Today's episode is with Australian boxing sensation Paul "Showtime" Fleming.
If you haven't seen or heard from him before and you're wondering why they call him "Showtime" you'll quickly learn.
Like all great fighters he can absolutely talk the talk but mostly importantly he can back it up in the ring.
I met Paul while I was working for Main Event this year and I interviewed him in the ring after his latest victory. His post match interview was so funny and not only went viral but also made me want to learn more about this very unique character.
Paul is a proud indigenous man from far North Queensland who has battled more than just opponents in the ring to get to where he is today.
He survived domestic violence, severe illiteracy, ADHD, mental health issues and a range of other things throughout his life. It derailed what has always been a very promising boxing career that took him to the Olympics as an amateur back in 2008.
But now he is back, more focused than ever and still pushing for that shot at a world title. He is one of the deepest thinkers I've ever spoken to and for a man who couldn't read or write until his mid 20's his view of the world is a lot more educated and informative than a lot of other supposedly highly educated people I've met.
I hope you enjoy our chat.
