Sean Climaco shares his biggest takeaway from his defeat at the hands of Johan Estupinan
Speaking of his latest defeat, the Smash Fighter and Woodenman Muay Thai representative has shared the most important lesson he got from that fight that he will carry throughout his career.
According to Sean Climaco, he should always take his time and stick to his fight plan instead of making the fight exciting for fans to watch:
"What I learned was I don't have to go into a firefight like that. I mean, I'm still gonna try to make the fight exciting, but if you're ever rocked or hurt, then you should try to slow things down, learn how to calm down, and take your time to recover."
