Podcast Description
Welcome to Fighting To Recover Podcast — Real Stories. Raw Truth. No Filters.
This podcast dives deep into the lives of fighters, boxers, coaches, doormen, addicts, and everyday people with extraordinary stories.
We speak with those who’ve walked through fire—bare-knuckle fighters, boxers from rough gyms, MMA coaches, CrossFit athletes, former addicts, and street-level survivors who turned pain into purpose.
From club doors and hay bale scraps to cage fights, boxing rings, and gym floors, these conversations expose what it really takes to survive—and rebuild.
Many of our guests have lived through addiction, violence, and loss… and now dedicate their lives to reviving others—through training, loyalty, and hard-earned discipline.
Whether it’s helping an addict get clean, a young fighter stay off the streets, or building a business from scratch—this is what redemption looks like.
🎧 What You’ll Hear:
Raw stories from boxers, MMA fighters, and streetwise coaches
How gym culture saves lives and creates structure
Inside the fight scene: promoting shows, mentoring fighters, building legacies
First-hand stories of addiction, relapse, recovery, and brotherhood
How strength isn’t just physical—it’s in owning your past and showing up for others
If you’re into boxing, MMA, recovery, real-life grit, and the fight behind the fight, this is your place.
📌 New episodes every other week. Real talk only. No egos. Just stories that hit.
