Summary

A while ago, Tris Dixon was a guest on the Anthony Ogogo podcast, Getting Back Up.... Here it is. Hello, this is probably the most engaging interview I've done so I figured I would share it. Anthony did his homework and really shocked me with his preparation and this was a deep dive into my life and journey, and I shared things I'd actually completely forgotten about. I hope you enjoy it. Follow me on Instagram, X and TikTok. This collection of interviews is available on… YouTube iTunes Spotify And all good podcast platforms. Tris Dixon covered his first amateur boxing fight in 1996. The former editor of Boxing News, he has written for a number of international publications and newspapers, including GQ and Men’s Health. He has been a broadcaster for TNT Sports and hosts the popular “Boxing Life Stories” podcast. Dixon is a British Boxing Hall of Famer, an International Boxing Hall of Fame elector, and the author of five boxing books, including “Damage: The Untold Story of Brain Trauma in Boxing” (shortlisted for the William Hill Sportsbook of the Year), “Warrior: A Champion’s Search for His Identity” (shortlisted for the Sunday Times International Sportsbook of the Year) and “The Road to Nowhere: A Journey Through Boxing’s Wastelands.” Learn more about your ad choices.
