Joined today by top Junior Featherweight contender, Elijah Pierce. Elijah shares what is was like growing up in both, Oklahoma and Atlanta, what's different about the two cities, foods and the Spooner rodeos. We talk about how his kickboxing father's career guided him into the world of boxing, why he fell in love with the sport and who he looked up to. Elijah tells us about his basketball skills, guards he modeled his game after and when he decided to pursue a career in the sweet science. We hear about his illustrious amateur career, why he turned pro before trying to make the Olympic team and that insane pro schedule he had from 2016-18. We chat about the loneliness of boxing, how you mentally deal with a loss, and how he overcame his two year absence from the ring while focusing on his mental health. Elijah reminisces about being contacted by his Bulgarian manager, beating Tramaine Williams, and finding out he's headlining his next fight. We discuss fighting Mike Plania, the nervousness of fighting on TV for the first time, and how he celebrated that epic win. We learn about his legendary and viral weigh-in antics, how and why he has the nickname "WXXXLF", and signing with a new promotion. All this plus hanging with Nick Cannon, calling out all fighters in his division and his dream stadium. IG: https://www.instagram.com/elijah_pierce
