Dhani Jones at practice Pradal Serey
Dhani Jones is an American football Linebacker for the Cincinnati Bengals of the National Football League. Jones is currently filming Dhani Tackles the Globe, a series for the
Travel Channel in which he learns how to play international sports that are unknown to most Americans.
Dhani Jones is going back into the ring this week to take on the ancient martial art of Pradal Serey (Khmer boxing) in Cambodia. In a small, dark gym with a trainer who pushes him to the limits, Dhani trains for his first Pradal Serey fight.
Fried tarantulas, contortionists, snake feeding and a visit to Angkor Wat all make Dhani’s adventure to Phnom Penh, Cambodia, an unusual and unexpected experience.
Tune into the Travel Channel on Monday night 04 May 2009 at 9 PM E/P for the episode premiere; check out the behind-the-scenes photos from this episode.
