Boxing world champion Jai Opetaia - Get the Edge with Hayden Knowles podcast

At the time of recording Jai is at the top of his game with a professional record of 22-0 with 17 wins by KO . He has so much more to come. Boxing is and always has been his life. He was the youngest heavy weight boxer in history at an Olympic Games for Australia in 2012 and 10 years later in 2022 is the Cruiser weight champion of the world after a 12 round war with Latvian Mairis Briedis where Jai famously
fought on with a broken jaw in round 3 and another break on the other side of his jaw in round 11. We talk about mindset required, the power of when it means so much to you what is possible. Learning to be a pro and much more. Episode supported by www.painaway.com.au

I’m from the UK 🇬🇧 and been following Jai for a while now, I think the advice you gave him to Stay Authentic to Himself is the Best Advice Ever! Jai will be Loved More by Who He Is than being any Fake Sh1t! He’s signed with the Best Promoter (in my opinion) and He now has the backing of H.E. Turki Alalshikh, but Staying Authentic and Real to Himself is the Best Advice and The Way Forward! Great Interview, the best I’ve seen with Jai and the most relaxed I’ve ever seen him! Thanks for a great interview! 💯👏👏👌
