“Rocky” just needed all the practice he could get ahead of the big fight, even if that meant training at 40,000 feet in the exit row on a commercial airline flight.
“Rocky” Enjoys Shadow Boxing In Exit Row On Philippine Airlines
Video shows an energetic young man shadow boxing in the exit row of a commercial flight, as passengers indolently watch in muted amusement.
Based on the moving flight map and the color of the seat cushions, it appears this took place on a Philippine Airlines domestic flight.
I hope no unsuspecting passenger walking out of the nearby lavatory became one of his victims! Then again, you can be sure that no one is going to cut in front of him to use the lavatory.
Levity aside, this is poor form and people pay extra money for the extra space of an exit row seat. Even if one of the exit row seats was his own, by standing and boxing he invaded the space of other passengers.
And while some onboard incidents are clearly fake, I am not sure this one is. The boxer’s name is Vladimir Grand and he has his own TikTok channel. So sure, this could be simple “content creation” used to generate views (to the tune of 1.9 million), but he does appear to be a serious boxer.
CONCLUSION
It’s sad to see him be so shy and not wanting any attention, right?
While there are worse things onboard than shadow boxing in an exit row, this is one of the things I’d prefer to see in a gym instead of a plane…or lounge.

Appears to be a featherweight , self-identifying as a heavyweight .
what a queer
What a stupid and asinine thing to say.
I mean……let’s be honest this isn’t even in the top 10 worst things you can see on an airplane. Shoot this isn’t even as bad as a person putting their feet up on the bulkhead for all to see
Douche bag, applicator, and whole Summer’s Eve box.
Hopefully he only did a small demo, but I doubt anyone would pick a fight with him over it!
Perhaps he thought he was time traveling to the Thrilla in Manila.
It’s a common sight on the MNL-FIH flight. That’s why I prefer to connect in Doha.
Some people just thrive on the attention, yawn, yawn. Hence his TikTok and Instagram postings.
