- I'll be sharing a personal story about overcoming fear to achieve success in Olympic boxing. It's a narrative I've never shared before, recounting my experience in the semi-finals of the 2008 Beijing Olympics. Interestingly, Deontay Wilder fought on the same day after my match against Kenny Egan.

Sure.

What are you talking about? Olympic boxing = game. What is there to be afraid of? Get more points than your opponent.
Yes for sure !!
No.
I've boxed, kickboxed, and wrestled many years of my life. Now, at 47, recently married, and have two stepkids (hotheaded teens), I decided to watch Tony to get some refreshers since they are asking me about fighting. I'm glad I found him. He taught me a few techniques and allowed me to get refreshed so I could teach my kids properly how to box (in the ring only). Thanks Tony.
thanks amte, appreacite this message, I wish you all the best
You are saving those kids lives from the human grinder consuming souls in misery pilotted by the devil himself.
You accomplished a hell of an achievement in even getting to the Olympics let alone winning an Olympic medal. Thanks for sharing Tony...both your story and your knowledge!
Appreciate it mate
How do you qualify for the olympics anyways
@@chrissmith5961olympic qualifiers?
@@mqwrz when do those happen, and if u wanna be picked for the national team is there any requirement or can you just participate in the qualifiers
More legit than any of the weight class champions out there. This man is a freaking gold mentalist
You need that fear , it's what keeps you alert and focused , or at least that's how I feel about it .
I only boxed as an amateur , but I can definitely relate Tony . I used to be so nervous before a fight , but as soon as that bell went it was like a switch was pushed and everything else became almost non existent , it's an amazing feeling that I've never been able to come close to in anything else I've ever done .
I had my first amateur fight a few months ago and the months leading up I had terrible anxiety(struggled mightily all my life with anxiety). The weeks before the fight I started really envisioning every small detail. Warming up in the back, the walk out, if my opponent did this or that. It helped so much I felt no bad anxiety the day of the fight, came out and performed and got it done.
Appreciate all the info you give us. Means a ton.
Well done on your first fight,wish you all the best, from an old pugilist, Melbourne Aust
@@johnapperley6291 I appreciate you! All the best to you from the states 🤝🏼
I'll fight
You helped me get into boxing thank you bro your underrated💪
Glad to hear it mate 👊
Not underrated by many, and not for long. Top bloke Tony! @@Tony_Jeffries
This man’s humility is on another level. Truly an inspiration
St. Paul says life is like an athletic event. We train and compete. The important part is doing our best and finishing well. Glad to see that sentiment in this video
St. Paul was using sports as a metaphor for something much more important than sport... for the spiritual journey and following Christ to find salvation. Not the same thing as boxing.
Not the same thing as boxing you say. Then how come this story inspired so many of us? Is it not because it is a metaphor for life, and dealing with anxiety and fear?
@@trinidadraj152exactly. He tells us to lay aside the things that hold us back to run for the prize.
Man you’re so inspirational, had all of us practicing boxing on deployment! Master teacher!
Happy to hear that mate 👊
My heart was pounding as you went through the story, I cannot imagine what it must have been like for you, super awesome that you maintained that control over your nerves. Very inspirational.
He explained it so well. Wonderful.
Hello Mr.Jeffries , I am also a boxer from Sri Lanka and I wish to be a great boxer and your tips and techniques have been so helpful so thank you , Staying hard!!!
Thanks mate 👊 Let me know if you have any questions mate
Love everything about this story. This is'nt just an inspiring anecdote for boxing, it's a metaphor for the challenges of life in general. Thanks Tony.
Thank you 🙏🏼
Visualization changed my life in a big way, not only to defeat anxiety but also with reprogramming responses to other things in my life. Thanks a lot for sharing, this technique is talked about often but seldom actually put into routine and practice!
Wow, what an amazing story!! That was great!
Thanks mate, Happy that you loved it
You are a "CLASS ACT"-- Your honesty and vulnerability is such an inspiration!! Thank you!!
Here I am, a newbie to boxing from Romania, listening to this one with my heart in my throat. Best video in a while!
Thank you Tony for every advice and teaching you give us. The best Boxing Teacher❤🥊
Inspirational talk my friend. 😎🇨🇦🥊
Thanks ma man, means a lot 👊

Sometimes in life there’s an “ah hah!” moment that we all have. I just came to the conclusion that I in effect won the lottery; woke up in a nice home, great girl in my life, full belly, no volcanoes earthquakes or wildfires and no one shooting at me. The penny just dropped after 66 years 🇨🇦🥊😎
Fantastic, Tony doesn't give up. He is a winner.
This is a lesson that I needed to be reminded of. It can't be said too often. Also a great story, well told.
