First I heard about Alex was in Black belt magazine. From another country looking into America he was the most famous Muay Thai fighter in America and the man I wanted to fight to make my name there.

Last year I went on a road trip with Angela and a few people from Master Toddys for a smoker tournament held at the Fairtex gym in San Francisco. I got to meet Alex and he seemed like a nice guy. In between fights he got up on the ring and tried to explain to the crowd how to cheer for you favorite fighter as they land a shot just like in Thailand. You could see in his eyes just how much he loved the sport and he wanted other people to enjoy it as much as he did.

Not only was he a world champion but he did what only a hand few of Westerners could ever dream of. Not only did he have the most famous gym in the country but he also had some of the best Thai's in Thailand working along side him. He carried the Fairtex name with pride and did what ever he could to promote it.

Even though I never knew Alex and only got to meet him the once I do understand in what he believed in. He lived for his gym and to promote the sport of Muay Thai. This is a very sad day for the sport and America has had a great loss.

RIP Alex Gong
ISKA Jr Middle Weight World Champion
