? ??????? ??????? ?? ??? ???? ???? ‘????????’ ????I first met Alan Pond in 2017 in #BMAEX#ISKA Championship in #Labuan. After interviewing him, I really felt inspired by this wily old man ( actually he’s only 2 years older than me ), but Alan will always say he is 27!

The challenges he goes through to win his ➊?? ?????-???? belt,… hospitalized for food poisoning day before his weigh-in, anxiety from his loss of luggage from the flight and mental stress from his pending court case for his marital issues,… but Alan fought through it all & won his belt beating a much younger opponent.Again in 2018, he was back in Labuan & took home another ISKA Cʜᴀᴍᴘɪᴏɴsʜɪᴘ belt. Ever the entertainer and gives out positive vibes. he made sure he put on a good show for the fans.Back home in Australia, he builds up the local communities by imparting good martial arts values & his knowledge of techniques to local kids. He is also very supportive of other promotions & travels around to help in events to ensure the combat sports industry grows.Although I knew him only a short few years, but his spirit gave me a lasting impression. It’s so heart – breaking to know that he has pass on.