Tony, that was a great story, I was there as you told it. It takes a lot to acknowledge when the other guy is just better, it happens sometimes. Congratulations on your Olympic medal ol' boy and thank you for telling the tale and sharing your preparation techniques. All the best, cheers!
Great story Tony! You had me in there with you, feeling the way you described. Youre a good storyteller!! Pls share more.
I always did the visualization in bodybuilding and powerlifting competition. I could see myself winning the trophy, I felt the trophy in my hands, I saw my name on the plaque. I always won!!
I am 23 and I have started boxing because I am very shy and feel absolutely scared of physical touch and being hurt, I feel like I am way too sensible sometimes.
Greetings from Sicily, Catania.
Tony, your Great Britain tattoo is pretty cool looking. And your visualizing advice is the truth. I have done this myself.
Beautiful story! Mesmerizing. Truth is powerful. Remember that! Speak from the heart & we'll always be with you! I'm coming up to see you! 🙋🙏
LEGEND! 🔥🥊🌟
What a standout lad and smart teacher I've been watching for years and always learning something new, whether it be about boxing or just life in general, solid individual mate love to see how much the channel has grown
Thank you 🙏🏼 means alot
Tony most people don't tell there secrets they have a selfish attitude and don't pass them on to people it goes to show how humble and generous you are as a sportsman to pass it on brilliant story keep helping people pal ❤
He is humble it comes across as that way very clear , he’s defo someone worth listening to , if your into boxing or not
My first taste of sparring was in 2020.. I've recently got to a place where I can run drills and spar relaxed at 35 years old.. Life is indeed crazy and I'll say that boxing has been integral in recovering from fifteen years in the revolving door of psychiatric institutions in Austin TX.. I'm terrified that taking invariable blows to the dome will send my diagnosed psychotic mood disorder into places darker than I ever knew possible but I'm scared more of not gloving up.. Thank you for what you do Tony Jeffries!
What an inspirational, humble human being you are Tony! Really enjoy your videos and your totally honest down to earth approach. Thank you
Thank you 🙏🏼 means alot
Possibly one of the best videos I've ever seen in my life thank you Tony
I am just getting into boxing. I had only two trainings so far and it is so different and distant from everything that I’v done in my life up to this point that I have no clue how to approach it.
But I have to say, Tony is like my personal coach. Extremely wise, takented, passionate and well spoken. Tony you are a legend! I am really glad I stumbled across your channel. Thank you for sharing your stories and experiences. Thanks to you, I might keep doing this, because you are such an inspiration. What a man! Cheers from Czech Republic🫶🏽❤️🙌🏼
This is such a powerful video. I often psyche myself out before every sparring match. But now visualizing every detail up to and including the fight - this is key for me now.
Thanks a lot. I have qualifiers in a few days and was really struggling getting my nerves down. You really gave me keys to unlocking the shackles in my head.
Thank you Tony Jeffries, much respect. I'm glad this is a highly practical visualization process tested and forged through fire. Also so glad it wasn't a Cinderella story but that you also honestly give your opponent props, dusted yourself off and went on to a spectacular life. And now inspiring us all across the world. True class - Shukran Mheshimiwa as we say in Swahili - "Thank you Sir"
The reason i respect you is because youre candid as fuck. You can see and admit any weaknesses and didnt badmouth the other guy when you lost.
To me this is a no showpony ego driven bullshit proper champion.
Thanks for your videos too mate.
Hi Tony, Greetings from russia! Thank you for this great story and advice. I am glad that i've learned english so i can watch your videos and improve myself boxing using your experience and techniques.
I wish you health and success in what you do!
Amazing story. Thank you for being a little vulnerable to tell us your experience. Really good
Thank you 🙏🏼
I am an amateur boxer from the Philippines and this video gives me hope on my amateur boxing career..Thank you for this video,may God bless this channel...With love from the Philippines...❤❤❤❤
Loved that story. Loved the fact that you did play not any trick before the fight, although it crossed your mind. Loved your fairplay. Loved your positive mindset. Great storytelling, Great Champion.
There aren’t many champions that know exactly why they are champions. Keep spreading the love you absolute legend of a man. Love from ☘️
You’re a great champion Tony. Any athlete that went up in a big competition will feel all your words. ❤❤ Respect!
Tony, you have to be one of the most inspirational person I have ever known. You are the reason I even considered the wild possibility of me boxing as a hobby. Honestly before I watched all of the amazing videos you put out to help people like me box better, I couldn't even throw a proper jab. You are an inspiration to so many people and especially to me, I'm still a teenager but things you have taught me will resonate with me for my entire life. Cheers! :)
Tony, I tune in to see boxing tips but this was maybe the best content I've seen from you yet. I'm presenting in front of my entire department in two days and public speaking is not a natural talent of mine. I am going to utilize these techniques to try and get this job done as well as I can. Thank you!
