Former world super-middleweight champion Richie Woodhall has worked as a pundit since retiring from the ring. He's covered the Olympics for more than 20 years as well as big fights in the UK and overseas, working for a host of networks including the BBC and BT Sport. But Richie had a fabulous career of his own. He won Commonwealth gold and Olympic bronze, losing in the Seoul Olympics to the brilliant Roy Jones Jnr. As a pro, trained by his dad Len, he won 26 and lost just three times, boxing the likes of Joe Calzaghe, Markus Beyer, Glenn Catley, Keith Holmes, Sugarboy Malinga and Silvio Branco. Now a Team GB coach, this is possibly the most intimate interview of his career. He talks about his transition to 'civilian' life after boxing, the big fights, his late father and the contests he could have had. There's the crazy stories around the Holmes fight in the US, his friendship with Calzaghe and much more. Boxing Life Stories is now on Patreon.
