Has anyone heard what is happening at Fairtex?? I was told that Alex Gong is no longer with them, and that phillp wong's son is now in charge?

If anyone has the correct info please let me know.

Thanks

I don't know how many son's he has, but the story I got was he retired and gave the camp to his son.

The son told Alex Gong that he wanted 35% or something like that, and that is the reason Alex left. If you noticed the seminar and fight cruise that was suppose to take place were canceled.

I don't know if any of this is true, that's why I asked the question.

Yeah, I know what happened. However, this is an internal personnel matter for Fairtex and not suitable for discussion in a public internet forum.

The day-to-day teaching activities of Fairtex in San Francisco aren't going to be effected. It remains an excellent place to train and a bunch of great people. I would refer you to Fairtex's U.S. headquarters in San Francisco www.fairtex.com for more information. However, I would also warn you that it is not in your interest to stir up trouble amongst a group of very tough fighters.

Terry,

Number 1- I am by no means trying to stur up Anything. The fact of the matter is I have lived at Fairtex from the beginning when they were in AZ, and my roomate at that time was Alex Gong!!!!

I was simply just trying to find out what happened and if anyone knew what was gonna happen to the camp.

I was planning to go back their and then I found this out the other day. Those are my intenstions and nothing else!!!!!

Number 2- Yes they are tuff fighters and I have trained and gotten in the ring with each and every one of them Personally!!! So I know that for a fact.
