Ep. 326 - Billy "The Hammer" Polkinghorn
Description
Professional Boxer in the Super Lightweight division Billy "The Hammer" Polkinghorn joins Tommy for a chat about growing up in Essex, the choice to start amateur boxing, then moving to Australia to couch surf and commit to going into the pros. The boys discuss how the All Stars Boxing helped Billy in his No Limit journey after a whopping 196 fights in the Amateurs, his most 3 previous fights in only 3 months and his future goals, especially the British title before wrapping up with the guest questions. Was unreal to get another legend on who is honing his craft in the biffing. Enjoy trendsetters!
