Physical trauma is, on the surface, much harder to stomach than any
emotional pain. Imagine choosing between sparring a few rounds with
a boxer compared to being called a few names. The choice seems
easy. But, as an elite boxer watches cuts and bruises heal after a
big fight, they say it's the emotional scars that can last a
lifetime. Olympic bronze medallist boxer David Price has faced the
worst of both. Price has suffered both internet abuse and brutal
knock-downs. He admits to crying (in a positive way!) ahead of his
last fight against Alexander Povetkin and argues that physical pain
is much easier to handle than the mental. Plus, USA boxing coach
Billy Walsh gives us some tips on how to stay in the best mental
condition. LINKS: PEOPLE’S FIGHTERS:
