If I can find a few words to describe Mong, I would say he is very passionate about what he does. He can express easily what’s on his mind in a simple and direct way especially when we’re talking about techniques. He’s always hungry for new ideas and like a sponge that can easily absorbed new things.I will not hesitate to recommend him to anyone who is serious about learning mixed martial arts.In my 35 years of experience as a fighter and a teacher I came into a conclusion that there are only very few good fighters and a teacher at the same time. A good fighter may not be a good teacher but, Mong is definitely one of the best teachers there is.Fred Garcia
