Sport is where talent, discipline and mental strength are tested in public. This is London Real’s hub for those conversations. Brian Rose has sat down with world champion boxers, Grand Slam winners, Olympians, strongmen, ultrarunners and fight-game legends to ask how they got to the top, what it cost them and what they learned on the way down. It covers boxing, MMA, strength, endurance and the hard truths behind elite sport. Every full interview is free to watch.
From six-time Grand Slam champion Boris Becker and world champion boxers Chris Eubank and Roy Jones Jr to World’s Strongest Man Eddie Hall, Olympic long jump champion Greg Rutherford, Tour de France stage winner David Millar and six-time Mr Olympia Dorian Yates: what it takes to win.
