Season 6: Episode 06: Lawrence Okolie

I am FINALLY joined by my first world champion boxer this week! Lawrence Okolie sat down with me just after retaining his WBO Cruiserweight title (well, not literally straight after, but you know what I mean!).

He may have zoomed in from his bed (!), but the champion spoke all about growing up in a Nigerian household and how he STILL doesn’t know how to make jollof rice, his unique success story and his book, Dare to Change Your Life.

He opens up about his relationship with food as a child; he was overweight and bullied and sought comfort in food and we bond over the fact we both used to skive of off school sports.

As an athlete, he explains how he structures his time in the lead up to a fight, sparring with Anthony Joshua and why he decided to become vegan!
