Dom is a Northampton Light Heavyweight boxer who has interacted with and sparred the A List of British Boxing including Brendan Ingle, Frank Buglioni, George Groves, James Degale, Dan Azeez, Idris Virgo, Tommy Fury and lots more.
Dom talks us through his record and shares with us his incredible insights from behind the scenes of boxing including the role of crafty journeymen, the tricks promoters will play on your if you’re not the home fighter, the stress of selling tickets to make it as a pro boxer and his pure love of learning more about boxing.
Our conversation (while it focusses on boxing) touches on motivation, self-belief, exposing your strengths and weaknesses to the world, dealing with setbacks and navigating the moving parts of being a professional athlete.
Dom is a fantastic storyteller with a brain for boxing like we’ve rarely seen before. He talks us through his journey securing a license as a mature boxer, his experiences training on the road and hopes for his and his family’s future.
