It makes me very proud to be British looking at the results.

How great that British Muay Thai is up there with (and beating) the best in the world.

A massive well done to Dean "Black Diamond" James,I never thought you two would fight but I was always sure you would win if you did!
Dean for all who know him is genuinely one of the nicest guys in the sport and i do not think he even knows what an ego is nevermind having one....well done Mr Myers on a great plan for Dean....both long and short term.

Now here is something you don't often here on here......

I was wrong!

I think over the years i have had some issues with the bad co boys (personal not with them ) and I feel it came down to jealousy in the end.

i saw lads enjoying the sport so much and becoming big stars and I think i tried to play it of as "self promotion gone mad" and that they were "average fighters with big mouths big ego's and that they have had more chances than others"

I am sorry but it was my honest oppinion and it is horrible and i am ashamed of it.

i have recently become a Muslim and it has made me look at things a lot differently.

i must admit before i was jealous,I was bitter my career had been hampered so much by injury/illness etc and I held resentment to people who did not deserve it.....to the point of me leaving a gym i loved purely because i was jealous of the younger fitter fighters.

(wow what a terrible admition i am ashamed)

As I say i am a different person now and I am truly sorry for having those feelings towards the bad company guys and also to you Liam Robinson who I saw progressing as i was ill and injured and on the way down....lets face it!
