Welcome to PAK MMA Blog
So this is a bit of an odd post for me. Writing it isn’t odd, actually the experience behind it is. Not so much odd as it is surreal. If you look at my old posts you will see that I spent A LOT of time at True Bee Gym in Pai Thailand. In fact I spent a total of 8 months there out of a one year span. Broken up my a 4 month…

So this post fits in really well with my other post about Rose Gym. Rose Gym as you may have read, is True Bee Gym which is now being run by a new owner and is now called Rose Gym. Well, Chai Yai Gym you can see is where True Bee Gym was sprung from and where the trainers from True Bee returned too when True Bee Gym was closed. Chai Yai Gym sits in…

It feels good to be writing about the same thing that actually was the mainstay of this blog from back in the day. For the ones that remember, this blog was mostly about my travels to Thailand and South East Asia, training in Muay Thai. Well, after almost two long long years, I am finally going back to spend the summer in the place that honed my skills. Right now my mind is ablaze with…

This will be my last post from Thailand for a while. After leaving the United States in May of last year, 16 months ago I am set to go to the United States tomorrow. I am in Chiang Mai now and tomorrow I fly to Bangkok from which I fly to London and then Washington DC. I saw my last live Muay Thai fight (authentic one at least, least for the next few months) and…

If you read some of the earlier posts, you’ll know that the blog isn’t 100% about Mixed Martial Arts in Pakistan but also about my training around the world and some of the experiences that come with it. Since we’ve gotten a much bigger following, I will soon update the website as to separate the two topics. Until then enjoy 🙂 Because I have been to Thailand for so long. I have a great deal…

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…

I had a very good night. I am waking a little sore on my shin, a slight belly ache and my elbow tweaking a bit but all in all I feel good. I had a good fight, I have gotten better and I can train tomorrow there is nothing more that I ask for. I arrived at the stadium feeling very confident. I was going to perform to the best of my abilities and I…
