Remember The Name

Miscellaneous


In episode two of Remember The Name, we caught up with 2018 Commonwealth Games gold medallist Harry Garside. Garside won gold in the 60kg Lightweight Boxing and has made a name for himself as one of the toughest competitors in the sport. It wasn't always that way though, with Garside only picking up boxing as a way to try and get on the same level as his much bigger brothers. In this chat, we talk about how he took up boxing because of his love of Rocky, the mental space he was in after losing ten of his first 18 fights and how he will stop at absolutely nothing to win gold at the Tokyo Olympics in 2020, even taking up ballet to help his efforts!If you like this chat, make sure to head over to www.sportingnews.com/au to read some of our other boxing content and check out some of the other interviews we have done.
