I met with Salah 'BEAST' Khalifa to discuss how it was growing up on the streets of London, from fighting in gangs and getting into serious trouble to becoming a three-time World Champion. He goes on to discuss how his family encouraged him to use his fighting passion in the ring instead of on the streets. He is now inspiring people of all ages from all over the world, this is a must listen episode from a man that has been there and done it.
''Growing up I didn’t have any great role models apart from my father, I wanted to change that for the upcoming generation. I then decided that by becoming a champion I would show that nothing is impossible and that all of your dreams no matter how big can be achieved, also I thought that my community needed someone that would bring it up and give the locals the power to rise up together and make a dent in the world to be remembered''
