On a Mission Podcast - A podcast by Ellie McKay - Mondays
Categories:
This week I’m on a mission with Sky Sports pundit and long-reigning WBO cruiserweight champion, Johnny Nelson in this incredibly emotional interview. Johnny had a disastrous beginning to life in the pros and took some hard lessons as he tells us how being publicly shamed after a world title fight left him in an extremely dark place. In this raw and extremely honest interview, we get to hear firsthand how Johnny clawed his way to success against all the odds with the support of his legendary coach Brendan Ingle whole also trained “Prince" Naseem Hamed, Junior Witter, and Kell Brook. It’s an emotional, engaging and inspiring interview, with so much wisdom shared. BEST MOMENTS ‘If you do well once people say it’s luck but if you keep repeating that you are doing something right’ ‘If I was a stronger man I would have seriously considered taking my own life’ ‘As long as I believed I was the best then I performed the best’ ‘Naysayers can come in all shapes and sizes’ ‘the lesson I learnt was mental strength’ ‘Everyone needs one discipline in their life’ VALUABLE RESOURCES On A Mission - https://omny.fm/shows/on-a-mission Johnny Nelson - https://johnnynelsonfoundation.org YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/EllieMckay
