time and money for a vacation is getting out of here. What that means for me is that I am now left with only a couple students…

I arrived in Pakistan last night. I will be in Lahore for the next two days before heading out to my hometown near Faislabad. It’s hotter here than I am used to being in Pakistan but its not that bad really. The bad part of the heat is that the power is out up to 18 hours a day in some places, making getting away from the heat to even a basic fan impossible. I…

If there any gyms in Lahore or Faisalabad that would be interested in holding a seminar or any individuals who wish to do FREE private lessons please contact me and we can hopefully arrange something.

I’m extremely happy with the progress that has been made since I launched the site. I have created a central online area where people can link with myself and in turn each other, Pakistani’s interested in Mixed Martial Arts can now stay informed about what is going on and I am getting regular emails from Pakistani’s living in Pakistan, America and the U.K. These emails are always very enthusiastic and the sender always wants to…

I first saw Paddy’s Gym on the show “Human Weapon” on the history channel. I then became interested in coming over to Cambodia and training in the Cambodian style of kickboxing known as Pradal Serey and sometimes called Bokator, although from what I understand Bokator is the ancient style, similar to Muay Boran or ancient Muay Thai as can be seen in Ong Bak. Since I would be coming to Thailand I figured I would…

I stayed three days at Kaewsamrit. In the end this is how I could sum up my time. I got a chance to train around some of the best Thai fighters, with some very motivated farang students in a camp where I was made sure to stay busy and try to stay at a hard pace the entire time. Being around good fighters is a big bonus because you get to see the best of…

Unfortunately as I was editing this post the first few paragraphs got deleted. A reminder to never use a public computer for this blog again. Heres a summary of what I wrote. I arrived at Kaewsamrit at 12 am and got shown to my room. I was staying in a basic room with fridge, dresser and fan three houses down from the gym. Kaewsamrit is located in a quiet neighborhood slightly outside of Bangkok but…

After the fights at Wat Chan two weeks ago I have been training very regularly and at a good pace. I was getting bored of the day in day out routine of training, eating and sleeping. Luckily, I have to go on a visa run and I have decided to spend a week in Cambodia. I will go check out Angkor Wat for two days and spend the rest of my time training at Paddy…

After my fight I took it a bit easy for the week. I didn’t train for 2 days and then for the three days left in the week I would only train once a day. I started getting back into training the week after (one week ago) and I ended the week very well. I can tell that over the next few weeks before my next fight I will improve even more. I’m excited, I…
