U.S. Muay Thai open- Spring Championships

“Desert Dogs & Championship Straps” The Arizona desert is no place for the weak. Five days of heat, blood, and full-rules Muay Thai—no shortcuts, no safety nets, just raw violence and the will to survive. We came with two fighters and left with two belts. Not luck. Not chance. Just hard hours, sacrifice, and the kind of hunger you can’t fake. But the story doesn’t stop there. A third warrior—a young assassin with the heart of a lion—stepped into the fire and walked out with gold of her own. She’s trained with us for years, grown with us, fought alongside us. She’s loyal to her team back home, but when she’s with us, ....

After action report-MDL scrimmage Stockton, California.

AFTER ACTION REPORT: MDL SCRIMMAGE — STOCKTON, CA The smell of sweat and Thai liniment hung heavy in the air — the unmistakable aroma of battle. Four rings, non-stop action.

Just hard rounds and harder lessons — exactly how it should be. American Top Team rolled in heavy — ....

10 things teammates don’t let teammates do in championship cultures

I saw this list, and it spoke to me in the kind of way a loaded gun speaks when it’s pressed against your temple—clear, immediate, and without room for interpretation. So here’s my version, straight, no chaser: 1. Cut corners. There’s no express lane to being a savage. Every shortcut you take is just another hole you’re digging for yourself, and sooner or later, you’ll fall in. 2. Whine and complain. No one cares. The world doesn’t hand out tissues and pats on the back. If you have energy to cry about it, you have energy to fix it. 3. Make excuses. Excuses are lies you tell yourself so you can sleep at night. But deep down, you ....

The fighter and the coach

The Fighter-Coach Bond: Sacrifice & Growth The relationship between a fighter & coach is built on sacrifice, trust, and a pursuit of excellence few outsiders understand. Time & Physical Toll: Endless hours in the gym. Early mornings, late nights. Fighters take damage, but so do coaches—holding pads, sparring, pushing through pain. Financial & Emotional Cost: Fighters keep ticket profits. Coaches pay their way, miss time with family, and bear the emotional highs & lows of every fight. The Fighter’s Duty: A fighter must be all in—physically, mentally, spiritually. Half-hearted effort wastes everyone’s time. ....

Never be a “was.”

Someday, You Will Be a “Was” I was strong. I was fast. I was disciplined. I was relentless. One day, everything that defines you now will be spoken about in the past tense. Your body will slow. Your abilities will fade. The things that once came effortlessly will take effort. And that’s exactly how it should be. Because it’s better to be a “was” than a “never was.” A “was” means you showed up. You tried. You pushed yourself beyond comfort, tested your limits, and took risks. It means you built something—memories, skills, relationships, and a life worth looking back on. A “never ....
