Just a funny thing I noticed at the gym the other day:
Members can sign-up for private training sessions with some of the guys at UF (Master Thong, Dustin, Tito…) Well, I was watching MT "train" a guy the other day and it was hilarious!! The guy cracks me up! Let’s just say the “training” consisted of Master Thong kicking the crap out of the guy. Don’t get me wrong, MT was teaching him, but here let me see if I can describe the scene well enough to paint a good picture.
The student and Master Thong were in the ring in the middle of the gym – the student had gloves and chin guards – Master Thong was wearing gloves and a padded vest to protect his upper-body. Well the “training” began with MT working on the guy’s footwork – he was showing him how to get more power behind his kicks. After showing him the technique the 2 of them started sparring with nothing but kicks to the body – back and forth they went. MT quickly started picking up the intensity – kicking harder and harder and yelling at the student to do the same. The ironic part was - remember MT, one of the hardest kickers I’ve ever seen, was wearing full upper-body protection so the kicks were just bouncing right off him while the student was just getting tattooed in his body (no protection). MT started giving him a hard time because the kicks were obviously not feeling too good – it was hilarious. The student probably did the right thing by not yelling out “YOU ARE WEARING PADS I’M NOT” because who knows what MT would have done, but I’m sure the thought crossed him mind.
Every time I see MT give a private “training” session it turns into MT kicking the crap out of the guy – so funny – the guys always walk out of the ring like they’ve just gone through a 5 round war
