Experience Brian’s “Rags to Riches” journey to induction into the International Boxing Hall Of Fame. From his early boxing days at just 9 years old, to turning pro in 1981, to winning the SA Champion title in 1983, and his Big Break 1986 when Sol Kerzner arranged a WBA World Title Fight along with Stan Christodolou at Sun City. Brian shares how he became World Champion at 25, the intense training involved in staying at the top, interesting stories of who he met along the way, and reliving breath-taking match highlights, through to going off the rails and his two marriages - all Brian’s life experiences, the highs and lows, are recalled in a casual and powerfully honest way.
