I had the incredible privilege of spending an hour speaking with the new WBA light heavyweight world champion, Danielle Perkins. Danielle is a powerful example of resilience and truly embodies what it means to rebuild one’s life. She was forced to leave behind a career in basketball following a serious accident that, among other things, required her to relearn how to walk. She decided later to give boxing a try, and what began as a passion quickly turned into a second career.She turned professional during the pandemic and competes in a division where securing fights is particularly challenging due to the limited pool of opponents. Despite these obstacles, she remained unwavering in her pursuit of her dreams, demonstrating exceptional discipline—and at 43 years old, she ultimately became a world champion.Enjoy, and if you like my content, follow me on social media at linktr.ee/120secondes !Marie-Eve
