For this episode I spoke w/ John Esposito, NJ based Muay Thai fighter who lost his legs while conducting roadside work in December of 2021.

John spoke to me about his discovering of Muay Thai, his bouts against some of the best fighters in the tri-state area and the day that changed his life forever.

We spoke about his memories from the day itself as well as the immediate aftermath, the process of learning to walk again on prosthetic limbs, getting back into training and his plans to fight again in the future.

John's attitude towards his situation and his future is truly exceptional and inspiring. Hope you enjoy the episode
