So i get back from work around 20 minutes ago and I'm met with a message on my phone. It was about one of my Muay Thai coaches at the age of 56 he passed on at about 4:30 a.m. this morning. It's sad to see him go as he was probably one of the most energetic of the team. He was a father figure to us all at the camp. He will be sorely missed, nothing yet as to what caused his death but, cardiac arrest seems to be a main stay no foul play is suspected at this time. So my training will be pushed back about a week for Muay Thai at least. Hopefully we can pull it off with out him he was our glue that kept us together in hard times. But the show must go on it's what he would have wanted, i look to put my next fight in dedication to him for i owe a good chunk of who i am as a fighter to him. This comes to a shock to me and it's hitting me pretty hard, I apologize in advance if i miss any shows due to my work and training schedule as well as my grieving process.
Your Friend, Kodie Doutley

*Update*
Seiko Namada passed away due to cardiac arrest early this morning December 22nd 2009. He was found laying on his bathroom floor unresponsive EMT's tried to revive him but he was gone to long for them to save. The autopsy will be official some time next week. The death comes to a shock to all friends and family as to Seiko being a vibrant part of their lives. Unannounced to most friends Namada has had a history of hart problems and constant pain in his back from the years of abuse it took when Seiko was participating in professional wrestling for the better part of 2 decades as well as competing in various Muay Thai tournaments winning 6 championships from his run in the Muay Thai circuit. Again foul play is not suspected, but a potential incidental overdose of painkillers is suspected.
Thats all we really know at this point i thank you guys and girls....lol for understanding and hope to shake this and get back in the swing of things. But I'm not to sure when that will be as i mentioned before it's hit me fairly hard. But i can truly say the MWA has become like a family to me and thats really something. Thank you guys i can't say it enough.
