On this episode, we catch up with one of the most exciting prospects in the Australian boxing scene, professional lightweight Jacob Ng.
Known in the ring as 'The Flamingo', Jacob's 15-0 professional record (11 by K.O.) has seen him rise into the world top 10 in the IBF and WBO lightweight rankings.
The Gold Coast local breaks the stereotypical mould of a boxer, being one of the more respectful and humble sportspeople you will come across.
We chat about his experience living and fighting in Thailand, why he doesn't engage in trash talking with his opponents, his approach to gratitude and plenty more.
Jacob is currently nursing a shoulder injury but has plans of a huge return to the ring towards the end of 2021.
This is the White Line Podcast, Episode 7, with Jacob 'The Flamingo' Ng.
