It's always good catching up with Sonny Bill and seeing what new ceilings have been broken in his life.  This time when we caught up he had just come off a 5-week training camp in Ireland and England with none other than the Heavy-Weight Champion in the world, Tyson Fury as well Kiwi Boxing greats Joseph Parker and David Nyika.  He lets us in on his time and the little challenge that Fury set him on the first day of training.

He takes us back to his childhood days and how his parents taught him to stand up for what he thought was right - no matter the consequences.

Sonny chats about some of his failings during his lengthy career and how he was able to learn and grow from those experiences and achieve success at the highest level of the different sports he's been involved in.

He shares how his faith has given him the self-confidence to get out onto the other side of the camera as a commentator and how it anchors him as a way to look after his mental wellbeing.

Always an informative and educational discussion when we catch up.
