Rick catches up with former pro boxer, Tony Jeffries this week.

As an amateur, he won the light-heavyweight bronze medal at the 2008 Olympics. In 2012, Jeffries was forced to retire due to hand injuries. He has since become a YouTuber who began posting boxing tutorials in 2007; he has amassed millions of followers.

He began to box at the age of ten, inspired by his uncle William Young “Billy” Bryce, a former professional boxer. He joined Sunderland Amateur Boxing Club, and in 1999 won the School Boys’ Championships, gold in the European Cadets (U17) in 2001 and won the juniors of the 2003 YMCA International Cup in New Delhi. He was also a semifinalist in the 2003 Junior Brandenburg Cup and 2003 European Junior Championships in Warsaw.

In addition to his success on social media platforms, Tony now owns and works at Box ‘N Burn boxing gym in Santa Monica, Los Angeles, with Kentucky fitness expert Kevan Watson.\
