Congratulations Jamie

Some of you will be aware Jamie has been working on his head punching skills with the idea he would have his first kickboxing fight soon.  Turns out it was sooner than expected as he got roped in at the last minute when he went to Palmy on the weekend to support one of his kickboxing team mates at his first fight.

Jamie fought a lighter fighter who had between 2 and 4 previous kickboxing fights depending who you talk to.  Jamie had seen him fight & knew he liked to move and be stylie so he took a “boring” approach working his jab and leg attack.  Not having the hand skills yet to get his right away without getting popped he stuck to the basics until his opponent started stepping back on the leg attack.  He took the opportunity to fake the leg and drop a couple of clean mawashi’s into the guy’s ribs.  Been there… pretty sure it hurt!  Jamie took the fight by decision.  Awesome work!   Why anyone would volunteer for a black eye and a week of mouth breathing I do not understand but since he did – YAY, love it!
