Buncey sits down with former Olympic champion Audley Harrison. At the Sydney Olympics in 2000, he won Britain鈥檚 first ever super-heavyweight gold and their first in the ring for 32 years. He talks Buncey through his journey from a young and hungry novice to standing on the top step of the podium. They discuss how that moment led to improved funding and laid the foundations for the state-of-the-art set-up which has since produced seven more gold medals in the ring for Team GB. He also recalls how being asked to shave his beard was instrumental in him winning that gold.
