I couldn’t resist a trip to Thailand
On the other hand, I’ve been given a great opportunity to go out to Thailand and watch two fighters from my gym, Chloe Cooke and David Cooke. Both of them will be competing in the ONE Championship. Their father is my coach, Steve, and it will be a massive chance for the both of them to showcase who they are and what they are made of.
I will be away for a month and helping them prepare for their biggest fight to date. I can’t decline their invitation and it will be great for me to watch the promotions and see how it works.
This will be a great trip for me because I usually stay in Phuket every time I go to Thailand, but this time I’ll be going to a different part of the country, and I am really looking forward to it.
New gym new faces
The trip also means I will be going to a new gym, and I will get a chance to meet new people and make new connections. I will be staying in Bangkok for the fight show and going to one of the most famous stadiums called Lumpinee. After Chloe’s fight, we will go to Koh Samui to prepare for David’s in one of the best gyms in the world.
Watching isn’t easy
We will stay there until the last week of our trip, then we will go back to Bangkok, where David will have his fight. I am sure I will have an amazing time being around them and watching them prepare. It’s nice to watch for a change, though I bet my nerves will be all over the place.
I will never get bored with The Land Of Smiles!
