Hey, guys.

It's Tris Dixon here.

Before we get to the podcast, I wanted to talk to you about a few things I am working on.

Over on YouTube, search up Built Different Boxing, and you'll find my new show, Built Different, where I take you behind the scenes with fighters, athletes, and coaches to show you what makes them tick.

Yes, I'm also jumping in with the workouts.

Ouch.

Um, [laughs] and so far we've had Johnny Nelson, Dalton Smith, Harlem Eupank, Ryan Garner, and Chris Billam-Smith is on the way.

It's actually been one of the most fulfilling journeys of my career, trying to do something different, trying to show that I'm built different from your no- normal journalists, and show why these athletes are built different.

And it wouldn't be possible without Applied Nutrition and their support.

Yes, I use their pre-workout, creatine, protein powder, and their electrolytes have done wonders for my recovery.

If you use the code BUILTDIFFERENT, all one word, you get 20% off all of their products, and the Vinto electrolytes are an absolute hit in our house.

Built Different is also brought to you in association with London Diamonds.

Whatever special occasion you have coming up, or if you're ready to pop the question, London Diamonds has you covered.

They were the perfect fit for my wife and I when we picked out our engagement rings, and they've been in our corner ever since.

Check them out on Instagram, @londondiamondsofficial.

Say you've seen this or you've heard this podcast, and then say that Tris has sent you, and I'm sure they'll look after you.

So check them out at London Diamonds Official on Instagram.

One final thing is I am now writing on Substack with unique features, exclusive interviews, retro pieces, interviews, and opinion columns.

It's all going up there, and they're both free and paid subscription levels.

So if you really want to support my work, and I mean really, really want to support my work, please join Substack.

Find the boxing stack and join the fun.

Like I said, you can join for free, but it makes a massive difference.

Anyway, appreciate you weren't here for the sales pitch, but you got one, and now here is the podcast.
