On today's episode we're connecting a cold wintery night in Jersey with a 'might as well be summer' afternoon in Florida, with today's guest, Jason Strout.

Jason is a master of his craft and his craft happens to be hurting someone with your hands, elbows, knees and feet. He used to be a professional fighter and then transitioned into coaching other fighters. Since 2003 he's been building up his brand as one of the most sought after talents in combat sports and has lent his abilities to multiple world champions across different disclipines.

In our chat he talks about the transition he recently underwent from New York to Florida, his time living in Thailand, his decision to step away from competition and ultimately what makes him have such a passion for teaching and mentoring in such a cruel and unforgiving sport.

You can follow Jason and his fighters on IG @coachstrout. 

He also has a fantastic YouTube channel where he posts old school boxing matches, which you can find by searching 'Coach Strout's classic fights'.