Tony you nailed... You have the courage to speak about a loss in this way ...I know what it means... i felt that way... So it's very encouraging to hear and see an honourable man who speaks true experience ... actually about his loss...not just bullshit about inspiration and etc... please share more videos like this! Stay safe and strong ❤
And here is me, 43, started kick boxing 2 years ago, shitting ny pants while sparring😂😂😂
Done bit of karate everyone is nervous before a fight doesn’t matter how many you have try not to show it nerves are good they give you energy and motivation
@@CFCseventy did karate for 4 years, but then quit it, and went to kickbox gym
nice
Try to relax and have fun with it next time
Thank you for sharing your perspective! As a fellow boxer, I can definitely relate to the power of visualization and anticipation in achieving our goals. It's not just about boxing; it's a universal tool for navigating life and finding the motivation to push through. Appreciate your insights 👊
I can see that you are a great likable humble guy. Thanks Tony. You are gold bro
I needed to hear this today
I've got a match on Sunday and I'm dealing with nerves right now . Thank you
Good luck
How'd it go?
Very helpful. I’ll try to use this, cheers Tony
Very inspiring and motivating Tony. Thank you for making us better fighters and better humans. God Bless You and your family.
Extremely interesting to hear what you felt, and how you dealt with the expectations, fear and pressure, and learn about your experiences. This experience and wisdom is not only useful for boxing or sports. An elite athlete who is humble and modest, great combination!
Thank you very much for this video! These are the things that really matter the most I think, because it's always decieded in our heads. Cus d mato said the physical part of boxing is so minor as 10% when the mind is 90%. Learning to deal with these feelings and thoughts which matters more than everything. Because going to gym is easy. Learning the slip is easy. Doing 1000 sit ups is easy. But dealing with your fears,anxiety and controlling your inner thoughts is the hard part.
Wish to see more like this!
Great ,unforgettable story. Not many people have opportunity to experience this feelings whole their's live. Congratulations mr.Tony
Here's what i like to do:
I convince myself that i'm really excited about the task at hand. Like a madman who craves the activity itself. The outcome doesn't matter, the surroundings don't matter.. all that matters is that i get to experience the task, that i get to feel the pleasure of playing.
I do this a lot, and i've gotten really good at it. Maybe you need to be a bit of a madman, but it really helps.
Neurologically, there is no difference between fear and excitement. That means, if we contextualize our feelings of fear/anxiety as excitement it becomes a positive experience rather than something to be avoided.
A good way to do this is physically verbalizing statements like:
"Let's gooooo!"
Or
"Oh, hell yeah!"
Or
"This makes me feel alive!"
Thanks Tony. Great video and inspirational. Even more so when you talk about the fight not going your way. It didn't matter and it doesn't matter, you took care of your bit. 👍
We need more stories like this from fighters
My son is 14 and wants to learn to box. I’m going to help him get started using your videos and then find a local trainer or gym so he can work with others.
Thanks so much for sharing your expertise with all of us!
I’ll check back in after a few months and tell you how it’s going.
All the best from Vermont USA.
As you said, the practice of visualization is useful in the ring and in life. Thank you, Tony!
Hey, this was different. I appreciate it. I have a fight coming up in London. This was what I needed now. Thank you.
Brilliant talk, Hat's off to Tony. I do this before I go to the gym, imagine how it will feel, know you might falter and fail that day, there's always tomorrow. Somedays you have bad days and somedays you do so well it feels amazing.
Thank you 🙏🏼 and your right
You're a proper champion, Tony. In and out of the ring. Thanks for all your work, it's very much appreciated.
You did yourself justice and that is the most important thing, the worst thing to do is not to loose but to feel you didn't do as well you could have so this is a very good video for those just starting out.
Tony, Thank you for sharing your story with me. I don't have a coach in real life to train me, but I am damn thankful you are here for me, and I am thankful to be learning from one of the best.
Amazing Story, My heart rate went up just listening to you. My fear is finally getting into the ring, Now I know what I am going to listen to before a fight. Cheers "You are better than him."
Holy crap just when i was pondering to myself after a spar i see this as i open youtube, Thank you Tony
liked this video. insightful and humble. it's something i try to teach my son in sports. don't concentrate on the result, prepare and try you hardest. because the worst thing is not knowing how good you could be. thumbs up from Dublin, Ireland
nice advice Tony!!
im 13 and im a newbie at boxing, but watching your vids "boosts my confidence!!"
This is applicable to everything thanks for this story. You’re inspiring!
Did not know this guy, but he won my heart with his way of telling his story.
Great guy!
