This week, Eddie is in London, looking over a wind-damaged O2 Arena with the man who will be lighting up the ring on the weekend: WBO cruiserweight champion Lawrence Okolie.
Ahead of a crucial bout, Eddie and Lawrence take a step back and look at his career; from being an amateur working at McDonalds, seeing AJ and Usain bolt take London 2012 by storm, to deciding to follow his dream, which led him to Rio 2016, the Commonwealth Games, and eventually to being a world champion.
