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.

Alexis Chevalier – The Future Khmer Formular 1

by khmerbird on December 30, 2008

alexis i am not sure if it was a dream or i really saw the photos somewhere but it seems to me i saw the Formular 1 racing cars in font of the Palace Royal, in Phnom Penh, Cambodia … maybe it was the time Alexis have visited the Prince i guess. i am not sure … i was looking for those photos :-)

yesterday i read the magazine L’Echo du Cambodge, it was Alexis on the front page, and i did spend sometime to find out who is this young ambition guy. he got a dream and his dream is to make them play Cambodian national hymn (if i understand well the French LOL or maybe he refer to Cambodia national anthem) when he become the champion of F1.

well, when a person really wants to do something, i believe he will success one day, so all my best luck to Alexis.

he started private essay in Toulouse, a small town in France, where i also spent one year there. he went to France because the Kambol F1 is too small for him, he need to practice in international circuit such as the circuit at Muret in Toulouse where he can drive up to 200km/h. wow impressive ! he will go to France to join France International championship and take 5 courses in season 2009/2010. he is just 13 year olds, you can find more details about him at his personal blogspot, it was written in French but we can view his photos and find more about his background.

Image Source exposay.com

well i lost a bottle of Whisky last night,
there’s always something unexpected with the France teams,
Franck Ribery is injured, few minutes later Eric Abidal is out, penalty one score,

the rest was painful to watch… Henry cannot save the world,

anyway i am the France support teams, since always,
because i got a long history of football match while watching them,
they were the strong teams,

i hope they will organize the team and training for a new match at next word cup 2010?
