Reece invites Jeff Horn on the show. The pair discuss one of the most extraordinary and unforgettable journeys in Australian boxing, from being bullied as a young kid and finding confidence through boxing, to representing Australia at the Olympic Games and ultimately becoming a world champion.
Jeff takes us behind the scenes of the moment his entire life changed when he stepped into a packed Suncorp Stadium to face one of the greatest boxers of all time, Manny Pacquiao. He opens up about the pressure, the fear, the belief and the unbelievable feeling of hearing the final decision announced in his favour.
But becoming world champion was only the beginning.
Jeff speaks candidly about the controversy surrounding the Pacquiao fight, the weight of suddenly carrying a world title, defending his crown, and the brutal reality of losing it to Terence Crawford.
The pair then explore the next chapter of Jeff’s career, including his explosive 96 second victory over Anthony Mundine, his battles with Michael Zerafa, and his final fight against Tim Tszyu that ultimately brought his professional boxing career to an end.
Jeff reveals what it was really like walking away from boxing, why he turned down huge offers to return to the ring, and what happens when the identity you’ve built your entire life around is suddenly gone.
Beyond the lights, stadiums and world titles, Jeff opens up about fatherhood, family, his life after boxing, his work fighting bullying and the lessons that only years of sacrifice, victory and defeat can teach you.
This is not simply a conversation about boxing.
It is a story about being underestimated.
It is a story about resilience.
It is a story about proving yourself when nobody else believes you can.
