They "want it"... and it shows in everything they do, every kick, every punch, every training session etc.

This guy went to Thailand and won many titles on their home turf at their own national sport. The King of Thailand even gave him an award for his achievements. Watch this video... and think about this question "am i like this in business",.... "when i get knocked down... what do i do"... "how do i respond" ... "do i stand up, ready to fight again with the same determination or more and an even stronger will to win"

Not saying its easy or that i often do. I am just saying that its necessary and important to think about.
Dekkers was a great fighter. People liked him. But he was a hopeless alcoholic, too. That's why he died aged 43. Self-destruction!
