As the story has it, one day I headed to the opposite side of the globe – the Flipside. I arrived in Korea February 16th, 2005 and thought I’d do a year, then leave. I was wrong. I stayed, launched my first company, Flipside Fitness, and then opened Korea's largest boxing club, Hulk's Boxing (now called Hulk's Club).

After 11.5yrs in Korea, I then picked up one day and returned to Toronto, Canada. But then I left again.

Now I live in the Philippines where I am the CEO and head coach of Empowered Clubhouse, the Philippines' first and only boxing clubhouse exclusively just for women. I also am the founder of the Lil' Sistas Project, CEO and designer of Slay Gear and Baa Baa Black Sheep .Ph.

Freaky Friday... Friday, April 29

Today I randomly checked my former email account that I used back when I taught at Dankook and low and behold I almost missed out on a very, VERY important email!



Hi Amy,


Hope all is well with you.


We have an IFBA world title fight coming up at the beginning of June (I believe the date is June 4) between Dan Bi Kim and a Chinese fighter, to take place in Korea. I would like to have you supervise this fight for the IFBA. This would entail being present at the weigh-in to verify both fighters making weight, and then sitting ringside with the KBC official scoring the fight, to record the actual judges' scores.


You would be paid a Supervisor's fee directly from the promoter which is determined in the sanctioning agreement for the fight.


I will be back in Korea for the May 1 Ji Hyun Park vs Krisztina Belinsky fight in Gunpo. It would be ideal for you to attend that fight and I could review all the fight supervisory details with you, and also introduce you to the KBC official you would be working with. I look forward to hearing back from you as soon as possible and look forward to having you work with us.

Best regards,

Judy Kulis
President
International Female Boxers Association

Of course I emailed her back, appologizing for not seeing her email earlier but also to tell her I'm so for working with the IFBA! I'm incredibly flattered that they'd consider me so now the plan is to head out to Gunpo this Sunday to see the live boxing bouts and learn what it means to supervise a fight -- wicked!!!

QUESTION OF THE DAY...
What's around the corner?
