  • Canadian Olympic Boxing Trials Finalist | Divesh Patel (EP06)

    In this episode, I’m joined by Divesh Patel: a boxing coach, former Team Canada athlete, and someone who’s on a mission to make boxing accessible to everyone.
    We dive deep into his journey:
    From fighting in schoolyards as a teenager…
    To earning a spot at Olympic Trials…
    To training with Team Canada’s national team…
    To ultimately walking away from competition to pursue coaching full-time.
    We talk about:
    – Losing three fights in a row and bouncing back
    – What it really takes to make a national team
    – The mental toll of boxing
    – Why initiative is everything
    – And why he chose impact over personal glory
    Divesh also shares how growing up in Montreal shaped him, how he’s influencing the brown community in combat sports, and why he’s committed to making boxing less intimidating for the next generation.
