Summary
Part 4 with world champion Chad Collins — this one's all heart. Chad gets passionate about why every belt he's won (17-19 of them and counting) lives at his gym instead of collecting dust at home. He breaks down the kid-walking-into-Urban-Fight-Gym moment as a young Tucker, seeing Nathan Corbett's WMC world titles on the wall, and realising that's the dream — and how he's now paying it forward for the next generation of Aussie weapons coming through. Plus a proper breakdown of Muay Thai's global rankings (Thailand 60%, England second, Australia a fast-rising third), why he reckons it's a poor man's sport that deserves more shine, and a healthy rant about why MMA is shit when they're wrestling on the ground. Knuckles agrees — get the fuck up and punch on. ⚠️ Explicit content. 📞 Get involved🎤 Send a voice message to the boys.
