But by the time Amir was 17, he had become Britain’s youngest ever boxing Olympic medalist. Now I know a completely different side to Amir than a former world champion. I spent three weeks with him in the jungle and it was brilliant to be reunited with him. In this episode we talk about how his children changed him and how he's dealt with family fallouts. His book new book Fight For Your Life is out now.
