Tony Jeffries: From reluctant child boxer on a Sunderland council estate to LA gym owner (via an Olympic medal)
Tony Jeffries never took boxing that seriously until he won an English schoolboys title. Soon he was captaining his country at amateur level and winning a bronze medal at the 2008 Olympic games. Unfortunately, hand injuries curtailed his pro career but he moved the US and set up a new business in boxing gyms.
Now he is expanding his empire, training boxing coaches and developing his own Box'N'Burn podcast in which discusses all aspect of self-improvement.
So many diverse names crop up in this podcast - Mickey Rourke, Gary Vaynerchuk, Roy Jones Jr, Ronda Rousey, Chris Hemsworth. But the key message running through it is the power of positivity.
