Back in Phuket!

It is so great to be back in Thailand and escaping a bit of New Zealand's winter. The boys have opened their own gym in Phuket, Bangtao Muay Thai & MMA. As its namesake would suggest, the gym's located in Bangtao. It's so cool to explore an entirely new neighbourhood and bring our daughter, Malee.
The gym is beautiful. Everything is pristine. And while here, I got offered a fight. As you may or may not have heard, I will be fighting with Carlos, Dan, and Israel on the New York card for UFC 281. What's also cool is that Zhang Weili is here, and she will be fighting for the Straw weight title on the same card as well. Also, included in this video are snippets of pad sessions I got to do with her pad holder, John.
So far Thailand is everything I remembered.
I'm also excited to share that I'll be launching a course soon. If you'd like to be amongst the first to know about it, sign up here:

I became a fan of Bangtao after seeing Zhang Weili's training videos there. Looks like a world class facility with world class coaching. Great to see vlogs like this to get to know more about the work you put in.

Awesome training and great content as well. I have seen Tai Tuivasa, Jiri, and Zhang Weili training there. Must be a great gym! Wishing you and Zhang Weili success at MSG.

Here's hoping to her getting brutally ko'd again.

[@alvinyakitori2327]

Fantastic video Mr. Riddell. Its great to see your vlog and training! I am a big fan of Ms. Zhang and that is how I found your channel, by looking for Bangtao videos. Great videos about technique as well. Best wishes to your preparation and training camp. I wish you good health and a great performance at UFC 281!

Hey, its Zhang Weili's pad holder John Yodpetch. She has some creative ways to set up her elbows from range. Did John show you some cool elbow setups?

Holy fyk g how long have you been training for? Exactly what age did you start training ? how many hours does it take to get from beginner to a become a good fighter? specifically in mauy thai these questions are, chur

Are you splitting up camp between Thailand and Auckland?

[@tekopuakanapanapa6824]

Hi Brad 🤙

[@rainlamina]

Hey, you were working with John Yodpetch, Weili's main padman! I heard about Bangtao at UFC 275 preview show with Weili. Is it worth a visit? I am just a beginner and a hobbyist so I dont if I'd fit in with such high level talent such as yourself and other UFC fighters there.

[@bradquakeriddell]

Absolutely. Although there are some professionals, there are plenty of hobbyists as well, and I find that in addition to training, there are so many activities to do in the area. Yesterday, I took my family to an awesome waterpark 5 minutes away.

[@rainlamina]

@@bradquakeriddell Sounds like an incredible training experience and location as well. Thanks Brad!

Brad, I’m quite a fan of you. I kinda wonder, since I have the ability to do so. I own a Small Business & I have been managing the social media content since forever. Do you mind if I help you edit & grow your KZbin Channel for free? I believe you can make better content & your current content is underappreciated. Reply me if you’re interested, cheers!