Awesome, Thank you 🙏🏼
Thanks Tony, I needed to hear this. Appreciate you man
Ive just started boxing, Im doing this for a few reasons, to lose weight and get fit, to learn discipline and how to fight. But mainly just to improve myself, i really enjoy your channel and the lessons you teach, you are a wonderful and amazing man! thank you !
A great story well told Tony. In a way the humility with which you describe defeat is the most impressive of all.
That was 15 minutes I really enjoyed,I hope it sinks in... Thanks man ❤
This is brilliant. I’m an amateur coach in the UK and I’ll be getting all the kids to watch this 👊

Tony, this story is making me start considering becoming an amateur boxer more and more. Could you make a video telling us about your upbringing as a boxer and how and where you started?
THANKS JEFFREY !1 FROM ARGENTINA , I RESPECT YOU A LOT
Thanks for sharing the honest and inspiring story Tony more power to you ❤
Beautiful story Tony. Thanks for sharing. I'll start visualizing before my sparring sessions.
Hey Tony.
I wanna start off by saying that this video found me at an incredible time. It renewed a confidence in myself to accomplish goals that I had accepted for a while would be unattainable.
I’m a big fan of your videos and your wisdom that you pass on. I’d love to say I’m an amateur fighter, but enthusiast is more like it.
I know it’s a stretch, but I’d love to send you footage of some of my training and see if I can have even just the most general advice.
Regardless if that would be okay or not; thank you for the content and sharing your stories. They help all of us more than you know, Champ🙏🏼
Best advice from the best TH-cam coach!
Thank you Jimmy
What a story!! Love it!
1% better every day
Thanks Tony
The story had much meaning.
Thank you for telling us, and told you did very well.
Thank you Mr. Jeffries...
Tony, you re big. Excellent video. All the best from Argentina. 🙋♂
Tony, thanks for relaying this experience for us so intensely. Very engaging. Makes me want to get in the zone.
Thank you 🙏🏼
At that level of sports it’s not about who is better. Athletes are equally good.its about how you prep - mostly knowing the rules and sticking to a game plan that gets you the points
not true at all, some people are just better, everybody works hard everyone prepares
@@eclisis5080 people are just better? look what happened to Mike Tyson against ' Buster Douglas " and Manny Pacqiuao and Marquez. These are fights where one boxer is better but due to hard work and determination - the odds are in favour during those fights. So explain yourself again, people just happen to be better? Is it genetics? tell me.
@@a_l7515 Mike Tyson didn't train for buster douglas and was doing cocaine with hookers the night before, while Buster Douglas was in the best shape of his life motivated by his mother's death, you can look at Douglas' physique against Tyson and see how was fat and out of shape against holyfield
Pacquaio always had problems with Marquez that's why they fought so many times, because people felt like Marquez was robbed in a couple of those fights, Marquez is a hall of famer lmao
Awesome information man. Thanks....I started naturally doing those visualizations several months ago as I eat, sleep, and breathe Boxing , visualizations began to come to me... 💪
Great story Tony. You’ve climbed ladders 99% of us will never (be able to) climb and inspired us to keep going.
Rather have the words of a Man than of a mere musclehead any day -Thank You Tony! Respect🙏🏼
Thank you. I struggle with my fears in sparring. I will try to use this technic.
Very valuable video Tony, you are sharing gold nuggets. Visualisation - I learned this from my sensei, competing I karate I the mid eighties. I used it like you before competing and I have used it later in my life every time I had to go into a situation where I can lose or win. From speeches to combat. Even when I proposed to my wife I used visualisation. You are sharing real advices, that works.
You're inspiring me. I started learning boxing watching your videos few months ago
I love this very genuine, kind bloke
Thank you 🙏🏼
Very good Mr.Jeffries,there's alot of places the fighter goes right before a fight in his head that none fighters will ever know.belive it or not when was coming to the ring before a fight I would think of Christmas when I was a kid it would slow my heart rate,give me a little inner calm and make me focus a little more..watched ya fights T.J. ,you throw them hands pretty dam good dude!
That was nice story. The best content on your channel until now, in my opinion (and i'm not painter, i was boxer amateur between '88-'92, so i'm able to appreciate any content about fight technique)
All of you videos and instructions are great! The nuances you point out, and the principles, outstanding! I consider you one of my boxing trainers.
Tony, thank you for this great personal story. As I listened , it is not just a great story about boxing that you used visualization it is a great technique that we can all use about Life. Thank you man and the best to you 🥊🤙🌎
Enjoyed listing Tony; You’re a solid, down to earth guy who focuses on realistic approaches and responses. Your guidance is highly appreciated and utilized in both my boxing and day to day living. You got a good head, a good heart and you keep it real! Keep doing what you do. 👍
Bro, you're INTENSE. I believe you, visualization...
