About this listen

 Former WBC super-middleweight champion Robin Reid took Olympic bronze at the 1992 Barcelona Games. He won his world title on the road, made three defences, including against Yorkshire hardman Henry Wharton before losing his crown in an upset to Sugar Boy Malinga. Reid also famously boxed the likes of Joe Calzaghe – for many giving the brilliant Welshman his hardest fight – Brian Magee, Sven Ottke, Carl Froch and Jeff Lacy. But things didn't work out as he imagined they would. Here, in a rare interview, Reid bares his soul, remembering the best and worst of his career and talking for the first time in detail about his struggles in life after boxing. This is unmissable, and the 200th episode of Boxing Life Stories. Brought to you by Hanson Lee Resourcing and Delco Safety Compliance. Learn more about your ad choices.

Thought Robin would of came across super confident and maybe a little arrogant. How wrong was I, lovely humble fella. I'll never be so quick to judge a person again. Hope things turn out well for him. Excellent listen,and an excellent podcast
