Video Diaries Season 3, Episode 6: Teenage Diaries: Raging Bullock

0 0 • 0.0/10

For Ben May , living in Peckham and boxing mad, adolescence is not an angst-ridden phase full of problems, it is simply an extended training session on the road to a professional boxing career. At the age of 15, he has already been boxing for seven years and is the British ABA champion at his weight. For him there is no dilemma - boxing is much more than a punch-up, it is a highly developed skill which demands dedication. It also represents his only chance to "earn bundles".
